Originally Joined in 2001, left in 2004/2005 due to board drama (thanks to casey collectables and the s.storm he brought with him) and real life milestones,( Marriage, Black belt, change of address, some family members passed away ect.)
came back in 2011, but it wasn't the same, took another hiatus from the Neo Geo life style, (continued training to make Nidan in 2014)Had a kid, sold some of my AES,s (kinda regret it) to pay bills (and for a transformers collecting habit) watched KoF go from bad (everything 3-d wasn't for me) to good (KoF XIII was my fighter of choice for a bit) back to bad (KoF XIV) walked away from Fighting games all together when KoF XIV and Street Fighter 5 weren't doing anything for me till Samurai shodown 2019 was given to me as a gift from my wife, then bought the Japanese LE ( they got me with that freaking AES case packing a art book and OST!).

Current Neo related "Hardware":
