Any chances for a 200 dpi scan of the cover, skykid?

I gotta save something for my 10k post.

Ok, keep posting than.

bought some tape, paper and boxes to organize my pcb's a bit.



Ajax isn't shown because I need a bigger box for it. The pcb is monstrous.

[drboom]

I have definitely found that no matter what boxes I find to keep my PCB's tidy, I always have a PCB that will not fit into said boxes.

USPS boxes? I love getting those things when I get mail from the USA, they fit most PCBs perfectly >_>

I absolutely agree! Really good boxes

I didn't actually buy this; I got this as birthday present.

I heard from the person who gave this that this Vic Viper model is only of its kind in existence; it was hand-made by some taiwanese guy who makes models for living and sells them in ebay.

You can clearly see all the attention to detail, though I was not able to focus the camera properly (I had 38.4C fever when I took these on my friends camera)

I can put up better pics of this if someone is interested

BEYOND AMAZE!!!

Beltiana looks like she's going to give Jeeno head.
Sure that's not a hentai doujin you just bought? ^_-

Wish it was, then I could just spank off and not have to worry about not being able to read it.

Got my new toy in the mail today, pro quality A3+ prints at home . Soooo if anyone needs flyers, movestrips etc... (seriously though, let me know, I've gotta pay for this beast)

^Start a sales thread of stuff you could do? (I know i'll be in need of cps2 labels, etc in the near future).

I agree, I'd gladly pay for a good quality print out of a few flyers/art I can't find. Xexex for one.

Its the old Altelier Sai kit. Not rare at all, ebay's still flooded with em. Also, you're missing the left engine cover.

I personally don't give two shits about manga. never developed an interest.

Thanks dude. I think in this case it's more about extreme obscurity (and Batsugun theme) than the content of the object itself, embarrassingly.

yeah, there's a lot of extra space for some, but they did end up fitting 8 of 9 of my boards, so not too bad.

Nice labels! BTW: you should be storing those boxes on their side to prolong the life of the PCB, not flat as pictured.

[drboom]

Especially if there is a Garegga in there - very short legs on some of the chips and if it sits flat for too long, it can easily separate, according to the guy who just repaired mine.

[ratikal]

To those guys who have the Batsugun art...ALL OF MY MONEY, TAKE ALL OF IT.

Fucking FINALLY. I've wanted one of these forever.

Saw it in the display case at the local game store last night, decided to go for it over dinner across the street but they were closed when I went back afterward. Called as soon as they opened today and they held onto it for me.

They knocked it down to 20 bucks since it didn't have the battery pack, got an AC adaptor for it and they included the car adaptor. Tested it out and everything seems to work fine, definitely excited to have it. Can't wait to play Virtua Racing on it!

I'm conflicted though, part of me really wants to replace the screen with a nice one but the rest of me feels guilty at the idea of modding such a rarity

After getting a couple of the green tea Kit Kat's in the mail from rancor, I had to have more - these ones from Asian Grocer.com Too good. The dark chocolate ones beat the hell out of the ones we have here in the states.

[PC Engine Fan X!]

It's possible to buy those Japanese Strawberry flavored Kit-Kats at the local FYE stores but they charge a whopping $9.99 USD for a full bundled box deal though. The white chocolate Kit Kats are ace in my book...Target sells them at the checkstands within easy reach if so desired. Ever since Hershey shut down their manufacturing plants in both the USA & Canada and relocating to Mexico, I've noticed that the quality of the candies has gone downhill (a lot more candy defects are present nowdays inside the traditional Hershey packaging). There's no excuse for this type of shoddy "quality control" issue though.

PC Engine Fan X! ^_~

[sven666]

no not the game, just got a brand new 20" CRT for my cabaret style cabinet, perfect image!
got a 39" aswell but havent even brought it home from storage yet, gonna give building my own cab a go pac-matt666 here we gooooooo!!!

[drboom]

I'm hoping that one of the Asian markets here in Chicago carries these Kit Kats - got to take a look on the weekend. They are seriously like crack.

I'll get around to it eventually, I need to figure out how everything works, fair prices etc. first. In the mean time you can always pm me.

even if they're bubble wrapped? Oh well, I'll go turn em over.

They'll be perfectly fine like that - it distributes the weight after all. Just don't keep them flat with stupid board feet attached.
