You might want to apply a tint film on your tube. John Linneman did the same on one of his CRT’s, and the results were great. ![FqTHamtaIAIInMV](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/retrogameboards/original/3X/7/6/761d24082dd6ff219d703d15a0da1b790924428b.jpeg) Here’s the X post he made about it.

You read my mind actually, shortly after receiving the monitor I went right down the rabbit hole. I’ve ordered some VLT35 and VLT50 film so I can do some test strips. Looks like a finicky but otherwise straightforward process so I’ll be sure to post my results here. ---

New PCB day is best day. And boy am I glad to get this one for much less than what it goes for these days on PCB shops at Japan or Forums. Think I’m good with these two (1 and 2), don’t think I’ll ever get TGM3 as I don’t think my setup is ideal for Taito Type X hardware. ![IMG_0821](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/retrogameboards/original/3X/8/5/8570fc67a514d91d78cd0ed3ae05faa3fec2ba7a.jpeg) ![IMG_0796](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/retrogameboards/original/3X/c/a/ca0b0362a06b4838aaef7fb3e39702a892e07b96.jpeg) ---

Time is almost up, but I thought I’d quickly note that if you order before 6PM today (Japan Time) with Suruga-ya you’ll get free shipping. This is a fairly significant savings. I just ordered some PC Engine stuff. They only do this like once or twice a year I think? > **[Game・Used book・DVD・CD・Trading card・Figure Mail order shop SURUGAYA |...](https://www.suruga-ya.com/en)** > > Suruga shop of games · used book · dvd · cd · traca · figure figures mail order shop, rich product line!

They’ve been doing it nearly every weekend for a few months now, with the occasional skip. While free shipping is cool, they bumped up the prices of everything to compensate, so if you’re the type to order more than a few items at a time, you’re probably worse off than before they started the campaign. The bumped prices don’t adjust down during the week when free shipping isn’t active, so definitely worth waiting it out unless you’re concerned that the item you want will sell out. Still some good prices to be had compared to buying locally, but not the treasure trove of discount it was before. ---

That’s interesting. I hadn’t seen one of these sales before. I also thought the prices were still less than I can get through ebay, which is the only other option I’ve used in the last four or five years. When I do find PC Engine stuff in the States (or TG-16) locally, it’s always at least ebay or more. There are zero deals nearby unfortunately. Just a few examples of what I purchased that definitely seemed like deals… Gunhed - $39 > **[(without box&manual) GUNHED](https://www.suruga-ya.com/en/product/261000022)** Ebay prices start at $62 with no box or manual. I got Super Star Soldier no box or manual for $29 Ebay prices start around $36 Alien Crush with no box or manual $18 Starts around $34 on ebay. Obviously the SSS wasn’t a big savings, but the others were pretty good. I’ll be sure to look more closely when I order in the future though. I’ve ordered from them twice now. Also, I just went back to my last order with them and looked at their current price for stuff I bought on that order (in 2022) and yeah, it’s higher, but I also checked ebay on some of those and they’re still good deals, just not as good as before, but with free shipping they’re definitely the better option. One last edit… that 2022 order was 6587 Yen to ship it. $45 in today’s $$. Not cheap. ---

No new PCB today ;( But I did get this beast of a cabinet, glad to add another Astro City to the collection. Would gladly trade that Aero for another Astro, as much as I love the Aero, maintenance is just more trouble than it’s worth, plus it weighs a ton. ![IMG_0949](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/retrogameboards/original/3X/b/4/b4132629932baf26648d83ac41bd9c916348b276.jpeg) ---

I’ve got a standard coming. Owned both those games at one point on Saturn/GameCube but sold long ago due to their high value. Yeah Switch is slowly becoming the shooter goat. A few more Cave releases and it will get there. ---
