I don't see an online presence for a flashback at meiers? local or nothing? would be interested in buyin the other for a bargain, but not otherwise:) ....me

i wasnt gonna hoard it to make money on sellin units. i simply meant to have a supply of controllers to use with my original intellivisions. THATS whats valuable to me. SOOOOOOO u have my ear now:) u r gonna improve upon flashback then and make it so it can be used as direct improvement for us old school dudes who like the old consoles? if thats the case im onboard with a little patience. this is awesome. wish someone would have done this yrs ago. now complete overlay sets for anything intellivision ever made is all i need to be in collectors heaven! oh and mass produced spikers, wrestling etc:)...........THANX!

well i see on site. pdf for overlay images available soon? different than actual overlays? r these ACTUAL identical overlays? also whats the price and game list? more importantly whats the cost? u buyin flashbacks in bulk to be cost competitive? how much?.......concerned citizen

awesome, so now i ask how long is this flashback thing gonna be in existance for if no offer of extra parts? this a one yr pony or what? do i need to start hoarding or is this gonna be around for a while? AND fromyer response i assume the controllers ARE plug and play?.........scot

let me clarify. i think ive been told button use on flashbacks side buttons r soft touch and VERY improved on? i now have carpatunel and some games i use the side buttons hard i have a hard time with. your adapter if thats true would be a godsend for my tired hands!......scot

ok i see this and thinkin why buy a flashback then? ok i still have not been to a store to physically see these so im gonna ask stupid question. can u buy spare controllers for the flashback? do they simply plug in and out like an intv2 or hard wired like brown consoles? if this allows me to simply buy a couple spare controllers and plug into aintv 2 i think that would be the route for me?.......scot

so yer sayin the flashback DOES include some orphan overlays? so lookup a intelly lives on faceboook then? selling overlays for how much or dont we have any info? much cheaper than this character wanting $15 a pair? well last time i went to one of my dollar generals there wernt any consoles either. online the only way to go? guess i wanted to touch it and feel it make the decision on the spot if i want one or not.......scot

hey a question on repro boxes. do these affect value to a collector or? i picked up a diner repro box and wonderin if i can get good money for it with cart and manual on ebay or is it undesireable cuz a repro? i still prefer the originals. the back covers have so much better detail. i have the best original diner ive ever seen and wonderin. what to sell, i have many loose diners could throw in repro box. maybe i should hang onto my original? not much worse than the repro box. opinions? i see some and wonder if they r repro boxes and they dont state it........scot

ok im sure i missed some things, but i too have not found any flashbacks to look at. on family dollar list to email me when they come in. i see some orphan overlays a guy from uk is sellin on ebay. got me wonderin. do the games on flashback like the super pros, toer of doom, spiker, mud buggies etc COME with inserts? i dont want to pay this guy $15 a pair for them and wonderin if another perk for buyin a flashback. assuming i will ever find one. how the heck do some of u guys have this for so many months and i have yet to find one? need more info or to see one on shelf to even know if i want one of the danged things!..........scot

well if the buttons r improved i will buy one or two or 3? glad that was addressed the rest of this stuff is for the techies. i just want playability. im old and need some robotic pressing pressure relief!.......THAT guy

they might as well! i just want easier to press buttons! i dont know why the heck intv didnt fix that problem. i guess young and tohg at the time but now im a senior citizen! did anything help that issue? lost out on auction of big red button thingy that clicked on there. went for over a $100, but maybe that means it was worth it?........scot

hey guys i havnt been watchin lately cuz they wernt supposed to be out anytime soon but i see them all over ebay now? whats the real deal and where and when can i get one? i hope i sisnt miss out somehow?......scot

well all that variant talk gived me a headache and im pretty sure my copies r intv. ive sold hundreds and hundreds of these these past months. i know i offered up before but im not sure how to keep track of it. ive seen multiple manuals all different colors of same series etc. i have a few foreign ones. if someone wants me to look for something rare they want they should send me a list to look out for. or a list in a forum somewhere not sure if practical or that helps? maybe takes the fun out of lookin?......scot

hey guys, finally got a he man comic for mine and i got a cool flyer with an astrosmash. about a contest. i wonder how many of those kinda promotional things r floatin around out there? anyone collect that stuff? AND>>>>>>>>>>>>>how do i get more info about the toys r us intelly comin out? u guys r talkin about overlays and stuff but i dont see any info like that? im assumin its wireless from pic. where can i see detailed pics, specs, details etc. game list would be invaluable! wierd toys r us puts it up not havin any details???????........scot

well i got my next two game lots today. awesome river raid and a nicer donkey kong jr box but still no manual(:. venture box inprovement and a lady bug and zaxxon with box flaw but awesome deal. u guys mentioned donkey kong jr as rare? never felt that way but wondered why i never saw one come up! got me thinkin of the literature. where is smurfs and avenger? do they actually exist? never seenm one for intellivision. the collection thickens:).........scot

people just takin advantage. whats new.......

whos roger now? why doesnt psycho or roger make them available to all of us affordably is my question!.......concerned citizen!

well u gonna share the name of the guy so some of us can share in the wealth? AND those prices r WAY lower than buyin a stormtrooper package. i just wanna enjoy the "sport" and have the interesting stuff as well!.........scot

does this england person sell them? for other games? affordable? would be cool but not necessary. couldnt afford the stormtrooper sets that came up (:.....scot

hey guys had this sent to me. a diner overlay. is this a stormtrooper ho made thing or what? looks nice, wish i had a pair!........scot http://www.intvfunhouse.com/intvcorp/overlay/dine-1.jpg

awesome i was thinkin $100 and will go that route. thanx for yer expertise in this matter! scored a river raid in a $40 game lot. hoping i coninue at this pace!......scot

so what should i be askin for a really nice complete diner anyhoo? prices seem all over the board but mines on the nicer side of things........scot

anyone interested in a very nice complete diner? gonna put on ebay but figured might try this to trade for some games i still need. most of my needs r fairly rare like the diner but who knows, im puttin it out there if someone still doesnt have that one!.......scot

he, he, i LUV u guys!.........THAT guy

u r all very welcome, im here to entertain but lets get back to my $2000 box? any interest? im just kidding unless yer serious?.....DEAR.... DABERT......... i take my collecting totally UNserious. dont spell ck that one either! hmmmm, must consult my scrabbel board on that one! if i WAS serious i would do something insane like pay $500 for a box. good heavens i hope noone falls for that online to ruin the hobbie for the rest of us and god forbid set a precedent! didnt look at yer box auctions to see if still up, yer free to sell them any way u wish but if have access to make them complete why didnt u go that route? at least someones gettin SOMETHING for their money that way and not havin to hunt down other peices? i started that way but decided to quit as it doesnt seem to be fiscally responsible and look for complete and maybe pay a buck or TWO more. anyone got success stories on puttin RARE cart together from peices on a budget? no offense to anyone of course, im just a middle of the rd dude!.........PEACE and luv and all that nonsense! so nobody offered up where might be the best education forum to get some answers to some things or should i just keep swingin on here?.........self proclaimed new CEO mattel electronics inc........WARship me!
