Yes, those are our best deals yet.
PRO and V.S.
PRO is lighter and has an angled wrist area. V.S. obviously heavier with a bigger footprint (and the aforementioned ability to connect two together). V.S. has a bit more built in artwork customization options if you want to take it that route.
They both use Sanwa parts, so you should be good to go.

I've been looking to get a proper Korean stick for Tekken for a while, but have been worried about mounting it properly to an HRAP. I was wondering if the absence of the rubber on the Crown takes away from the natural Fanta feel or if it mimics it well enough.
I believe the Crown doesn't need the larger hole for the joystick also, which makes me think it isn't a good substitute.
The easier mounting, however, makes it appealing.

Pulled the trigger on SF x Sanrio. Only cuz I missed a sweet ass deal for the red FS Pro on ebay. 
Damn whoever outbid me when I was busy on the damn train with 3g!! It went off for $92 for the PS3 version.

Arthur won't let you down. Provided your stick is one he has templates for, I can't recommend him enough.
Oh, I know. It's just that right now I only have a stock art and I need someone to fancy it up before I have him print it.
Thanks for the info, I went for the V.S. My first fightstick since the Dreamcast! I'm excited.

I've pink ball top and buttons ready for the SF x Sanrio stick. Mmmhmm.
I think Hori has an official one for the VLX? If not get a duffle bag
That is beautiful. Is there a good GAF thread for cabinets (official and DIY)?
Where'd you get it?

maybe this is too late but if you can find a sixaxis instead of a dual shock 3 you might have an easier time, there were at least two guys on srk that sold adapters so you wouldn't have to solder on the controller pcb. i picked one up years ago, and got another when making a wireless stick for a friend.

I am currently working on DIY cases and full fightsticks. Hopefully I will have so really cool fully made boxes soon.
Oh? Are those products you want to sell? What are they made of? I'm hoping for metal judging by your username. I hate wood and plexi, and would be VERY interested in a metal/abs DIY box.

Hey, can anyone tell me if this is rare? How much should I be asking for it?

I don't know about the VF5 one but I sold the Soulcalibur IV branded EX2 for $60 on Amazon Marketplace not too long ago. Didn't come with stickers or anything, though I still had the box.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm going to be posting it here and a few other places soon, and I want the price to be appropriate (if there is an element of rarity) but reasonable enough that someone will actually buy it.

@ Kadey, that stick is super clean, love it.
Couple of new additions.

Some nice looking recent sticks showing up. Flocks stick is super clean, I love it. It's just a shame (kinda the same deal with Kadey's stick) that the control panel (with the guide button and headphone jack) breaks up the clean front face of the stick.
Also Kadey and devestatorprime both did a really good job of sticks with artwork on them. Usually I'm not a big fan of art sticks, but when you match up all the excess parts to the theme (buttons, button rings, balltops, side plates) along with less busy art with a clear focus and color scheme it can look really nice.

I want to mod this so much but I gotta respect the SFx Sanrio art. It's too nice.
Pink = respect

Don't mod it unless you add more pink buttons

Honestly, if you want a shorter throw, an LS40 is even better, IMO.
The LS-40 also has a softer spring, which would ease the transition from a JLF. Highly recommended.
How do you guys feel about etokki korean sticks? I bought a rev. 4 and so far still getting used to korean buttons. They're more hallow and feel like time to trigger impact is longer than Sanwa buttons.
The distant to contact on Korean joystick is shorter than Japanese sticks, as a result my inputs are usually done before any button inputs. I'll spend more time with those buttons before deciding if I should switch them out with Sanwa buttons.

So... the buttons are a little closer to the stick than I'm used to. *rends shirt* *dies* (*exaggerates*)

It's been a while since I've done this, so remind me: LS-32-01 in an HRAP2 - which way should the 5-pin connector be pointing to ensure correct directions?
If you really want something that has general use, check timbuk2. Their big messenger bags should fit a stick easy.

Upgraded my HRAP2SA from San-blah Dumbshi to full Sexmitsu. Shit is fire.
Aw sheet! _dementia is back. Spitting truth, as always.
Is this the end of our hero? The Hori Store page for the godlike AX S+G seems to have disappeared.

I was trying to see how far that progress meter got, because the last time I checked it was pretty low. This is truly dread, mon.

I checked it on the last day and it was still not to even 25%.
Not sure if that was an actual preorder page or a preorder-with-intent-to-manufacture. Last I saw was that preorders were closed.
And, I did not really see any interest even on shmups.
Sucks either way as I really wanted a branded shooting stick. The SEs still routinely get released but not quite the same.

That's a shame. The Project DIVA F controller got a rather huge last-minute rally too (to the point that I was wondering if it was fixed) =/
Diva F getting a pretty wide release...too.
I'm hoping Hori just winds up producing the STG stick for SDOJ. Q1 and Q2 2013 are really robust on the shooters. Plus, Hori need to make up for not releasing the RS SE.
Must be a pretty tough environment to sell new stick in...so many of them out there now.

still bodes well for at least a japan release.

Just recently got a PS3, so I needed a PS3 stick. Used some Amazon credit I had to get a Brawl stick and I swapped the buttons out for the old Sanwas from my SoulCalibur V stick. Then came up with some custom Skullgirls art for the stick. My first time applying custom art myself without a plexi, and I think I did okay!
Still need to replace the joystick. I ordered an LS-32 to see how I like it, and if I do, that one's going in my main 360 stick and I'll put the JLF on the PS3 stick.

Stick GAF, help an idiot please?
I've got myself some ArcEye 3s, installed and ready to go. I've got a kitty in my TE-S.
What I need is an RGB controller for the ArcEyes.
I've been waiting to see if the Remora would come back in stock for quite a while, but it seems like it won't be? It's been weeks and no real movement on that front (or I totally missed it, either or.)
In any case, what's the best controller to use in this setup? A Sparky? I've been looking into trying to find comparable light controllers for this combination of mods but I've found no solid info, so I figure I'll ask.

..and that's a WRAP.
Would be convenient for home use, but I could see such a thing being banned at tournaments. Plus you'd have to consider lag.
