  1. I’ll need to look up those PCB’s then and see. It’s such as odd cart once it was opened. Given that he had 3 days to make it, it would not be shocking for a programmer to just use an Apollo cart laying around as they had a good chance of having an EPROM board inside. The collection that it came from had some rare and unique pieces, so it’s not fully out of the question. the game is the same as the final program, though with 3 days I’d be shocked if it wasnt
  2. Hi, I have been unable to find any pictures of Chase the Chuck Wagon’s PCB. Does anyone have a picture? I have a copy pulled from an Apollo Cartridge with an AP2001 EPROM board
  3. I hunted for that Atari Safari bag for a while before I got mine. I just got in this beauty if anyone else has one to compared. As far as I can tell it’s authentic. Don’t want to post a heads on pic just due to rarity, not yet at least. It’s the same tag as the other two sword quest shirts too
  4. I have never seen the little food fight guys. I fully understand the fear of companies taking the images, though thankfully for most there are ways to authenticate. I may reach out at some point for some pics if you’re willing and thanks for sharing!!!
  5. A few beautiful pieces! Thanks for sharing!
  6. Hey everyone, I am currently working on a book relating to the various memorabilia and merchandise regarding video games up until roughly 2000. I have been fortunate enough to find a fair amount of pieces on my own, though I am now looking for help! I would love to see any pieces you may have and possibly include them in this project! (or possibly even purchase the items) I have currently kept a focus on clothing and accessories, though anything related to video games between 1970-2000 is being considered. I have included some images on this post for examples. Some of what I am currently looking for and want to ensure are in the book are listed below. Current pieces I want to see/buy: - Yars Revenge Fly Spray -All Pencils and Dealer Box -Megamania Light Pen -Atari Rocket -Any Imagic Piece (Shirts, etc) -Any Activision Shirts/Promos -Obscure Shirts This is just a shortlist, there are so many items and I want to try and incorporate anything you can think of! I am hoping to gather as high of quality images as possible to create a physical appendix of these items to prevent their loss. I am still working on my own images and adjusting as I go. Thanks in advance!!!!
  7. If you stumble across any cib 5200 titles I may be interested, I have roughly 10 left for the set, nothing crazy thankfully, mostly activision and mr. dos castle
  8. A few weeks back I had an opportunity to buy a 5200 diagnostic cartridge and was sent a picture of the other items that were purchased by the seller from what appeared to either be a technician’s collection or a store owners old stuff. This “kluge” cart was in the picture so I jumped on it, but opening it did not help answer any of my questions lol. Curious if anyone would know any reasons for all resistors or if the guy just did it to see
  9. That's really cool to know. I was hype that the risk panned out the way I was hoping. Now to fine tune some controllers lol
  10. I managed to stumble across a listing last week that was interesting and decided to take a gamble on it. Thankfully it is exactly what I was hoping for and I am excited to show it to the world. I was wondering what all info there is about these carts, I plan to continue digging but I never thought I would stumble across one, especially that all appears to be legit and not a repro
  11. My bad on the slow reply, I don't see any messages. I'm definitely still interested.
  12. Not rubbing salt at all lol, though I am highly suspicious that they themselves are buying them to raise the prices. Here's an item number of the last sealed dice puzzle that sold 223269610778 , less than $50... I will say that I don't quite have a hoard, but I managed to grab a fairly large lot of sealed (and a few that had popped open) Panda releases. I have a few Sea Hawks, Space Canyons, Dice Puzzles, and Harbor Escapes I am personally keeping, but the rest have sold except for a legit sealed Space Canyon, not the one they resealed. Most of the rest went to others on here.
