Rev Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Hey Dude...is this the song you mentioned in your video??? I am envisioning you breakdancing on a banket in your living room... http://youtu.be/E4SQz33JJbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Yes, I would use a hair dryer. Try on one corner first and SLOWLY lift up the corner. DO NOT use anything but your fingernail maybe. I have gotten off alot of stickers this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+evg2000 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 also, if it does appear to be attach only at the corners you might want to carefuly slide something under the sticker and cut it into four so you can work on each piece of glue independently. If you don't any you start pulling one corner, you might accidentally tear another corner when the first one comes loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cmart604 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Dude, that turned out awesome! Good for you! I'm thinking that those may have come from INTV late in the life of the company. We know that they ended up shipping some games out in bags, maybe they just had extra Mountain Madness boxes and extra Super Pro Decathlon manuals and created this Frankenstein package as a solution to use up their remaining supplies. Hmmmmm...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+thegoldenband Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Ha, I just got one of these, along with an Auto Racing box that had a Pole Position sticker on it. Here's the auction: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 180842235144 I figured I'd take a chance on it, and hit the BIN a few hours after the auction came up. Just got it, and everything looks good. If only it had come with the Mountain Madness cart! Has the Auto Racing one been seen before? It seems like both of these are legit, if bizarre, variants.

Rev Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 yeah, i wonder if these came with the stickers on them from intv? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+thegoldenband Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 With two copies with identical stickers, I'm guessing they must have. They certainly wouldn't be saleable at retail that way! Is there another distributor who might've had a hand in it, I wonder? Is there any reason I shouldn't just hairdryer these off? I don't want to destroy a rare variant but I do want a Mountain Madness box... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntellivisionDude Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 After getting the sticker off mine i realized it was just paper cut out of a Decathlon manual glued in 6 spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Shouldnt be too hard to remove with a hair dryer. I think Dude said he had to get it REALLY hot though in his video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+thegoldenband Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yeah, I've had good luck hairdrying off stickers in the past. Slow and steady. Like I said, I just want to make sure I'm not destroying a variant that anyone is yearning to have. I once almost removed a Japanese sticker from an Odyssey^2 game, and that one sticker turned out to change the value from $3 to $75! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
