I got a new message from Nick. He said as long as a good amount of people email him he’ll make a pre order. If you don’t have FB you can use this: nick@boxypixel.comiTJ84 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 1:45 pmI’m glad I wasn’t the only one that missed out on those shells.

I bought everything but the shell. I wanted to do a boxy Pixel version but after reaching out to Boxy he replied with this:
"It's an extremely slow selling product. I even lowered the price to near the cost to manufacture, so it's unlikely I'll make it unfortunately."
After a bit of conversation, he sent the following response:
"Update: I had not planned on making more as they were a slow moving, expensive product. The last price I listed was actually below the cost to make the parts. Since I've had several people email, what I will do is see if anyone wants to do a group by. I need to make an order of at least 50, but if someone can get 40 people together - I will make an order for the housings. Note, I also updated the price to the original price.

I am currently a mod on both MachoNacho's Discord and The Metal Game Boy FB group and am working on coordinating on how we can get a group buy going:
If anyone wants to help get this moving, can you please reach out the Boxy Pixel on FB:

Additionally, if this doesn't pan out, anyone know where I may buy a shell that can fit the components including the 4 button back plate?

Thanks again love your products hopefully we can see a new gen some day.kite wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 12:28 amHi, this is more of a support email thing but you can try - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32862842753.html (FFC/FPC Flat Cable Receptacle Connector 0.5MM 54P Drawer Top)Vernpi wrote: ↑Sun Nov 28, 2021 6:20 pmMissed out on the gems but got the hd screen to finish my boxy build. Hey kite here's a weird one for ya. The brown clip that holds the lcd ribbon in the socket, do you sell those? Is there any way i could find/buy one? I just made an order with you so if there's anyway we can include it that would be incredible. If not perhaps some guidance on how I can find another one? Thanks bro.
With pliers/snips if you gently break the white plastic so that you can free the black bar from it, you can then use that to replace a missing/broken one on the Circuit Sword

Received an email from Boxy Pixel. If anyone is interested in a DMG CM3 (Gameboy Zero Circuit Sword) aluminum shell go to following link of a Google doc and fill out the form with name and email. They’re looking to get 40+ people interested before they decide if they’ll proceed or not.Madblaster6 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 3:37 pmI got a new message from Nick.
