bszarek001 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) Hi Everyone, I'm currently in the process of restoring a really beautiful Sears Tele-Games Heavy Sixer. It came to me with both CX-10's and original paddles. The console needed restoration, which is now complete, and the joysticks also needed some work but are now functional. As you can see I have one of the discs but the other was lost somewhere along the line. I know these things are stupid rare, but if anyone happened to have a junker heavy laying around and you have a spare hex disc, please hit me up. I'd love to complete this set. Thanks! (sorry, don't know why the photo is sideways - can't fix it). Edited January 9, 2018 by bszarek001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombstone Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Yes, that is going to be a tough find. I wish you luck, truly. I had literally the same situation a few years back, with everything complete in box for the Sears Telegames Heavy sixer except for one flipping hex disc. Finally found it in a lot on eBay. That was a great day. Keep looking, your day will come! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bszarek001 Posted January 11, 2018 Author Share Posted January 11, 2018 I can't believe how expensive they are. I get that they are rare because they popped off and people threw them out.... I'm just surprised so many people care about them. I guess it's a completist thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombstone Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I have found them in the weirdest places too. I have found one stuck to the gatefold box for a Combat game, underneath the cartridge. I have found one affixed to the back of a cartridge. I have found two attached to the top of a console, symmetrically on both ends. I have found three, on separate occasions, inside heavy sixer consoles (which has prompted me to open up EVERY heavy sixer that I get now), and I have found one stuck inside of a manual (also Combat, I believe). So I seem to find them more often when I am actually NOT looking for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Mitchell Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I remember back in 1977, my sears disc fell off into the speaker grill slots inside the console .. I had to open it up to retrieve it .. both fell off eventually and I had them stored in a box for years until my Mom threw out some stuff .. oh well ..
