February 2015 : Post your finds

[Taco]

My step dad works at target canada and since they're closing down he got me all these for free. 


Fronts and backs of the first four video game signs, the amiibo one is for my younger brother


Fronts and backs of skylander ones that I'm selling since no one likes them at my house, plus I have an extra PS4 in the Nathan drake one

Skylanders trap team double sided cardboard cut out that I'm also selling

Spider-Man cardboard cut out display for spider man toys for the gf for valentines day


Same as the spider man one these are toy display cut outs, the droids and storm trooper are more Bristol board then that weird cardboard stuff
Also I think my favourite one;

He also brought home a deep fryer and I also got a pokemon xd in like perfect condition with the little poster ad for free!

oh man sorry about the shitty quality that's apple products for ya

I think I saw that auction. That was the one with the Apollo 11 pinball machine, right? It was about an hour and a half away, and I've been looking to start an arcade collection, but decided not to go, as I had work and have no way of taking it home.

Nice find though! I entirely envy you.

That was the one.  I'm in Rochester.  I had to work a double after the auction (and technically had to work before the auction too, but put a vacation sheet in) and woo... was exhausted, but worth it   Thanks man.

@BadChad:  Thanks for the links.  I've seen a couple replacements for the EL panels, gonna look into one eventually.  My buddy's got a Gold cab too, so we'll probably both do it at the same time.

Another pickup from my games wanted craigslist ad. Got everything here for $60. He said it was a 250gb so seeing 320 was nice.

[Hoggs17]

Not necessarily a fan of rare/expensive games but I got it for $125 (pretty good price considering what it can go for), the label is clean and I got a Nintendo sleeve (not those crappy all black ones).  Why can't anyone put up Mega Man X2 and 3 on CL now?  I'm waiting...sigh.

Dear lord I think I sold my copy of that for like 20 bucks about 7-8 years ago.

I got my back up Roselina in from GAME, and they fro some reason shipped it in one of the boxes Nintendo sends to stores, in the pic is a US one from Target for comparison.

I also got Iron Solder for the Jaguar CIB for $15 or so.


There was a price sticker on it I can't get all of it off.

I don't normally collect atari stuff but I couldn't pass on this lot lol.  someone donated all of their atari games to my local goodwill and all of these manuals were rubber banded together.  There's about 30 manuals and s9netimes 10 catalogs in the pile and all of their respective games are still at the goodwill.  I don't have an atari so paying 4 bucks a cart wasn't worth it to me right now

-not sure why photo bucket is inverting the colors on the picture :/ will try to have a good up asap

I picked this Model 1 Sega CD up for $20.  It doesn't work, but I'm confident that it's just the fuse.  My fingers are crossed.






I also picked up this Atari lot for $10.  No idea if it works yet, but I figured why not?

Had some pretty nice hauls the last few days.

First a few odds and ends (the G+W are NEW) ->





Then just yesterday I had a giant MD/Gen lot pick up. Paid quite a lot for them all
but there is so much quality in there and half of the games are basicall brand new as the
guy I got them from bought half of the games new and only played them a few times.
Also included was a first model JP Mega Drive with mods and a Sega micro switch arcade stick.





I suppose though anyone can see why I absolutely needed that lot.

[sheep2001]

Gaiares, Musha and Probotector in 1 pick up?  That's it - i'm moving to Austria.  Why are your pick ups always so bloody amazing Tik?

[Thom Grayson]

Metroid Prime Trilogy Collector's Edition
Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn

DAMN I am a huge DK fan.  If you ever want to sell one of those G&W PLEEEEEAAASSE let me know.

Picked up some thingies for this month. I don't know anything about Zone of the Enders aside from it being from Hideo Kojima so I hope it's good

[BadChad]

Nice scoop Tik! One of these days I'm going to have to pull the trigger on getting myself a CIB Musha. I know it may bery well end up seeing the single most expensive game I ever buy, but what good is a Genesis/Mega Drive Shmup collection without that in it!
