Got a Taz-mania boardset off of Ebay some time back, aside of missing almost everything socketed it came with the top board mutilated as shown in the picture.

I got lucky, found a replacement board on Ebay and actually got it working, but I have NO idea why someone would need a scrap piece of PCB like that enough to wreck a perfectly good board.

Also got this Star Fire set that apparently some bored kid decided to use as a painting canvas:

Took me forever to clean it all off.
