Haven't gotten it yet.
I hope it is based on the game(s) and not the movie. Either way though it should be pretty sweet!

True, true but also a lot of stuff nobody wants (Shinning force III without instructions, spine? ).

But he's got a great service and good prices.

Thanks again to Tynstar for holding a bunch of stuff for me in the US -- a bunch of it arrived today (see the picture + mint set of Wisdom Tree boxes and manuals)!    I also got a Rev.A variant of the Action 52 that I still needed, and a couple carrying cases as well as 19 dust sleeves.  The only downside was that I had to pay 2x customs fees which cost me around 26$ (could be due to the value or maybe the customs in Belgium started charging for every economy parcel from outside the EU). 

Anyway, here's a pic of most of the stuff:

man i never see that stuff  were they mostly bin  items   nice snags....

[Speedy_NES]

Thanks, some of those were just lucky wins.  I think only the Power Clip and the Yobo controllers were BINs -- the rest were auctions from what I remember.  The Speedboard even ended at 0,01$, never thought it would go for so little.  I guess they went under the radar of the other NES accessory collectors, because they all went for relatively low amounts.  I bet if any other NES accessory had seen them on eBay, they would've gone for at least 5-10x of what I paid.

5 or 10 cents would still be a deal Pieter

Congrats on those wins some of that stuff looks really cool.

That carrying case is sweet too.(Top left corner)
I found out today Dan has one. He got it at a gamestore that closed up shop for free.

After purchasing like 200$s in NES/SNES stuff...

I can't believe how often I get ripped off on the net (at least it feels that way).  Received a U-Force today:

As can be seen in the auction questions, I asked about the stains prior to bidding and was told that they were just fingerprint marks noticable due to the digicam flash.  Well, the item arrived and it's completely dirty and in used condition, the main unit and the parts (even an idiot would realize it's not new).  Hopefully I can get at least a partial refund, else the guy is going to get a big fat negative.  I don't get how people with so much feedback can make such false assumptions.

Ahh well, at least I got something nice in today:  boxed grey Honey Bee converter, last HB converter I still needed

True that

That's cool, anything free is nice   It's actually the only item that's not going into my collection though (aside from a couple dupes) as it's for the guy registered as TRAY on here (combined shipping ).  It's actually a pretty rare case I think, since I don't think I've seen others on eBay during my searches.  The difference is that this one holds 15 games instead of the common carrying case that holds 10 games (plus this one's pretty damn solid as you've probably noticed).

And Scott...we all know how you've converted to being a NES fanboy

Well, I got really lucky again...bought a Stadium Events without picture or detailed description and Mario Bros for a total of 50 euro shipped (~60-65$US).  Turns out they are both 100% mint in box as if never used!!!  Especially the Stadium Events is in pristine condition   I managed to pick up another used cib copy of the game and a brand new copy recently as well, so right now I have four CIB (two NIB) copies of the game!!  Makes it seem so much more common, but it's really not as common as some people seem to think (although definitely not as rare as the NTSC version). 

I also got a nice and new Super Mario Bros table cover in from the UK from the early 1990s

Very nice pick ups Pieter!
