Hey guys.
I'm leaving on Thursday to live in Seoul, and one thing that's been whispered about in the Korean part community is about the Myoungshin Fanta Airbags, a recent custom redesign of the popular Myoungshin Fanta arcade stick.
What is it you ask? From kkolding, who has used one:
For reference, what I have heard are the "Thai" microswitches are essentially the same that Seimitsu uses in their sticks, which are my personal favorites for switches.
As of right now, Airbags are only available from ISTmall which only ships to Korean addresses. This is where I'll come in as an intermediary.
The Airbags are being sold for around 18,000 Korean won (but I haven't checked the shipping total to my address in Korea yet, will do when I get there.) Depending on S&H within Korea, I'm planning to sell them for between $22-23 + shipping. Price is in flux right now because I'm not 1000% sure on logistics yet. But that's what we're looking at right now.
For now, I'm wanting to know who's interested in buying these, and how many they want. Any questions, hit me up. If you want a shipping quote, I'll try to provide one for you once I get to Korea and go to the post office.

Spoiler:
Crazy good stuff!
You don't really seem to miss anything from the official manufactures, there is a completely different marked for k-sticks.
there are a few small shops that modify the joysticks. the most popular stick to mod is the Myoungshin Fanta, They call them "Myoungshin Fanta Airbag"
They change the latex rubber to a silicone rubber, and use Thailand micro switches and support the switches underneath and on top of them.
Normal Fanta / Fanta airbag
Quick comparison with the Crown 307 and Myoungshin fanta
The Myoungshin Fanta Airbag is the golden standard for top players in korea. Infiltration, JDCR etc. etc. uses this version.
when it comes to arcades they tend to use cheaper parts, and you never really know what you are play
