It's not mine... I'd LOVE to get it but just don't have a spot for it right now... in that condition, that's a damned steal.  Please, someone save it from an idiot mamer.

Neat...  Too bad it (like everything else) is so far away.  :(

Pictures are taken in such a way that it just looks dirty and banged up...  With those colors and artwork, really needed to be better lit and coupled with some detailed shots of the line art.  Looks like someone's gonna get a pretty good deal.

It's less than an hour from me!  I'm gonna get it, slap a six player CP on it, cut off the top and put a D9200 - bare - in it's place.  And put in 10,000 Romzezzz!!!!!!1111

Seriously, if I had the cash, I'd get it in a hearbeat.

I was right... the guy who won it is a good friend of mine.  Fear not, folks... that game is going to a good home.  The guy is meticulous in caring for his collection.  I also suspect he lurks around here from time to time...

Wheee!

I collect the black and white games, I have 3 working ones, 1 complete non-working one, and 3 incomplete ones.

I had one of those in my living room for a few days (didn't work though), it was dropped off by one guy, then another guy picked it up a couple days later (they couldn't manage to get schedules just right to meet each other).

That game is not HUO though, it has lockbar holes on it.

MOST black and white games usually clean up to be minty fresh, unless they were stored in damp areas. That is because black and white games mostly went off route in 1980 when all the color games came out.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.
