+the1hatman Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Found this item on eBay last week tucked inside of a B-17 Bomber box... Was just a regular Hong Kong edition of B-17 and wasn't marked as any kind of international release so the Italian manual was a surprise. The voice translation key on the back cover is really cool. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+the1hatman Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Nice variant pickup! You're gonna get sucked into the vortex! Just wait! Thanks! But that is still pretty unlikely for me. I've decided to spend my post-Original 125 completion dollars hunting for homebrews rather than variations. While I'm not chasing a complete set of all past and future homebrew games, there are enough new titles coming out that I'd rather put my limited hobby resources towards those vs. slightly different versions of things I already have. I do not see anything wrong with variant hunting. In fact I consider it vital to preserving the history of our favorite system. It's just that I do not have the means to have such a large scope for my personal collection. This becomes even more true for me with the Amico on the horizon. I have to allocate those dollars carefully 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSRSteve Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 A couple more things: Space Hawk NIS signed (2 copies) - https://www.ebay.com/itm/302986724468 One more Lounge Trio package (Lives/Rocks/HiFi) - https://www.ebay.com/itm/302986731240 This is the last Lounge Trio, I promise. I do have a few opened Intellivsion Rocks to get up after I make sure they are readable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Steve Jones Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Did not know those came sealed, looks like it is getting crushed inside that shrinkwrap though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intvsteve Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 That seller has quite a few nice things - many in shrink that appears to be valid from the period based on price stickers, etc. Hard to tell if any of the stickers are under the shrink, though. Prices are not low, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 One concern I have is that Congo Bongo came with a hang-tab on top of the box. It seems strange that Sega would manufacture a box designed for hanging and then shrinkwrap it. I am no expert with sealed Intellivision games (I avoid sealed games, in fact) but my gut says that the store sealed it back in the day, not Sega. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am no expert with sealed Intellivision games (I avoid sealed games, in fact) but my gut says that the store sealed it back in the day, not Sega. Growing up we had a discount seller in our small rural town called "Dock 44". They still sold Intellivision items, new, well into the 90s. I wouldn't be surprised if a seller like them, 20 years ago, would shrink-wrap items to keep contents from falling out and make it look nicer for buyers. I'm still waiting for the stash of unsold items to pop up at a garage sale or estate sale in town... I'm sure there's some gems to be found in Kansas of all places.

+JasonlikesINTV Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Even if the plastic seal was added later, it still served to preserve the box and hang tab. That's one of the best condition Congo Bongo boxes I've seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSRSteve Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I found two more NIS Intellivision Rocks and decided to put one in a 3-day auction instead of the fixed price that sold immediately - https://www.ebay.com/itm/302993202518 I also have half a dozen or so open ones that I need to verify first before selling.

Common for stores to shrink-wrap games to prevent the little bastards from taking the carts home. :-) Toys R Us did it and KB Toys did it.
