That's NICE! It won't be around for long!

It's mine! My first Intellivision anything. Now too bad I'll be in California for the next month and won't get to play it. Is the sears version harder to find just like the sears version of the 2600?

I don't think the Sears version is that much rarer, although it shows up a little less on eBay. There isn't a huge market for Intv consoles out there to make anything to rare. Looks like a great lot, you can't go wrong with Astrosmash, Beauty & The Beast, and Burgertime, all-time classics.

Awesome deal! The Sears console has detachable controllers so you picked a good choice for your first Intellivision. And is that a boxed He-Man in there? Nice!

Good deal, man. I've got a decent game collection, but I've always wanted the Sears version of the console.

The first one that I got was a Sears that I found at Goodwill a couple of months ago. I plugged it in, the title screens came up when I plugged in the games but nada as far as getting them to start as there seemed to be some disconnect between the controllers and the unit. I'm working on trying to find someone to fix it but I was told that they have some weird wiring that can cause that problem if the sound chip goes bad. I finally just picked up another INTV that did work so that I could play my games. Next project is installing these "Stickler" joysticks that replace the touchpads......INTV is fun. It's totally different than Atari!

Good lord ... I didn't realize the Sears unit was so ... ugly.

 

All the same, damn good deal on that one -- everything's boxed. Good score. Was that Sears unit a clone of the model 1 or 2? It bears a stronger resemblance to model 2, particularily considering the detatchable joysticks.

It is like a mix of both-

Woodgrain on front from Intv1

Detachable controllers from Intv2

Off white on top and controllers.

Controllers slide out from the front, unlike either.
