Found a Sony Wega HD trinitron 32'' for $250. This thing is beyond amazing and makes all my games look superb.

One is a Jet Set Radio Future figure, and the other is from Crazy Taxi. Both of them are in the boxes, although they are in rough shape, and are labeled as being 1 in 500 prototype figures. They were too unique for me to pass up! I'll post some pics this weekend.

Here's the JSRF figure on eBay (not mine, just a reference!)

Hmm... according to this blog post from our very own Barry the Nomad, the JSRF figure is worth between $250 to $400! Dinged up box or not, seems like I found some rare stuff!
Whoa! Crazy find, man. I clicked that link and the first thing I noticed was the asking price. That's just great!

A beautiful 4:3 HD CRT! This feature combination is not very common. What is the model number of yours? My Sony is also a 4:3 HD CRT model number KV-32HS500. Reviewed at my CRT vs LCD signature link

Scored Bioshock 2 collectors edition £7. It was supposed to be pre-owned but it turned up today completely sealed and brand new. Awesome!

Illusion of Gaia SNES - boxed with inlay tray, no manual or dust cover
Super R-Type SNES - cart
Gradius III SNES - cart
Alien Syndrome NES - cart/sleeve/manual
World Class Track Meet NES - cart
To The Earth NES - cart
Bases Loaded NES - cart

$32 all said and done. However, I found a $100 bill on the ground yesterday so technically I got all this and $68 for free? I'm happy with that :) :) :)

Genesis (SCART)
Saturn-svideo
Dreamcast (VGA)
PS3

GameCube (I really need to get component cables)

All hooked up through DVDO EDge. Looks real nice. All I need now is a 480i sony trinitorn for some light gunning.

You can lightgun with your Dreamcast hooked up to a CRT VGA computer monitor.

I found a Specifications and an Owners Manual for you.

Wait a minute its a Widescreen. Oh well still a nice HD CRT. The widescreen does have an advantage when using the 720p/1080i mode. Its newer then mine which has the older DVI hookup. I had to get a conversion cable to go HDMI. Try PS2 with a Component cable and run Gran Turismo 4 or Tourist Trophy at 1080i. Also God of War 2 has a unique hidden HD mode. At my CRT signature link. Prepare to be shocked. :mrgreen:
