Even knowing the answer I’ll get back (or lack of any since it would be rare for this to be part of any collection), do any of you reading here at VGA own a collection of kiosks or know of anyone who does? It just seems like such an awesome thing to have. Sure, fill a long room with arcade cabinets pinball machines if you can but why not a clean and fully functioning kiosk for every console? Damn, that would be awesome. Anyway, just a random thought that came to mind while looking this over…

Nintendo 64 Kiosk - The TV isn’t included which is unfortunate since it looks like it has a dandy Nintendo 64 sticker on the front. Still a very impressive design.

Space Ace Laserdisc with Tele-Story Books - With this you could watch the game through every scene without the trial and error.

Metroid Prime Samus Aran Bobblehead - An interesting boxed bobblehead due to the success of the Metroid Prime series. Otherwise just a nice pick up for Metroid fans.

Gears of War 3 Thrashball Cole Limited Bronze Statue - I can expect this statue (which was limited to only 100) to be available on eBay off and on but I’m still a little amazed that there aren’t 100 hardcore Gears of War fans out there that simply must have one of these and will never sell it. Less than 100 people? Really?

Dr. Pepper Majora’s Mask Promo Promo Prize T-Shirt - This was a prize give-away through Dr. Pepper for Majora’s Mask. Nice condition too.

Xbox 360 Wired Scuf Gaming Controller - This pro-controller is getting a fair amount of attention.

StarFox Pin - We’ve listed this pin on VGA before (or another like it). Worth $10? Sure… it’s StarFox. :P

Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Keychain - The keychain actually measures 3 inches long. Very well done too.

Metroid Prime Sunglasses - Not much to say here but I’ve seen these priced in the hundreds before I think… and not sell of course.

Final Fantasy VII Sephiroth Cold Cast Statue - Another fine statue from Kotobukiya.

My favorite auction here is the Sega Collection (Thanks Jimmy). It`s filled with lotsa goodies including a brand new retro jacket and hat. Pretty decent price and I`ll probably give a shot at this later on. Worth the check:

It seems like when some items are going down in price, others items are going up in price. Take the Wind waker scroll for example. I remember hearing about people offering $3000 for this scroll back in the day! I’ve even see it sell for $2k+ on eBay. Now it seems like the scroll is fetching for less by the year. Now on auction is a Wind Waker scroll at $600. We’ll see if it ends for that amount.

The Year of Luigi 30th Anniversary Coin – Nintendo E3 2013 The Year of Luigi 30th Anniversary Coin – Nintendo E3 2013

Seller says: “A collector’s item for those who love Nintendo. This item will be delivered to you in the way it was given; inside a plastic wrap. This item was a special promotion to those who were able to play the Nintendo games that were available to demo at e3 2013. I was lucky enough to get one, so for any collector’s out there who really love the ‘little’ brother of the Super Mario Brothers, then this coin is definitely for you!

I personally have no use for it as I need to pay for tuition for college, and from what I hear it’s a demand-able item.”

Uncharted 2 – Fortune Hunter Edition Uncharted 2 – Fortune Hunter Edition

Hey guys, I just wanted to bring this item to some attention if you haven’t noticed it before or perhaps haven’t heard of this edition of Uncharted 2. This giant and amazing looking box set was never for sale. It was a prize given away to 30 winners that participated in an online promo campaign. I’m not sure if there were other give-aways outside of the 30 I’ve just mentioned but you can be sure the developers have others.

The story behind the 30 prize editions is pretty interesting. Back in mid October of 2009, Sony made an offer to give away 10 of these incredible collector’s items every day for three days. To be eligible for one you needed to play the online demo of Uncharted 2 on one of those days.

The Fortune Hunter Edition on eBay right now is being sold by a known reseller so the  cool story behind someone winning this is lost. It must have been pretty awesome for those 30 gamers who won though… Insanity.

E3 2013 Collectibles and Promos E3 2013 Collectibles and Promos

Well, E3 is just about over for this year and eBay is filling up with hundreds of promos and limited give-aways. This year had more going on than last year but still didn’t really have the impact previous expos have had. I must admit it pleases my long lost Playstation fanboy self watching Microsoft clench up and go on the defensive about their insane ideas about the future of gaming and their plans to force it to become exactly as they predict. Sorry Microsoft, we the gamers have the money you want… if you piss us off we will go elsewhere. ;)

I could rant all day but many of the auctions below end today and very soon. Act quick if you want to sneak your bid in! Good luck guys
