Archive.org capture of the original Mad Catz product page, used for the Sanwa JLF lever and OBSF-30 buttons, the Vewlix-style layout, the tool-less hinged top panel with internal storage, the removable bezel and clear top panel with an included screwdriver for artwork swaps, the heavy metal base with non-slip foam padding, and the official product photography. The box-contents section of this snapshot is a template artifact with unrelated text and was ignored.
