retroillucid #1 Posted January 6, 2011 Here we are, starting a new year ... People that know me, knows how much I care about any Colecovision unreleased stuff, mainly prototype, but also for any artwork and obscure things For about 4 years now, I had a project about making unreleased boxes, Turbo, Slither etc.. The first step in making these were awfull, those boxes were then given to one of my friend who (at time) were collecting CV, He decide to sell them... ouch! In fact, some of you should may have some of those boxes actually In 2007, I decide to remake all of them (some not) ... now, all in High Res this time I also made some that were never made but I used original Coleco artwork for them to make them feel authentic So now I'm planning to make them printed (for my own pleasure) but I'll also propose them to people interested in getting them I should print them for next Spring (April/May) If you're interested in getting them, Let me know soon And now, for the next games coming up? There's Smurf Challenge coming up at the end of January Burn Rubber will be release this year for sure, we just need to correct a bug actually Lode Runner should be release this year too, when? ... only time will tell And some others that will be announced later... These time, I'm mostly working now on, Side Trak, Destruction Derby, Rip Cord, Tunnels & Trolls and Skiing There's also the Virtual Coleco Museum that I'm working on with Jim (NIAD) Alot of stuff is made, the structure of the pages are done, we need to add the stuff in Digging in my archived and also Jim's one, we also need help .... pretty much everyone can contribute.. contact us! Cheers & Happy New Year to all of you! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NIAD #2 Posted January 7, 2011 Sounds like another very busy and exciting year! Just don't forget to find some time for your significant other and the little guy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yurkie #3 Posted January 7, 2011 Boxes look great. How much for the set? If you mailed these shipped flat it would make things easier. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Ransom #4 Posted January 7, 2011 I'd be interested in the boxes. Definitely Slither and Turbo (and Donkey Kong if you chose to make it). How much will you be charging for the whole set? Will you be selling them individually? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
retroillucid #5 Posted January 7, 2011 Definitely Slither and Turbo (and Donkey Kong if you chose to make it). Turbo & Slither will be "mass" produced ... as for DK, I'll not make repro of it sorry How much will you be charging for the whole set? Hard to say now, but I'll keep the cost as low as possible for sure Will you be selling them individually? Yes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Ransom #6 Posted January 8, 2011 Turbo & Slither will be "mass" produced ... as for DK, I'll not make repro of it sorry Sounds good. Understandable about DK. Hard to say now, but I'll keep the cost as low as possible for sure I look forward to it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crapahute #10 Posted January 8, 2011 Would you print a "euro" version like the one I did for Turbo ? : 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
retroillucid #11 Posted January 8, 2011 Would you print a "euro" version like the one I did for Turbo ? : Yeah, I might be able to do that Does this box was ever released in Europe? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crapahute #12 Posted January 8, 2011 I don't think there was any game box for turbo here. I made this one from an artwork for Intellivision. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
retroillucid #13 Posted January 8, 2011 I don't think there was any game box for turbo here. I made this one from an artwork for Intellivision. So Turbo was only pack in with the Expansion Module #2 like here in North America Does Slither get a box in Europe? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
