Today felt like my birthday! Got these badboys in the mail. 2 very important pieces to my collection since they are the best condition Romeo and Penny I have ever held. Aside from the home-made upper gaskets, the frame is as close to perfect as I can see. An added bonus is the original "X Metal" Black Iridium! Those are also about a 9/10 with the usual very small hairline stress crack! I will be preserving those!

The Penny I received from SpliceD are literally brand new! I don't think they have ever been worn. Everything is so tight it feels like the nose and hinges are glued. Aside from the weird hazing in one of the lens, they are perfect. An added bonus to these is that the lenses are ice iridium polarized which are custom cut OEM!

X Metal/Exovista Ruby Romeo 1 - Thanks o-freak 85 for the wonderful deal we closed!

I'm a big nerd, and it is a Mini Tyrael statue for Diablo 3. I got it at Blizzcon 11 when I went last year and met up with SpliceD too :p

nice story! awesome...I gotta get into video games again. I was a huge street fighter, loved playing as Ken or Ryu. I thought E Honda was absolutely awful to play as...I loved marvel vs. capcom and playing as Wolverine. THose capcom vs. games are going for a big price tag on the bay....I don't know where mine went. I think my brother may have it...

Hah I have an original MvC2 on PS2 that was going for like 100 bucks before. I am an SF2 fan as well. I have like 90% of the SOTA figs made, these are just a handful of rares. Some of these net like $75-120 a piece due to rarity. The M Bison Kidrobot in the middle of the display goes for like $100 on ebay.
