You should catch a flight to the uk every weekend to hit up the carboots :D

Paid 46,75 euro for the bundle inc. shipping, could have done worse i suppose. + a nice bonus as comix zone came with the audio cd.

Are there any carboots around Octobertime?

Hydr0x, you should do it. Get a proper weekend planned -

1) go carbooting with Arma_dillo
2) Replay (or whatever it'll be called)
3) give your games a kiss round at Cauterize's

:D

You didn't mention that you had the chance to buy a Dragon's Lair?!!

That game ticks all the gbc collector boxes - rare, technical marvel - nice find!

Also, have a go at that Bruce Lee and lemme know what you think. I think it's great! Also, the Blaster Master's a decent find due to the Sunsoft heritage thing. I own it but have to admit haven't played it yet. Gets good reviews though.

Regarding the Killer Switch and Road Rashes......you and Arma_dillo should talk! :D

To be honest, you and chocklo inspired me to look into Game Boy after seeing the rarities you guys kept pulling in. :lol:
I only keep what I like though! Bruce Lee it in pretty bad condition, but a fun game. Dragon's Lair is MINT but I really don't understand what I have to do in the game, I kept dying at the first challenge! I think I'll sell that.

I really love both Elevator Action games, they're great! Used to play it on the MSX.

regarding Dragon's Lair....

I suspect that Hydr0x has pm'd you already. But if he doesn't bag it off you...

As much as I'd love to help you both out, I have no idea what it's worth or how rare it is so I'm probably going to put it on eBay, also fairer to the both of you as you could both bid on it.
