SOLD: Full Atari Lynx pin collection

[Juan José Torres]

UPDATE: The collection is already sold.

 

 

 

I have found myself in the unexpected and extremely lucky circumstance of owning two full collections of official 'Defi Lynx' pins, so I have decided to sell one of them.

 

This is an extremely rare item, and here are the details:

 

• Included: all 35 pins of the French ‘Defi Lynx’ pin set (see post pictures).
• Not included: Lynx club pin. This pin was created by Atari Australia for their Lynx Club. As such, it does not belong to the 'Defi Lynx' pin set.

All pins in the set belong to the 'Defi Lynx' promotion run by Atari France in 1991.

 

'Defi Lynx' set consists of 35 different pins:

 

• A.P.B.
• Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure
• Block Out
• Blue Lightning
• California Games
• Checkered Flag
• Chip's Challenge
• Cyberball 2072
• Electrocop
• Gates of Zendocon
• Gauntlet: The Third Encounter
• Hard Drivin'
• Hockey
• Ishido: The Way of the Stones
• Klax
• Ms. Pac-Man
• NFL Football
• Ninja Gaiden
• Pac-Land
• Paperboy
• Rampage
• RoadBlasters
• Robo-Squash
• Rygar
• Scrapyard Dog
• Shanghai
• Slime World
• STUN Runner
• Turbo Sub
• Viking Child
• Vindicators
• Warbirds
• Xenophobe
• Zarlor Mercenary
• Lynx logo

 

 

 

 

 

If you want to try to get this set, rules are simple:

 

• I will answer offers in private only.
• Feel free to ask for further details about the set in this thread.
• Don’t ask me for loose pins. This is a full set and I am not breaking it up for any reason. Sorry.
• Be polite. If you are withdrawing from our conversation, please say so. Don’t leave me hanging, waiting for an answer to my last message. That’s very rude and I will not do business with you again if you do that.
• I’m not going to get mad if I feel your offer is way too low, I will simply let you know it’s not enough, so please feel free to send me any offers you have in mind.
• I’m taking money only. Don’t bother offering things in exchange unless you have something equally rare and Lynx related (we are talking *extremely* rare here). I’m not interested in any other console or computer when it comes to collecting, son don’t bother with that either.
• I'm in Madrid, Spain and will ship to Europe, US, Canada, Japan or Australia. Shipping fees will be on the buyer, though.

Good luck, everyone.

It's been two months since I announced that I had a full Defi Lynx pin collection for sale. Since then, some people have showed interest, but nobody has made a good enough offer, so I've decided to list the entire collection as a single item on eBay. The listing will be published some time this week and will be a fixed price sale, not an auction.

Took much longer than anticipated, but the pin collection is finally listed on eBay. Those interested can check it here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/254718049316
