They're just the boxes, the only cartridge included is the dukebox cartridge as far as I can see.

There's a crack in the external packaging! That's got to drop the price to at least €1249! :D

How rare is this?

But will it ever work!?


I like the fact that the developer preferred the classic tall key CPC keyboard  ;)


I think the motherboard is a CPC6128+...

"Should work"... A pretty confident statement for such a rusted machine. But it could be restorable.

I view two interesting thinks. The dma patch ic  is paste  near de fdc with silicone.


It not have the separation of plus pcb with the lk6 that permit disconnect the ic and connect the signal directly to the asic.


That nobody have try ever.


It appear that  the ic it's add on the "fly",there is not tracks in the motherboard.. It paste with silicone and add to signal boards manually by wires..


That confirm amstrad don't aware about asic bug until the first batch of prototype boards was built.




And the rgb ic appears some type of prototype maybe some cpld or something else, but no the oficial amstrad ic all we have.

Hi Dragon


So you are saying that the UBI-Soft no 5 is sort of a prototype(or very early CPC+) handed out to the UBI-soft developers before the official release?

Yes, exactly a early prototype with the  patch unfinished and the dac part video out unfinished In the pcb.


And I think with lk5 activated autoboot cp/m. (picture is not very well).


That is another thing bugged in the cartridge.. So I can asumme the system cartridge they used was some prototype without  the bug.


It also have z90901 that is from the early numeration system where all comercial plus range uses the new numeration system so is from 89/88.


And the asic is a prototype. It not use the amstrad printing... It used the manufacturer identification model chip.... Thosiba maybe.

Hi Gunhed
What do you mean!?? Is £185 cheap :o ? I like the keyboard though, the classic 464 kb has always been my favorite!  ;)

Wow, it went for less than a regular 6128 Plus! Have any of these ever turned up before?

I bet we'll see this selling for £1000+ a couple of years down the line. I wish I'd seen this thread earlier!

Well, technically nobody know their existence, at operational level they don't  should be diference with comercial computers.


The patchs are provisional made manualy with wires. The only  diference is that  in comercial computers  all are integrated in the pcb tracks.


And the asic should be the same, the diference is you can know the exact model that uses amstrad.


Probably amstrad don't have finished the case, the keyboard  and the fdd when  they should send it. That's the reason they made a Frankenstein. As the 464 only wanted have games from day one.


I probably bid in another date ... but that's unfortunate. I have reserved now the ps5. :(. But because I like these things if are cheap.


People don't care much about plus range. If that should be  a 464 prototype they should go to 1000e o more.
