Questions

How big is the REF1386 PCB?

It measures 53.5 × 89.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 0.8 mm thick.

What parts does the REF1386 use?

23 parts, built around the BC847C. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the REF1386 KiCad files?

From the RWeick/REF1386-Gameboy-Color-Gameshark repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is REF1386.kicad_pcb and its schematic REF1386.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the REF1386 design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
