Bigfoot and Atari Collecting

Well it was the rarest arcadia title....but with a couple popping up the last couple years i think it might not be the rarest anymore :)

it was the last undumped one until a couple years ago.

complete would be box, cart, only left overlay, english manual, italian manual.

as far as i know i have the only complete 1, but maybe yours is too...

was this on ebay? I think i bid on it....it came with the funky fish? Just those 2?

If this is that copy then i think this makes 6 boxes known.

Boxed copy owners:

-stupus (complete)

-stupus (2nd copy with box cover ripped off missing some parts)

-stefan p. (Missing 1 manual?)

-ianoid (Missing english manual?)

-captain-combat (complete?)

-unknown buyer of another ebay copy (complete?)

 

if anyone else has 1 i would love to know!

 

Edit:

after typing the above i found my previous list in another thread....i guess i did know about your copy and forgot :) getting old!!!

 

 

1. Jens Brinkman...loose cart for home arcade or advision home arcade?...origin unkown

2. Steve-vx...boxed copy missing English manual for leonardo....sold to blazing lazers on ebay 8/9/2017 then sold to ianoid privately soon after...origin unknown

3. Stupus...only known fully cib copy for leonardo...bought thru seller on eBay italy 5/7/2013

4. Steve-vx...boxed copy missing Italian manual for Leonardo....bought on ebay italy ~2014 then sold to captain-combat on ebay 8/19/2018

5. Ianoid....loose cart for Leonardo...bought in a eBay italy lot ~2015

6. Unknown buyer...loose cart for Leonardo sold on ebay Italy ~8/6/15

7. Unknown buyer...boxed copy missing Italian manual for leonardo...bought on eBay italy 8/26/2018

Added today 9-6-20:

8. Stupus....boxed copy with gatefold cover torn off and no other parts inuded for leonardo on ebay 9-10-19

9. Carlo Santagostino....loose cart for leonardo

10. Boxed copy for leonardo listed on ebay 12-10-2019....this might be another copy listed by steve-vx...not positive or if it sold or who bought it if so. This could likely be copy #7 relisted for sale by its winner.

 

So i think after updating today there are 10 copies. 5 boxed and 5 loose.....unless any if these are the same copy.

I believe mine is #7 in that other thread about 3D attack I bought it off eBay but it’s missing the French manual. Hope this helps 

Ok, so i wonder if #7 and your copy #4 are the same one.

Dates are close but i have the one on the 26th as being from italy and yours was from stefan in germany. Both seem to be missing the italian manual though too.

I cant seem to pull up any info niw on the #7 copy.

So this 1 could be listed twice.

Im going to leave it on for now since its date is later and its a different country. But i do think it could likely be the same as the 1 listed as #10 being resold.

I have also been chatting with some italian collectors today and it looks like from that info 2 more copies can be listed so far. I boxed and the other not sure.

I guess its definitely not a r10 anymore but definitely a very rare game with around a dozen copies now known. :)

 Where did you get that sign? That's awesome!

I asked the same question, I picked it up from a guy on the outskirts of Oklahoma City who got it in the 90’s in college. John a Brown a family owned defunct retailer had a huge Atari presence in their store so I suspect it may have come from there. I have never seen another one like it.

Good eye correct . I also have 2 cib cannon man in there somewhere along with a bunch of copies of other titles. 

Very nice.   I didn’t know anyone had 2 copies of the Superman.  If you ever want to move one of those Cannon Man or Math boxes I know I’m not alone in saying I would have an extreme interest.

I’ll keep you in mind, this sears collection I have is about a 15 year journey I could barely get it all into the kiosk

Some additional pictures of the Coleco Canadian version of donkey Kong. I have never seen the box before either. At some point I might give Indiana an exclusive of the holy of holies with the ? mark because it effects the history of what’s known for the 2600 third party. Also the ark is way too small to hold what i have but the symbolism is there.

And believe i have seen looping too.

 

I think they made these in a rush to comply with the canadian laws requiring bi lingual wording on products sold there.
