Many people who follow me on CROSS (that's Japanese for 'X'), have likely seen these, but posting here for others. I compiled a series of Triple Bypass/3BP installation guides for every US revision of the Sega Genesis and have made them available on my github:

I designed a new mod for the Panasonic Q. This is a battery mod so we can swap out dead batteries in the future without soldering. These PCBs are fragile with those feather-lite pads...one time removal of the old battery is enough. Let me know what you think. www.printables.com/model/146596...

Not sure these are particularly rare, but they are certainly some LD grails to me! I got to see Pat Metheny Group live all the way back in 2005, so these will be a fun watch.
