Funny you should show off your Titanus, Hursticon. I just watched a review of the Zord from CollectionDX on youtube. Didnt know about the repolables..maybe I should get that instead of trying to hunt down the Japanese version.

Hehe, I would say for the sake of saving what is likely to be a significant amount of money; Go with Reprolabels man, IMO, the western release of Titanus is considerably expensive enough so I would imagine that the Japanese version would be pretty damn exorbitant in cost.

A game I have been hunting down for a while, but haven't found at an appropriate price, finally showed its face at an, er, appropriate price.


Knuckles Chaotix for the 32X! The Japanese version, now I still want the english box, but less so...

Been eyeing this game off for a number of years. Not as bad as my search for Saturn Castlevania (~6 years active searching), but a pretty invloved effort nontheless!

Castlevania's not that hard to find is it? I remember seeing one in Super Potato Akihabara for about 4000Y and thinking "aren't you supposed to be more expensive?"

Oh wow man! - Nice find there Tetsuwan , the last time I remember seeing that game was in a magazine in the mid 90s; truly a Gem you've got there dude you'll have to let us know how it plays/handles.

Think I put them in the wrong section... Ooops

Aaaah, Kurdt, in the days before the ease of interwebs shopping and the like, Castlevania was irritatingly hard to find. Ended up forking out well over $100 aus for this guy coz I never thought I would see it again. That was hmm, akihabara, circa 2002.

Thanks Hursti, I have played Chaotix on emulator and well, it is lacking in much. Bland WTF level design (when you reach the end it just kind of fades) and an almost complete lack of enemies makes it an odd experience. The Chaos Emerald levels are interesting to look at though, as they try and promote the polygon pushing power of the 32X.

Intersting in that it is only Sonic Game that hasn't been added into a compilation set. And that include games like Sonic The Fighters (Oh, there was another arcade game that hasn't either, probably due to the ball control method).

I am just glad gaming history piece added

OK, Back to toys, well I guess the game is a toy.

I finally got a set of Jay & Silent Bob figures, have wanted these for years, and the set for $60 was a great deal

Thanks to damn you Hussies I have the first wave of 4'' Bandai Thundercats.
They are neat toys, with a lot of fun little things thrown in. And now the hunt is on on Ebay to track down the 4'' action feature Grune and Mumm-Ra, The Thundertank and The first few 6'' inch figures.
