Atomiswave FOTNS is around 575 euro last time I checked.
Espgaluda 2 should be around 700 euro (not so sure about the poster though, with poster the game is very expensive somehow).

When you buy a kit in a PCB shop this is also what you get normally, or only with the yellow instruction sheet incl..You will never find a poster with your kit for example. So when is a kit complete? Box, panel sticker, marquee and carton marquee imo.

you know this is for collector's... :lol:

IMO a kit is complete when it has the same parts as new.....
the mushihime poster was not part of the kit (i think only the first 100 had it)
but every galuda 2 has a poster (about 2m x 75cm) so for me it is part of the kit....
espgaluda kit's are often missing the little two sided arcade flyer's

the ketsui kit on shmups is missing the instruction sheet and a little flyer

now I buy every kit new, but ketsui and mushihime where before i started collecting cave

This is crazy collector's stuff :lol:

because when i want "to play only" i buy a bare PCB...but some people pay a lot of money for some "printed paper"
:wink:

Yeah but I agree with you. Somehow a large part of the fun with CAVE is the extremely cool artwork. When you have those on the shelve it makes a collection shine. But when a game is so expensive I sometimes buy only the PCB with copied artwork to buy the full kit once prices dropped a bit. When will that Kesui price drop?!?!? bastards.
