I think the controllers would look much cooler with an orange D-pad and buttons, don't you?

I am actually making a label for a controller that Duo-R hacked for me and was thinking about customizing some more pads specifically for Bomberman. I'll post pics of the finished products soon. I still need to find some good quality labels to use.

I also have a nice promo mug. Years ago I asked Steve at TZD about it, and he told me it was a promotional mug, for people who worked there, or sent to businesses carrying their games.

I purchased it at a yard sale 10-15 years ago.

I've never seen another like it. The mug is black. One side reads, "Turbo Grafx 16", with the TG-16 logo. The other side of the mug reads, "Coming in August" and below that lists 4 games being released that month. The titles are in logo print. All I recall listed there is Bloody Wolf.

I havent' seen this mug in a while, i think maybe one side only says, "Bloody Wolf", and the other side has the lsit of titles being released soon. I don't think there is a TG-16 logo on the mug... I need to look at it again, my memory is fuzzy.

I have this mug boxed away, and have no pics. However, when I do some cleaning today, I may see if I can dig out the box I have this mug packed inside.

Oh, and I've never seen that Legendary Axe 2 mug before.

.


Speaking of mugs, I found a couple of them on Ebay.

Yeah, I was watching those mugs for days now. I ended up winning them both luckily. I am a big coffee drinker....now to decide whether or not I will ever use them :) Probably not...but....that WOULD be drinking in style :)

Interesting color choices... too bad they didn't use color that liberally on the TG16 itself. I think the controllers would look much cooler with an orange D-pad and buttons, don't you?

I've always preferred the PC engine controllers and the blue motif, but orange buttons would be cool on a TG16 controller.

I have a mug, the duffle-bag, and a few shirts. I just found my Lords of Thunder shirt a few days ago actually.

All of it I obtained from TTi directly at CES or when they sent it to me.

Oh by the way, I recently bought a TG16 hat off a guy from DigitPress for $10. He said he would ship it out after the holidays, so I'm awaiting for it any day now. I think he said it was neon (of course).

Hey K, have you received this yet? You gotta take a picture of you sportin' this fine hat. If I recall, it's one of those "soft" all-fabric painter's-style hats that were popular in the 80's.

Got the hat awhile ago and that is indeed the hat (early 90's MC style). Still need to take a pic of it with my Devil's Crush shirt on.
