Tron-like joystick, but with 2 thumb buttons.  I'm not sure what game this came out of, but its in good shape.

Let me know if you have any questions.

My guess is Xenophobe

I know you dont have it listed as a 'buy it now', but do you have a price in mind for outright sale? I am definitely interested and will be watching the auction if I dont hear back

Sorry brad -- whatever it goes for...  If you're lucky it will be $30.  

And yeah, now that you mention the name, I'm pretty sure this came out of a Xenophobe.

Happy bidding!

Thats fine by me.. I was looking for this exact stick to go on my "console" panel. 2 thumb buttons like that would be perfect for SNES with it's 2 shoulder buttons

Ill keep an eye on it, but I did get a new toy after Id written that. Picked up a fully complete driving panel- wheel, gears & optics for ~$20 total, so that may keep me busy :)
