Title: Neon TG-16 Gloves on eBay
Post by: Necromancer on July 20, 2012, 10:45:34 AM
Linky (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&hash=item4aba115bc1&item=320949279681&nma=true&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&rt=nc&si=dkVHHFFw0VwQd1vTI4RzrQ5tPsc%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc)

This is the only time I've seen 'em outside of the Turbob Gear promos.  I missed 'em (even at $33 shipped I probably would've pulled the trigger), but did someone here snag one or both pairs?

All of us would.

Except for Joe Redifer and tatsujin.

They would remove the gloves before showering.

So they do exist. Back of the package says they were made in Korea, by Champion. UPC 009306084165

What else was in that catalog?

Its all the old customs/imbargo warehouses and whatnot finally being purged/opened after all these years.  They're finding everything from old movie prints to sealed 2600 games!

Reminds me of the pallet of brand new Virtual Boys they found in the middle east several years ago.

It's like a gamers version of archeology!   :)

Reminds me when Blockbuster decided to sell all their 3do and Virtual Boy stuff. I wish I would have picked those up when the systems were like $30 a piece..

I couldn't sleep last night got up, started looking around at sites and saw the hot-hot-hot pink ones, so I got the 2nd pair.  He must have found one more after that cause I see the total sold went to 3-3.  I'm optimistic he is gonna find more.

I will only visit a future MGC/Turbo Fest if there are enough gloves for us all to wear them at the event.

Thread necroing.  Yellow gloves up (not mine)

The price is laughable though.

YEAH this guy is a rip off artist. He has some cool TG stuff, but he is way to highly priced.  WHen I asked him if he had the orginal power supply for a docking station base, he gave me a link to the CD unit power supply and said see you can get it for $10, why are you bothering me?

And it's not just TG stuff either, He tries to take you in on anything that's hot or sought after.

I love how the TOTALLY UNWORTHY Batman gloves are next to the glorious TG-16 gloves (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)(http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)(http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)

haha, esteban....  I put them in there ONLY cause there was a Batman game released on PCE.... so not totally unworthy.  The unworthy ones didn't make the pic.  :)

Necro, I have my sources.   :twisted:

Ha! So, there is a logic to your madness! (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)

In that case, I grudgingly admit that the gloves have earned their place alongside the TG-16 beauties.

Since you have a surplus of these gloves (apparently, you shred them up and use them as mulch), feel free to lend me a pair. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)
