+Lathe26 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Post pictures of your shipping boxes! For extra fun, look up the part number that was typically stamped or written on the outside of the box to know what game was shipping inside. Here are my 4 boxes: Coleco - blue box - Mouse Trap, part # 2479 Activision - black box - Pitfall, part # MP-002 Bandai - orange box - Tennis, part # 1814 (6765 and 3192J don't map to a game, maybe to the Japanese manual's part number?) Mattel - green box - Night Stalker, part # 5305 (the 3302 doesn't map to a game) All four boxes: Other sides that have have something interesting on them. The Coleco box is omitted since it is blank other the other 3 sides. Below are some of the cardboard manufacturing stamps. Interesting that Mattel choose a weaker rated box design.

+Lathe26 Posted December 30, 2017 Author Share Posted December 30, 2017 Shame! A pox upon me! I forgot to include one of my boxes in the original post (something was telling me that something was wrong, a splinter of the mind). Anyways, here the Intellivision Inc box, similar to m-crew's box. Mine shipped with 2 copies of Football for Intellivision (2610) and 4 copies of TRON Deadly Discs for Atari (5662). As expected, the Intellivision Inc box is slightly shorter than the Mattel box.
