Games and Merchandise - 22nd February 2011

The latest photo of my collection of Gradius related merchandise, funny how it seems so much more when it's all laid out on my Super King size bed (6 foot by 6 foot 6inchs).

Items not shown in the photo are the Six Vic Viper model kits, two MMS figures for Otomedius (Erul Tron & Aoba Anoa), the four PlayStation Portable Collections.

Arcade - 22nd February 2011

Here's a photo of the Arcade related items, all of these are originals, I've chosen not to show any colour copies here.

I decided not to show the arcade boards as I couldn't be bothered to unpack them and to be honest they are just printed circuit boards (PCB's) anyway.
