Rom Hunter Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 http://www.atarimania.com/2600/boxes/hi_res/laser_blast_cart_4.jpg I want to get rid of that scan if it's indeed sunfaded. Any idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobracon Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Is the end of the label the same color? I does look sunfaded to me though. Red always turns a pinkist color when left in the sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Hunter Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 True. Don't know the color of the end label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Plus the glue looks like it's affecting the color of the label. I've seen Actiplaque do this several times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Cade Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/AywAAOxyhXRTLhw8/$_57.JPG Here is a group of them, with one that pink color. Probably just a different run of the label fades differently, but who knows. Have to find an original "vivid" pink/red one to know for sure. The yellow is still fairly vivid and similar to the orange ones on the pink cart. EDIT: Here's another that's both red and orange, seemingly with a straight line dividing them. My bet is partial sun or light exposure for a very long time. http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/SpsAAMXQUmFSpnTX/$_57.JPG P.S. Maybe there is a red variation.

AAirhart Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I have a few like that also, pink label with an orange end label. I'd say fade from sun exposure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewheel Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 It's definitely fading. Either that or I'm rich with label variations. I've got nearly every Activision cart with that level of fading, to the point where it's almost like a new colour. Including some two-tones like someone posted above.

Rom Hunter Posted June 16, 2014 Author Share Posted June 16, 2014 Thanks! The picture with the two colors on the same label shows enough for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