  13. It was a bit hi, the last actual sale was like $225 in much better shape. I have a nicer sealed copy that I haven't listed quite yet
  14. Here is the item number I believe (293032401554). I believe they took down the listing after I called them out and messaged them. I'm curious if the dice puzzle they sold was bought by them too, as they otherwise lied to me directly, but they seem like the company to falsely buy their own product to raise the price. I would take the whole description on all from that lot lightly, as none of it seems accurate. One Harbor Escape was open when I sent it too, along with that Space Canyon I mentioned. They are legit, at least being legitimate Panda releases, but they are blatantly lying on the conditions and how they got them. My listing they bought the Space Canyon from is 254126409526
  15. He approached me on my listing of the Space Canyon he is selling now. I sold the bundle to him as it was a quicker way to move part of the stock I bought, and I just needed the cash for the rare built-in Pong TV I bought. I'm more annoyed that he at least resealed the Space Canyon and one Harbor Escape I sold him was opened as well, along with blatant lies in the listing. I find it hilarious too that they were from a "case" and were a "mail only distributor," yet they left the $12.50 price stickers that were there when I bought the bulk lot that had these
  16. XD I forgot lol I mean, I valued the lot at around $600 and he payed $525 for them so, I'll take the quicker sale and not sit on them, especially since I have more lol
  17. Hi everyone, I just wanted to give a heads up on a listing that this seller falsified the information on. I know they aren't super well liked anyways, but I know the information is fake as I sold them to them. I only sold to them as since they overvalue everything, I was able to get more than I would of from selling individually and quicker. Also, they resealed this Space Canyon, I know this as I only sold them my opened copy and that is the exact one they have in the picture. Basically all of the information is wrong on the listing. But hey, if you can make way too much from them, I'd say sell to them, but probably don't buy lol. Just wanted to give a heads up. Also, I do have a legitimately sealed copy in better shape if anyone would be serious on it.
  18. Thanks! I could hardly believe it when I saw it. I had seen the one video on youtube and a few pictures, but I never fathomed seeing one, especially owning one. My main worry was to not overpay, but it is one of those items you only get one chance to buy a lifetime
  19. Hey everyone, I recently got a steal of a deal on a CIB Quest for Quintana Roo for the 5200, but I was curious if it is suppose to have a cartridge tray or not? I saw a listing that one had it, but most did not, and I am curious if I am going to have to track one down soon.
  20. Thanks! I actually just stumbled on it on a facebook search. I hardly ever search for Magnavox Odyssey anymore as they are either way to high, or never there, I just go super lucky on this one though. The guy said that his grandmother had bought 3 sets, but I'm assuming the other 2 were likely trashed at some point, which is sad. It has definetly seen some better days (looks like a lava lamp used to be on it as there is a small droop and discoloration), but overall, especially for the price I paid and the rarity, it is in good shape. I truly never expected to find one, but luck, patience and timing is everything
  21. Hi everyone, I made a "grail" addition to my collection this weekend and thought I'd share. I finally found the elusive Magnavox Odyssey 4305! I'd love to know who else on here owns one, as I 'd love to work up some numbers on how many are left. I bought it with 2 sets of paddles, and the guy said his grandmother had originally bought 3 (I gathered that this was the last one they still had), which explained the extra controllers. I never thought I would find one, especially since they dont stand out obviously, But I am ecstatic to start the cleaning processes and a few minor repairs to make it a bit safer. (sorry for the picture being sideways, I can never get it to post them correctly )
  22. **Currently Sold-Out, May Sell More In The Future** Hey everyone, I recently aquired some Panda releases, most being sealed in box. I am not entirely sure what is all there as I will not have full time to analyze them and figure out what is all there. I took a photo of one of the Sea Hawk copies, the one that was the worst of the few Sea Hawks I have, but there are at least one of Dice Puzzle, Harbor Attack, Sea Hawk, and Space Canyon. With I beleive 2 or 3 of the total boxes had opened from time and heat, but only one cart was possible to take out due to cardboard holding them in unless the bottom is opened or the cardboard is torn. The one I was able to take out appeared super minty, which seems rare for these releases. I may also be able to get a scan or 2 that may not be on the site already, if their is anyone I should send them to. I will likely sell a few soon, but I figured I'd check interest on here first before ebay.
