Taiwan - Double-Game Package

[Schitti]

i am sorry for digging out this old thread again, but the case if the double-game-package "Motocross / Boom Bang" exists, is not closed.

more than a year has passed and in that time I have seen more than one auction at ebay germany with these two titles together in one auction. in my eyes it seems that the so called "Double-game-package" in this case was only sold as a bundle.

 

It is very surprising that i know from some collectors that they have both games together in their collection.

 

has someone ever seen a ad or perhaps even a box from the "Motocross / Boom Bang" or is it only a rumour since ages?

 

eBay Auction -- Item Number: 330694884597

 

 

 

and here is another pic from a auction in november 2011

also ebay germany

 

 

I have not saved any auctions.

Schitti, I think you're right.

 

I've never seen a Double-Game package box of these two and I always wondered about that single Motocross box and the typical Boom Bang serial number.

 

It's a bit strange however that the Boom Bang lay-out has a typical Cooper Black lay-out, while the Motocross box has its own lay-out.

I'll combine these two in our Double-Game Package section.

 

[Schitti]

yes

crazy that only the motocross layout fits to the double-game-packages. the box has the same style.

 

very mysterious

[Rom Hunter]

Yes, but the typical Boom Bang serial number also leads to the direction that these were sold as a bundle.

 

Here's another mystery for you:

what exactly do you mean?

the serialnumber?

I have exactly the same number on three games. (if my list is correct) i have to proof this at home.

fancy car - taiwan cooper black

kampf in der galaxie - taiwan bodoni

motocross - quelle

Yes, I know the black Quelle carts and the Taiwan - Bodoni carts all have boxes with this serial number.

 

But where does Fancy Car fit in?

[Schitti]

ah, ok.

good question. the serial does not fit to all the other taiwan cooper black games.

I have always been sorted it into that category. This may not be true.

 

sadly i have no idea at the moment.

[Schitti]

 

But where does Fancy Car fit in?

 

 

@Rum Hunter

That kept me busy.

Perhaps we need a extra section?

 

the fancy car fits perfect to the pink Tennis (not the red) two different box scans are currently in the cooper black section

here is a pic from the fancy car box (link is from Generalhellfire's collection "Show us your collection")

Interesting.

 

Forgot about that specific Tennis box, but Fancy Car looks indeed from that series.

 

If more of these show up, perhaps I will make a seperate category.

 

I added all 657644 serial numbers to our database for better reference:

If you find more of them, please let me know.

 

BTW: did you notice that these boxes look older than the Cooper Black and Quelle series?

 

[Schitti]

good idea with the serainumbers.

 

yes, the boxes looks a bit ancient.

interesting ist that the taiwan bodoni boxes have are all same colour (Light blue or turquoise) and written in lower case

Abfahrtslauf

Kampf in der Galaxie

ET will nach hause

Sesam öffne dich

 

the TENNIS and FANCY CAR are both pink and written in capital letters.

It is quite possible that even more can be found

 

 

have you noticed that the boxed Scorpion must be from the same series as the motocross and the boom bang from the double-game-packages?

the same sticker over the serial on the lower right in front of the box?

[Rom Hunter]

Yes, I noticed this long time ago.

 

Would like to know which other game it came bundled with, though.

 

The serial number is most probably 648187

 

[Rom Hunter]

It's under Taiwan - Double-Game Package now.

seems to be a hard nut to find the second part. i have no idea which title it can be. none of the loose carts i have in mind.
