Really hope you get it! I'll be watching from a safe vantage point - with an iron-grip on my socks

I remember having this game years ago and chucking it on ebay within a week. I wouldnt even get it at a tenth of this price. Did you play it and actually think WOW i need this in my life?

It's one of those "lets agree to disagree" type of things i guess. Good luck!

I don't totally disagree with you. I was just making a joke about the female announcer on the title screen

I've made many questionable purchases...this might be another one.

Air Gallet is still a good game but there are way better shmups out there in that price range imo.
Anyway, good luck to you. I remember that french guy who wanted 1800€ and the thread ended about if was the proper hardware revision board or not. In hindsight this might have been a bargain I guess

Agreed. There are some really nice bits to it but it's average at best.
Not a keeper, imo.

Speaking of blowing your socks off, a couple of very good condition and very desirable cabs popped up:
Kyotaro, with the manual (!)

Mini Cute, with the manual (!) and a Saturn converted for JAMMA (?!)

Uhh, what's with the white specks in the Kyotaro? It's like all the metal parts have crystallized.
Anyway, the 26" Deluxe one is way nicer than the 29". It has the most elaborate rotate mech I've ever seen. Plus it's completely made out of metal, the 29" is mostly wooden. 26" Deluxe > 29" Standard.

Very strange, could just be corrosion from being stored somewhere without A/C, and the Japanese summer + winter did its work. I didn't even notice that when I skimmed the listing. Good catch!

Looks like a 19 though. The 14 has 2 marquee Windows.

That's...wow.
Missing blue baggie, foam sheet and bubble wrap were a deal breaker
