JayAre Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) Most of you have probably seen the series of lenticular stickers that Atari produced, circa 1983. Stickers were made for Pac-Man, Defender, E.T., Demons to Diamonds and Centipede. I believe this is the entire series, as I've never seen stickers for any other games. The Demons to Diamonds and Centipede stickers are somewhat scarce, with the others being easier to find. When the sticker is viewed from different angles, the sticker image appears to move. For Pac-Man, three different versions of the sticker were made. One is 2" in diameter, while all the other stickers in the series are 2.25". And the other two Pac-Man stickers vary slightly from each other in terms of the trademark/copyright text. I'm not sure how these were sold/distributed in the U.S. But I did find an AtariNews newsletter from Spain from Christmas 1983 which mentions the stickers. It appears to indicate that, if you purchased certain Atari-themed school notebooks, you would receive a free sticker. I'm attaching pics of the stickers as well as the newsletter. Well, since I didn't see a thread on this topic, I decided to create one, in case someone's interested in the information.

+cvga Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 That's really cool. I've seen Pacman and Defender but not the others. Thanks for sharing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayAre Posted April 22, 2020 Author Share Posted April 22, 2020 You're welcome, CVGA. I get the feeling that, in the U.S., these stickers weren't sold in stores. I'm guessing that they were promotional give-aways. Maybe similar to the way they were distributed in Spain, as per my original post. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayAre Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 Just picked up this lenticular sticker. I don't think it's from the series of stickers in this thread, but it's an interesting item, nonetheless. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
