My C64 Ultimate Starlight Edition did indeed arrive in time for Christmas!

Thanks @commodoreofficial.bsky.social 🥳

Here with my recently and exactly for that purpose acquired Commodore 1802D Monitor hooked up via composite video.

With my C64U coming soon, I needed a new joystick.

Since Commodore hasn't yet shipped my ArcadeRs I looked for a nice 3D-model and printed it myself on my Bambu Lab H2D with Prusa Galaxy Black PLA filament.

I still need to wire it up.

The model is from here: makerworld.com/en/models/67...

Oh, wow, finally! 🤩

My C64 Ultimate Starlight Edition has landed in Europe and the courier has been informed to pick it up.

@commodoreofficial.bsky.social

But i think the info email is rather prone to be sorted out as SPAM: The sender is “Standaard” with the address “noreply@sendcloud.com”.

Amiga Technologies mug from around 1995...1997.

My Ultimate 64 Elite-II from Gideon is up and running smoothly.

My Ultimate 64 Elite-II board is here! 🥰

And I already put it in a nice breadbin case, with a real SID.

It's working perfectly. More pics to come...

My first C64U is on its way.

OK, it's "just" an Ultimate 64 Elite-II mainboard from Gideon.

But that's the next best thing, isn't it?

We Did It. Commodore Is Home.
With the final payment locking in the deal CEO Peri Fractic signed the final contracts in The Netherlands, officially acquiring all 47 original Commodore trademarks. After decades adrift, the brand is finally where it belongs - with fans.

Commodore ist wieder da!

Das muss ich natürlich sofort unterstützen. Habe also gerade einen Commodore 64 Ultimate vorbestellt.

One of my current projects: an Amiga 3000T/040 bought in parts.
1) After removing the paint and before applying Retr0bright.
2) Missing some bolts.
3) Missing RAM and A3640.
4) 3D-printed foot, not the best matching colour.
