That was actually the last thing I bought.

I haven't actively browsed/used this forum in many years and it's no longer an accurate representation of me.

I have retired from genre-specific content creation after 13 years, but I'll always love this little genre in my own personal way.

why do you keep her sealed lol?
Even worse than sealed game collectors are those who buy figures (which indeed are there to LOOK and OBSERVE at) and keep them in their shelf to sell them someday again or whatever.

Open it, unjail her! :x

I like the box.

Dusting is annoying.

Yes, the shadow is a bit wrong there as you can see in the image I showed him to work with:

I got this as such a crazy cheap price, so I can't really complain. But when I get my next tattoo from him, I'll ask him to fix the shadow.

Just some advice for next time - a cheap tat is not necessarily a good tat - it is on your body for life after all.

Looks good though :)
What more can I say I wouldn't be here today if the old school didn't pave the way.

I got it cheap as the artist is a childhood friend. I really like his work:
http://www.citytattoo.nu/ (His name is Freddan)

I think he messed up the shadow there because he told a joke and I bursted into laughter all of a sudden. But as the tattoo fades (new ones are strikingly sharp but fades pretty fast) it'll look better I'm sure.

I want a Mr. Saturn.

My most recent purchase was both Magic Knight Rayearth box sets and a Princess Tutu box set. I have a pic, but I doubt any of you care anyway. :P

Got both of these the same week. Decided to start collecting superplay vhs tapes. Pretty hard to find, but it is really cool seeing stuff that's 10+ years old, especially if you are a superplay whore, which I am. :D

Try 20+ years and then we'll talk. *pats Konami VHS tape from '87*

Ahem...

[ Picture of RETRO GAME CHALLENGE here ]

Yay!

I got this game and forgot about everything else!

Made it all the way to the last challenge of Guadia Quest on my first play of the game; now I've just got to do that last challenge for...I dunno, some reason or other. Unlock that final option on the main menu.

This be a Sony PVM 2030

I was in amazement with playing Batsugun on RGB and now I can have the same pleasure at home! I am sure I could have got bigger and better model (grrrr @ mrtie :lol: ) but I have no patience and could use something to mess around with right now. I have a lot to learn…

What's on that Garegga CD? Is it the OST? And what's on that small paper? Could you maybe scan it?

Both VHS's look absolutely beautiful! Nice find! :)

Thanks!

The CD is the Garegga OST and the small paper is the insert. Inside is the reg card as well. I'd have to find a place to scan it as I don't have a scanner, but I'll look into it.
