I hope the Castlevania guy who doesn’t like his own art knows it’s front and center in the middle of the entire art exhibition cause it’s so rad. 

I mean... it depends on your perspective. it could also be in the very back!

Hey gang!

The last two years worth of work has culminated in this! I put on the first Art of Nintendo Power Museum Exhibit at a socal gaming convention called Megabit Gaming Expo last weekend! Here is an early video showing my display. More to come! So excited!
 

And here is the much larger video!

@Ricky Winterborn is that disc just a cut down DVD? lol

I hate and love this.

I responded in a message, but it isnt secret information or anything. The magazine had a mock award show called the Nintendo Power Awards every year. This is a trophy from the 2000 awards.

If you really want your collection in a museum, it would probably be easier/less expensive/less heartache to donate it to one of the existing brick and mortar museums like the Strong.

I have a non-profit museum that doesnt even HAVE a brick and mortar component, and it literally takes up every scrap of free time and money I have. lol

I have one also (just the adventurer's guide)  - after looking for several years I found one on ebay a few years back at a reasonable price,

Would you like an unreasonable amount of money for it?

Bump

I was actually on track to start touring the Nintendo Power Art Collection via pop-up exhibits this year...and then things happened. Pretty frustrated to be so close to my end goal only to be shut down by fucking nature.

Just finished listening to episode 152. Great show as always, dudes.

@Archon 1981 - was this the Star Wars Plug-N-Play that you worked on at Jakks-Pacific? Because I grew up with this thing and that would be amazing.

Yep! Also the one that looks like general grievous 

I blame the Collector's Quest Podcast. Fuck those guys.

It's Inktober 19th, and I'm settling in nicely to my new role as @Archon 1981's crony! This dude is RAD TO THE MAX!!! 

Eat your heart out @DefaultGen, there's a NEW sidekick-lacky in town!  

I dont know what the fuck this is. But its my new favorite thing.

This thread is really really really out of date. So I thought I'd toss some new stuff in!

No. I got into video games only since I received a HA catalog in the mail for video games.  I was like, here is market that will have a big push, jumped on ebay and bought about 80 games and have been making a killing. All those empire strikes back 2600 and intellivison, that was me. Buy for a 100. Grade and resell for 1500. I even bought graded games like again empire for 340 and in less than week, I flipped for 3k.  And and on and on.....and u claim u have 10 years in this market yet are kicking rocks on the sidelines. That is the difference between us. I got in and out of 2600 cause I think it will implode and have been buying up rare stuff. I will be out of the market by next year. 

OMG @DefaultGen We finally know who the Retro Gem Miner's muse is!

I have never been so happy with my decision to join a thread in my fucking life.

U feel bad for me? Don't, I think I judge markets wayyy better than u. Take a look at my side hustle. X 4 X 23 yrs on ebay...all side hustle so keep hating the guy without trousers, as your crony says..haha

You. Are. ADORABLE.

This thread is so good that im posting in it.

@acidjaguar the reason I want it is that the stepson of the artist has the original art, and wants to be able to frame them together.

Sell it to me. Thaaaaaanks!

Any foto(s) . . . ?

are you not seeing it in the post?

Hey peeps!

Are NWC finds still thread worthy? Well, if they are... may I introduce you to a copy you haven't seen before!

#0341!

Like my first copy, this was obtained from a former employee who staffed the event.

Not much more to the story I'm willing to share other than that
