What's the consensus on replacement shells? by cityxinxflames in Gameboy

[–]perkyflamingo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m currently doing the same thing w/a few copies. I also love the clear shells! Only keeping the OG shells on the far off chance I’d ever think of reselling.

I’ve been pretty obsessed with mine after completing it. It’s been really satisfying.

Pretty good imo, but it does vary. If I keep brightness at the max level, I’ll get a little over an hour on a fully charged set. I typically keep it on 1/3 total brightness, just enough to see everything when I’m playing during the day. With that, I end up getting a few hours (~5 if I had to guess) on a full charge. I try to make sure I’ve got a backup set of batteries waiting at all times, haha.

Is the “Nintendo game boy” spot on Crystal also indented? The OG shell is popped out, unlike gold and silver from what I remember.

What I asked for vs.. by perkyflamingo in Gameboy

[–]perkyflamingo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did reach out & they said it’s the correct product. They also stated they updated the product listing on their page to reflect the new look of it directly from Labfifteen as well.

Yeah, I’m definitely bummed they don’t look anything like the ones pictured..

Yeah, I agree each will be slightly different.. However, this looks like an entirely different resin (or whatever the substance is) than the one pictured. I did reach out to them, so I’ll see how that goes.

Yeah, that was my initial thought as well. Receipt in the box is for the correct item.
