Greetings and welcome to the forum!

You might put a WTB post in the marketplace, or PM minestorm, who makes the FB+’s. I don’t know what the current status is, but I think production is on hold at the moment. I don’t want to put words in his mouth, though!

What’s your collection like?

Welcome to the Best VB community!

I’m infront with the repro’s at the moment. So, as soon as I get more FB+ PCB’s, I’ll be building enough to cover the back-order list (which is large). I have a week off work soon so I’ll complete them then.

Awesome! Cheers for the replies! And please count me in (just to add tot he backlog!…sorry)

I doff my hat to you, sir.

If you do an item+description search on ebay for “flashboy” or “flash boy” (with quotations) you may find an auction. I saw someone selling a group of VB games recently, and one of the carts was the FlashBoy Plus. I think it was within the last week, so there’s a chance you could still see it πŸ™‚
