Post here everytime you get something new!

no doubt they'll do what Target did here, and what most places will likely do now, announce 'liquidation', 10-20% of first month, 15-30% second month, 20-40% third month, 30-50% fourth month...then blow out whatever else is left ...

I always wanted one of the newer Amigas, but the price and lack of apps and slow speed of the systems keeps me away from them. Looks nice.

Oh and I got a copy of They Live on laser disc the other day.

Happened to stop by the local game shop (Sentry Box), huge place and they have a second hand games corner, found a few items I've actually wanted to get for some time...

RPG/Gamebooks
Paranoia RPG (WEG, 1984)
Car Wars Dueltrack deluxe supplement (SJG, 1986) ('unused', none of the tracks/cars/wreckage sheets have been cut up)

Car Wars Adventure Gamebook #1 - Battle Road (TSR, 1986) (I did have this one back in 86/87, and wanted to get it again, Fuel's Gold was a definite bonus)
Car Wars Adventure Gamebook #2 - Fuel's Gold (TSR, 1986)

also kind of regret giving up my TolkienQuest/MiddleEarthQuest books, too, though I have re-acquired a couple, would love to get them all (particularly Night of the Nazgul, which was one I did have)

Nice work both. I had no idea about the Dizzy game being made.. I assume that's an NES cart?

I got my Gotek the other day, no need for pic though, everyone's seen them! And I wouldn't want to show off the job I did of mounting it! I have got a nicer mount coming though at some point.

Cheers, yeah there's been a few Kickstarters now. I'm trying to get Wonderland Dizzy too but eBay sellers' taking the mick as usual. I missed the KS's
 
Pretty cool. I'm a backer on the Joejam and Earl remake kickstarter. That should be ready soon, I'm pretty excited about that, if not just for the music!
