Just bought a limited edition Boktai GBA sp im mint condition with the coffin case and an EZflash IV!
Super excited for that sucker to show up in the mail.
Does anyone know where to get ahold of the pelican GBASP leather glove? I imagine it is wicked hard to find...this one

Oh no. Lol. If you remember my GBA picture above I posted up that I was going to perform on was a front lit.
It would be super hard to do since the back lit uses a ribbon cable while the front lit you can tap the wire from the dimmer chip to the front light. So it would super confusing since you have no clue where the front light circuit traces is at.

picked up a gameboy pocket printer (Japanese version) the other day and cut down some thermal paper to use with it, goes well with the pocket camera I have.
I have a translucent purple shell w/ glass lens and ags-101 screen + necessary cable to put some life back into an old scratched up white GBA in the mail headed to me.
also would anyone happen to know of a good source to buy gameboy micro faceplates? I leant mine to a friend and it came back a bit scratched up :s

http://rosecoloredgaming.wordpress.com used to sell a faceplate that was more like a sticker but worked okay. They have a Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/RoseColoredGaming
Apparently they are out at the moment, but will announce when they make more. Looks like a lot of people are waiting.
You know, you'd think with the rise of 3D printing and how many people have Maker bots, faceplates would be easier to get. Maybe I need to take a shot over to Home Depot and test out the one they're selling (You can do a demo project free).
EDIT: A Quick Google search shows someone has used a makerbot to make a GB Micro faceplate. They even uploaded the plans for it (Called a "Thing", I guess).

Hmm not too keen on a somewhat non removable solution but will keep posted on that, thanks for the info. Might just just keep searching occasionally for a cheap micro/faceplates.

Received the last parts for the mod yesterday and completed it last
.
Everything worked out apart from a couple things, 1) The 'Glass' lens that was packaged with the shell turned out to be a scratched plastic one, and 2) the corners of the screen look as if they're fading/bleeding to a white colour.
The shell that included lens was cheap so I don't mind that it was plastic, I managed to order a glass lens from an Australian seller for about $7 which is good.
As for the strange issue with the display I plan to play with the adjustment pot on the back of the GBA. Has anyone had this problem before?
I guess if nothing comes about it I'll just contact the seller.

Gameboy DMG complete in box. Used, but in excellent condition and everything is in the original plastic. Just arrived in the mail today :-)
How much did you pay for it? I think mine was $56.00 at the time when they were no where to be found.
I was going to, ended up not getting it because it said it was $26 shipping on checkout, even though the store page said it had free shipping.
A counterfeit backlit GBA!
It also came with an EZ-Flash IV cart, which was nice! I had to do a lot of searching for a miniSD card, and unfortunately I was unable to find one, but it seems to work fine with a miniSD adapter for a 2GB microSD!
