New Get City, post here when you get something new

TechnoFreek

Started lurking around Yahoo auctions and bid on these few items over the last few months, used the proxy service Shopping Mall Japan.
Needless to say these are all arcade and mostly Atomiswave related.
On a side note, Japanese arcade artwork is a thing of wonder.

First up, is an A4 size Demolish Fist poster, virtually mint except for as small crease near the bottom.





Next up is a complete art set for Neo Geo Battle Coliseum. Very hard to get Atomiswave art sets with the Instruction strip. This set has seen plenty of action.



Next up is some cards that would have been used by the reader found on the 1p panel. Always wanted a few of these for the sake of completeness. One has a couple of small scratches on the back but otherwise all three are mint. Very surprised.





And lastly a game I played a lot of plus I really like the art.

They look great dude, love the cards. Any chance you could keep an eye out for a Raiden Fighters Jet arcade flyer? It's the only one I'm missing. Could paypal you over funds etc if you saw one in half decent nick. Have the rest of them framed above the cab and it's about time I filled in the blank.

Sure. Not really planning another order soon due to the cost of the service and double shooing etc but having said that I am on there regularly keeping an eye! Is it the large size poster you're after?

Yeah even to keep an eye out would be great cheers. No it's the small flyer - they're approx A4 in size. This chap:



Got some nice frames from Ikea years ago for them and have one left over waiting.

Ah cheers for having a look. Yeah not Jet unfortunately. And actually, looking at the ones I have they're all Fabtek (the US publisher I think) but I wouldn't care if Jet was Japanese. Think I used to have a saved search on ebay but gave up looking after a while.

They are nice alright, originals?

That blank spot would keep me awake at night #OCD

OCD OCD OCD!!!!

Ahh, I'm ok now

Andrew76

Lol impressive Steve!

Yes, I'm OCD like that too which is why I deliberately hung them up with a gap - as a constant reminder there's one missing. They're in the sittingroom above the cab too so not like I can forget. :pac:

While we're on the topic of OCD therapy, the Wii motion sensor bar fits perfectly on the frame of a Widescreen Trinitron and matches the colour:







Okay...maybe the dust on mine is an OCD nightmare!

eddhorse

I do like these OCD things haha

Andrew76

If that sensor bar is not stuck to the tv in some way it's a disaster waiting to happen! A slight breeze would knock it out of allignment, you'd end up having to fix it all the time. :pac:

Theres a centre surround speaker keeping weight on the wire so its grand!

Even before the speaker was there, it never fell off though.

And theres a door right next to the TV so there would be a draught.

I always blow them off with the ferocity of my wii sport bowling swings.

Any chance I can plan a trip to Vegas with all of you rain men? :pac:

The Last Bandit

Is that the trailer for the Tetris movie ?

CosmicSmash

It's an old one, I didn't even know they were making one about Tetris. It seems they're talking about a trilogy.

Finally got myself something to play Vinyl on
Been getting the odd record here and there(limited edition, free with retro books etc) and ordered the new Star Wars: The Force Awakens Hologram Vinyl on tuesday. So said thats that, its stupid to be getting these with nothing to play them on.

It's not super high quality or going to blow anyones socks off, but it looks clean and works well(and can capture vinyl to MP3 via USB if required). The built in speakers are half decent, but you can hook it up to a good sound system as well. All in all, a good starter turntable.




Now I just need to find a spot for it, cant stay inbetween the toaster and kettle me thinks

Thargor

Quality design! Damn I want one now, been keeping an eye out for classic Sonys but hipsters have driven the prices up, might just grab one of those and add it to my current system.

I got a hori hrap-ex a while back and even got art for it but I forgot to post it.
