You didn't know that movie before? 

Well, it was good you looked it up, it's awesome!
Basically all movies with Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao together are good. 

[fredJ]

  for calling me "always excellent". 
nice blog post. I may link it from my facebook to let customers know what they rejected.

Manuel - I had never seen any of Jackie Chan`s films before he came to the US in the 1990s before.  I am definitely interested in seeing more of his early stuff!

Fredj - Yes, show them what they missed out on!  Thanks again for that addition to my collection

I had no idea Kung Fu was rare in Japan. How much do they usually sell for?

[senseiman]

It depends.  The cheapest I have seen is about 5000 yen (60 dollars) for a loose copy in bad condition.  The most expensive is 63,000 (750$) for a nice CIB copy. 

That is just for the rare `Kung Fu` variation.  Spartan X is much cheaper, usually in the 500-1000 yen range.

Wow... I'll keep an eye open for one then!

Did you get most of those from Yamatoku?  I swear I saw 9/10 of those in his auctions lately!

[senseiman]

Nice haul there Waltergol, especially like that Arkanoid CIB with the controller!

[NintendoKing]

Heh, I agree Arkanoid with Vaus Controller is one of the best games out there! Ultra classic!

Nice find, fredj! Yep, that bubble bobble is indeed complete with both the game and huge manual inside.  

Here's one that's been sitting on ebay for awhile:

No, actually the game disk is missing??  You see it's not there. Yes, I didn't see it at first either. Kind of bummer then, I paid too much.
