Finds 1927: The Technodrome is here! Cowabunga!

The Technodrome is finally here. I pre-ordered this one months ago through Amazon and it's finally here! Took long enough but I guess they were having issues with the stock? I have seen that a lot of people are finally getting theirs as well. Just love to finally have a replica of this for the box art, I never had the original in a  box but I do have an original by itself so it's really cool. I know it has gotten a lot of hate because it's not the same size as the original and the turtles don't fit which is a real bummer. I'm not sure why that decision was made, but maybe it's so that people don't try to sell it off as the original? Who knows!

Finds 1924: Gamestop Buy 2 Get 1 Free Deals

Here are some games that were waiting for me when I got back from my trip. These are from Gamestop and were purchased during their Buy 2 Get 1 Free on PS4 and Xbox One titles. I was able to find some real nice gems and use my credit towards the purchase so ended up saving a lot of money! Gotta make it count! I ended up getting a little bit of everything including Killer Instinct in Spanish, Dead or Alive 5 and 6, How to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?, Shadows of Loathing among others. They did delivered mostly original boxes except one which is actually a really good ratio The one that came with generic case was the most expensive one unfortunately. Keep getting loot!

Finds 1923: Playstation 3 & 4 Consoles

Finds 1922: Peru Trip 2024 Spoils! Club Nintendo, Caballeros Del Zodiaco, TMNT, Famiclone Boxed Consoles, and More!

Another trip to the motherland leaves me with some really awesome additions which are better than prior years to be honest. This was such an amazing successful trip with a little bit of everything. I did a lot of walking and explored areas I've never seen before which leaves me wondering what else is there in store outside the capital? I will have to plan a more in depth trip to other areas of the country and see what comes out of them. Anyways, I finally ended up getting my Club Nintendo magazines which range from numbers 1-30 and then some are missing which I'll be sure to add them eventually. I need to create a list of the magazines I need. Either way, I'm so happy to have Club Nintendo #1! As you can see, this is the trip of Famiclone boxed consoles as I was able to finally pick up three of them which come with their respective consoles. I mainly got them for the boxes are they have become very hard to find. I did picked up two other clones with no boxes but totally worth getting to the collection. In La Feria del Juguete, I was able to get tons of really cool goodies including the Saint Seya PS4 game, and the bootleg TMNT action figures. Lets take a closer look with the rest of the photos! 

In this picture you can see an album of TMNT with the entire set of stickers that belong to it. They are actually a replica which I don't mind because finding the albums themselves have become extremely hard. You can see some of the lot of Famicom bootlegs which contain some goodies and variants I wanted. You can also see an Action Set Famiclone box and Club Nintendo #1! 

Here is another Famiclone boxed console called Creation with two more clone consoles. One of them is a Micro Genius which is a variant I was looking for forever! I also picked up extra controllers because apparently there are bootleg controllers of the bootleg controllers! Can you believe that? I test a few out and they play amazingly! 

I took a better shot of the bootleg TMNT action figures. I can't believe they are sealed so I picked them both up. Unfortunately, they don't come with weapons, but there are some that do so I will have to hunt down those variants. 

Famiclone games are just lovely to have. The highlights are Super Bros 8, Battletoads, Raf World, and Gijoe! Just so much fun to have! 

This shot shows an adapter which I got outside the festival for practically nothing! I also got a pal Spain exclusive Soccer game for the NES (Sorry Emilio), the 31 in 1 came inside one of the Famiclones, and the Saint Seya games for PS3 and PS4. They are all the Latin American releases which you can't find here in the States. The Famiclone is quite peculiar as it looks like a lady Robocop. The Mario Kart 8 is case only which I needed! 

I will come back sooner than later as I have more Club Nintendo magazines to bring home! Yes, probably around 100 issues! I really loved this trip and happy with the stuff I got, but most of all, I was able to visit family and relax for once. I feel refreshed to continue my busy life here in the States. Keep on hunting!
