Jaysus Pyong, I didn't even know Urotsukidoji Perfect Collection even HAD a LD release! Looks amazing.

Yep. It got a DVD and VHS release too on the same Anime 18 label, BUT those are amazingly censored versions too.

Hence the Laserdisc Box Set is still the actual jewel in the crown. You just can't find the series presented this way anywhere else. Unless it's a bootleg of course.

Aye, I've never seen the whole thing uncut and in the way it was intended to be screened across the 5 chapters. Looking forward to it and hoping the story makes more sense!

You're in for a treat. It's a great anime which unfortunately gets labeled as 'crap hentai' way too much. The Perfect Collection was released on DVD a while back but it's nowhere near as nicely presented as that Laserdisc. You seriously have me wanting to start a collection.

Where'd you get that mini Astro cab? I've always wanted some of those mini cabs.

Got a nice little bundle of stuff, the condition is a bit varying but mostly good...! Also came with a yellowed SNES and less yellowed NES which I'll probably shift onwards. Was just happy to get LoZ and Castlevania.

OwaynOTT

Castlevania nice! Missed out on that myself recently was major raging like.

Optimus Prime

That Batman game is a bit more expensive than your regular run of the mill NES games too.

I have that one, unboxed though, it looks and plays great.
Along with Parodius and Gradius 2 II it's one one of those games that looks too good to be on the Nes/Famicom.

I have that Batman game fully boxed. Came as a part of a boxed NES lot I picked up back in a secondhand shop years and years ago.

Man, I miss though second hand shop finds. They were good days.

Some people just have some special mutant powers when it comes to charity/second hand shops and great retrogaming finds.
I was going to comment about what I usually find but last time I did that I got abuse from some charity shop defender who objected to my use of the words "smell", "of" and "pee", despite the obvious jocular intent, so I won't use them again.....

The missus just told me theres a shiny envelope at home for me!
nice

Excellent work Pyong, it looks great outside and in. Very good read too. Won't post pics of the inside to keep it spoiler free.

Unreal. I ordered a step down transformer and US plug from maplin. The transformer arrived today via courier In an adadequately spacious box. The plug has been posted via regular royal mail. Grrrr

Retr0gamer

I ordered a vita from gamestop.ie and thought it would be easy enough to sneak past Sauron. It arrived in a box you could fight a small car in. Not a pleasant day

I havent done too badly on charity shop runs . Mind you there are 3 within walking distance of
my house. ( 4 if you count the clothes only one).they mainly smell of fabreeze these days , not wee;)

CiDeRmAn

The only things I've ever smelt in one, aside from pleasant things, were must and possibly camphor. And if you're capable of understanding the latter you're as old as I am!

Atavan-Halen

Just two purchases today!

bad idea going into CeX, almost impossible to leave empty handed.

Found a safe spot for my pink bullets!

My copy of Sin and Punishment for the Wii arrived this morning, thanks to Parcel Motel.

Pyong,
Any chance you have a few spare copies left for sale?

Spyhunter 2 for the ps2 incoming, only €1.25 from an irish seller on eBay.
I really enjoyed the first ps2 game and I have the regrettable third one, featuring the most electrifying man in sports entertainment! So that'll be the set.
But, seriously, the first two aren't pants!

Also, thanks to Atavan for Skyrim, to be played sometime in 2017, and Ridge Racer Unbounded, which I had a blast at this morning and, man, it's hard! But good!

Guy selling me the ps2 game via eBay is in Cork, tried to slip in the international postage onto the invoice. Sent a message asking for this to be corrected, not my fault he'll lose a few euro on this one, no need to boost the profits with 5.50 in postage!
