Previously:



So you see, this is pretty damaged (:() and I'd like to keep something of it for me, as it looks like, all it's worth keeping is the red coloured Nintendo titled, or am I wrong?

I did have the two parts, but I honestly don't know where the "GAM" board of this.

Another question:



I have like 9 things of these (one of them is unboxed), is it worth anything? On Amazon UK apparently one new costs 25 pounds, but anyone can price it whatever they'd please.

Thanks! :)

I would sand off the "eboy" and repaint that paint to say "World of" in gold paint.

Why the sign come in two parts?  ???
I can't think of anything useful to make with the text "E BOY". :P Maybe someone creative would be interested in buying "BOY" and make something useful with it. A men's room sign such as. :-\

Maybe you could cut up the majority of the sign, rearrange the letters to be like 'OBEY Nintendo'. :help:

I did that, here it is:



But now I've found the two parts, though the condition is quite mediocre:

You could easily use some super strength epoxy or glue on the back to re-attach the two halves which is what I would do.  And if you're still not sure if that's strong enough then glue a support beam or plate connecting the two halves again from behind.

I still like this idea the best.

I'll do that and probably re-paint it, but it probably won't look as good as it was in its authentic condition (when it was brand new).

How did it come in half?


Funny story, I found this at my grandparents farm which had animal crap all over it, I did try to clean before removing it and then it got broken into two pieces.

Originally, I owned this in pristine condition but then I found this in such a horrible condition, oh god... :'(
