It is a real sound investment. Will be worth soooo much in times to come. I am considering purchasing that one on ebay USA.
They look really cool :)

Click to expand...

I would have to disagree with that.
I am not doubting that it would be a good machine, but it would hardly be an investment. Think about it....

If the 20th Anniversary is now only worth approximately 1/10 of its original value...., why would a 30th Anniversary machine be a good investment??
Those are attrocious odds on an investment if you ask me, :black:

I'm not thinking clearly today, you are right I am stupid.

I'd still buy one though because it would be cool

I remember one being in a Batman movie. Alicia Silverstone was using it so that had to have been Batman & Robin with George Clooney. It got quite a bit of screen time.
