Vectrex Carry Case Folding Instructions and Photos for GCE / MB Vectrex Logo cases See Folding Instructions and picture in my Google photos album https://photos.app.goo.gl/XYYGgxRZpmy3J5F6A Vectrex Carry Case Collapsing and Folding Instructions: Instructions below are used for the Vectrex Carry Cases shown with branding for General Consumer Electronics (GCE), Milton Bradley (MB), and unbranded Vectrex logo only carry cases.: There were two methods GCE and MB folded the Vectrex Carry Case at the factory. I think this might have been due to different production runs. Both methods are outlined below. The better method "A" is show first in the list. This is also the most common method used even if it was not used in the earliest Carry Case shipments. Please note the first method "A" assumes the carry case side have the creases and folding. If your carry case has the creases and folding in the front-rear then use the other method "B" that follows below method "A". Please note all Vectrex Carry cases have two user component parts to the Carry Case. Component Part 1: The large Carry Case itself. The main body of the Carry Case is made mostly of a fabric similar to Cordura. All carry cases in include a top flap with an attached Velcro strip to hold the closed. All carry cases in include carry handle straps on each side of the case that are sewn in place with rivets for strengthening the strap attachment points. Component Part 2: The Baseplate support. The Baseplate support is made of a carboard flat that is covered in either fabric, or plastic. The baseplate a square, or slightly rectangular, shape. The baseplate is inserted into the inside bottom at the bottom carry case. The baseplate is used to shape the carry case after unfolding. The baseplate also provides some cushioning and structure to the bottom of the carry case. A majority of the Baseplates are covered with a with sewn grey nylon fabric. Other simpler Baseplates were covered with silver colored plastic with heat sealed edges. Vectrex Carry Case Folding Method A (Case with creased sides): Assuming the case is already unfolded and in use, Remove the fabric/plastic baseplate from the interior bottom of the Vectrex Carry Case. Stand the carry case vertically with the bottom of the case up. Ensure the top flap is unfolded from the case. The sides of the Carry Case are creased vertically at the middle between the carry handle strap attachment points. Push sides slightly inward ensuring they are both folding inward at the crease. At the same time as folding inward, tuck the fabric bottom inward into the folds. Continue folding side and tucking in bottom until the carry case is fully collapsed. Tuck the carry handle straps into the side folds. After collapsing the carry case place the baseplate over the front logo. Fold the top cover over the front front of the carry case covering both the baseplate and logo. Vectrex Carry Case Folding Method B (Case with creased front and rear): Assuming the case is already unfolded and in use, Remove the Fabric/Plastic baseplate from the interior bottom of the Vectrex Carry Case. Stand the carry case vertically with the bottom of the case up. The front and back of the carry case are creased vertically at the middle with the crease running through the front Logo. Fold the top cover up to the bottom of the carry case to cover the rear of the carry case. Push front and rear of the case slightly inward ensuring they are both folding inward at the crease. At the same time as folding inward, tuck the fabric bottom inward into the folds. Also tuck the top cover into the carry case rear fold. Continue folding the case with tucking in bottom and ensuring the top cover is folding into the rear crease until the carry case is fully collapsed. After collapsing the carry case place the baseplate over the front logo. Fold the top cover over the front front of the carry cases covering both the baseplate and logo. For people shipping a Vectrex Carry Case some extra details. Fully collapse a folded back by placing inside of a plastic bag and using a vacuum source to draw out the excess air. After collapse you will be able to fit a bagged carry case inside one of the following boxes for shipment • USPS Priority Mail Regional Rate Box B2 SKU RRB-B2X, • USPS Priority Mail Box 1095 SKU O-1095X, • UPS Large UPS Express Box. (snug fit) Shipping weight should be 3 Lbs (2 Lbs 12 Oz) or about 1.3 Kg BTW, I DO NOT recommend shipping a Vectrex carry case only inside a polyethylene mailing envelope. Those envelopes have no support and can easily rip, offering little protection against crushing and stains. Instead place the folded carry case inside a pouch or Ziploc sliding channel storage bag before placing it inside the mailer. And if you decide to use a plastic envelopment mailer, then make it a large bubble cushioned mailer. These Vectrex carry cases also carry the Bandai Vectrex (バンダイ 光速船 / Kousokusen) but do not have the Japanese logo or language. The Bandai Vectrex only had an unpadded and unpocketed carry bag for the Japan region. Below is an album with pictures for that regional bag. https://photos.app.goo.gl/qQcRydzp1MfxLzI62

vectrex Selling Custom Minestorm Wraps for Vectrex
Stephen5200 posted a topic in Buy, Sell, and Trade
Hello! I wanted to offer the people on AtariAge the opportunity to purchase one of the MineStorm decal wraps I designed for the Vectrex. Take a look at the attached images and let me know what you think! I'll be doing a limited print run of 50 wraps. There is a pre-order list. If you are interested, please comment below and I'll add your name to it. Pricing will be $75 for the wrap, $15 for shipping to the US and $25 to ship internationally. (Shipping costs are estimates and are subject to change) I'll be making payment requests in the next couple of weeks, once I've gotten a few more people signed up. Payment will be made through PayPal. The material is repositionable, pressure activated vinyl with a UV laminate to protect the decal (and your Vectrex) from light damage. It's designed to be removed without leaving residue or damaging the surface. It's the same vinyl decal material used to wrap vehicles, and of course that has to eventually be removed when you sell the vehicle or change the wrap. So don't worry about damaging your precious consoles! These decals will actually protect them and will come off clean when you're ready to remove them. They're also easy to install, and require no special tools.- 25 replies

Hey AtariAge! Thanks for everybody's feedback and support on my endeavor to create reproduction Vectrex overlays. The price has settled in at $9.99 per overlay and they are available on eBay (or at www.vectrexoverlays.com). I'm going to be offering a special rate for members of AtariAge - $6.99 per overlay plus a flat shipping rate of $5.15 regardless of quantity. All you need to do is email me through AtariAge with your request, I'll send you a PayPal invoice and you can buy overlays at a special AtariAge price. If you were one of my original buyers, I'll offer you two free overlays with an order of three or more (I've created new home brew overlays since you ordered your first set). Enjoy! (Check out the eBay auctions for photos and descriptions...come back to AtariAge.com to request your overlays for a discount!)

Yes you heard it...the reproduction overlay guy is closing out his collection! Fear not...I'll still make overlays for those who request them from www.vectrexoverlays.com. I'm debating selling my entire Vectrex collection in one swoop....here is what it includes: Vectrex System - great condition Two Controllers - both in great condition (one has a tighter spring than the other but even the "looser" spring is still very responsive) Reproduction Light Pen from RecycledGamer 3D Imager in excellent condition MineStorm color wheel VecMulti microSD card "Multicart" pre-loaded with almost every Vectrex Game you can think of A complete set of 43 reproduction overlays (made by yours truly....still selling for $6.99 a piece at www.vectrexoverlays.com) The last remaining reproduction kiosk display unit (also made by yours truly....originally sold for $400 a piece...only 9 more in existence) So there it is....I'd love to hear your feedback on what you think a collection like this is worth, whether you think I'm crazy for letting it go, whether you want to buy it or know somebody who does....and how in the world you think I should ship a collection like this LOL! Thanks for everybody's support of my overlay endeavor....it's been real, it's been fun, it's been real fun.

I've always wondered what people think are the most epic game consoles that didn't shine as much or were too underrated. Not obvious choices like theNES or atar 2600 etc. My favorite has got to be the Vectrex so awesome
