Warnings and Considerations
- Touch sensors can be tricky to tricky at times. If you're having trouble, consider using conductive copper tape or drilling hole in IR plastic at top. Put a screw thru the hole, install a metal fastener, and solder a wire to the inside of the fastener. This will isolate the touch sensor from the metal
- This shell uses the updated "black" type-C charge board and our updated 3d printed charge board holder. This will not fit the previous parts.
- Additional Game Boy Color parts required for a complete custom build:
- Original Game Boy Color

Notes
These parts are not mass produced and we use multiple machine shops, so surface finish, texture, and color may vary between batches. Colors may also look different depending on your screen, the lighting, and variations in anodizing.
Please be sure to review our refund policy for cancelled and returned orders.
We cannot change the value of the shipment and sadly we do not have control over your particular country's fee/tariffs/taxes.
Brass parts come as machined and may show oxidation/discolor (due to being exposed to air) and some small machining or small scratches may be present. Assume you will need to do your final surface finishing using a flexible 3M sanding pad. (The 3M 7448 usually works well). After polishing, clean and apply clearcoat, poly, or other coating to maintain the shine. Note Brass is also very dense (heavy) and conductive. Consider in some applications, these attributes may have adverse effects. (ex. The SP hinges will not support the screen as well). If used with electronics, it is advisable to use kapton tape, insulating paint, (nail polish may work) to prevent electrical shorts.
