What did you get this week?

Lets devote this thread to what you picked up this week.

This week I picked up another Romtec Colorvision. Was lucky, the guy listed as Buy now for $15. I don't think he knew what it was, poorly listed also. That was my lucky birthday find first thing in the morning. Though it was missing the battery cover. I wonder what happens to these battery covers, do people eat them.

On another note , I missed out on a bundle of 3 games which included 2 Bandai tabletops and a Epoch Fights of the Titan. The lot went for $10.
It was one of those ones where I saw the auction with only 2 hours to go and couldn't do anything about it as my proxy needs 24 hours notice. Very frustrating to watch it go for $10 to 1 bidder.

What country do you find these in dollars?

I got a Space Guardian Gundam (cheap loose one) and a very nice boxed U-Boat this week.

The Colorvision was in my country - Australia (Same state also).

The other stuff I missed out on was OS - I just converted the cost to AUD

- Epoch Galaxy II
- BMX Flyer
- Sugar Ray Leonard's talking Boxing

Got a Mattel World Championship Football today.
Thought Mattel Star Hawk was their only VFD game, but this is a weird one, with 2 panels.

Star Hawk, WC Football and WC Baseball are their only VFD games...

Technically, Mind Boggler is as well, although it's just a numeric display.

The one I got was a BIN for $40. It's a neat game, one of the two handhelds I wanted the most. Still waiting on the other, Western Bar!

Got Bambino Safari yesterday in the mail. Thing is huge.

A mighty blue Zaxxon FL. Very blue, and very near mint. It is with box, in very nice condition, but without polys. Can't get it how someone can keep the box so nice, without inner support. So I have two now, and I keep it as trade. So maybe interesting for someone with a tatty box and a totally grey version.

Today I got the Ludotronic Caries en Danger and a Mattel World Championship Baseball. The first is pretty hard, as the ghosts can move diagonal (you can't!), and the second is good looking, but what's weird, it has a brown painted grandstand! Not even moulded in the colour.

This week I got Casio Western Bar for $20 shipped. It's in fair condition, too! I really enjoy it.

Stay tuned for next week when I show you all a REAL steal I got. Cool
