King Atari Posted April 7, 2002 Share Posted April 7, 2002 *Slowly King Atari wishes he had a copy* Wow, I've never seen such a cart. Rarity? Just taking guesses here, but I'm thinking it's a 5 or a 6. Maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted April 8, 2002 Author Share Posted April 8, 2002 Thanks to David H., we've added Sears Gunslinger picture label to our database. We didn't even have this one listed before, and it's not on the Giant List of Label Variations (hi Matt!). So, how many of you have one of these? What do you think of the rarity?

dwh Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Glad I could help out,it was just luck finding this Sears picture label cart.Got this one back in the middle of Feb. off of ebay for $4.90.Did not realize what I had until I was updating my Cart Commander files--getting the rarity numbers from Atari Age.Unfortunately the endlabel is torn,so there is no picture of it at the link above.Since these Sears picture label carts are tough to find, I would give them at least a five on the rarity.

CincYnoTi Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 My copy of Gunslinger has a damaged end label also. Found it at a flea market. I searched ebay for over a year to replace it with one with a better label. Three Quadrun can show up in one week and it took over a year to find a Gunslinger picture label ! Well, eventually, I'll put the second one on ebay. I'm curious how many other collectors have this picture label version. For as long as it took to "discover" this, my guess is that it is at least as rare as Sears picture Canyon Bomber and Night Driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggger2 Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Finding a previously unreported Sears picture label is exciting. I wonder if the publicity of this finding will result in someone producing the rumored but undocumented Sears Superman picture label. I hope so.

Tempest Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 I was just thinking about that. It might actaully exist after all. BTW, who had that picture label Tank Plus cart? I want to give credit on my list. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Oh is that rare or something? Because that's the cart I got. Sorry I don't keep track of rarities or 'label variations' and stuff like that. All I have are the cartridges I bought as a kid. But anyway I couldn't have scanned it anyhow since all my collection is back at home in a box. But yep, I definitely have that Sears Gunslinger. I used to think all my Sears cartridges were crap because they had the corny artwork and had different names from the original ones I'd see in catalogs etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godsey1 Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 For some reason I like the Sears carts better also. Here's what I have: Boxed and Gatefold: CHASE MATH RACE TANK PLUS TARGET FUN SPEEDWAY II Boxed (regular) StarRaiders(all 3Boxes) Night Driver Pac-Man Stellar Track Target Fun Yars' Revenge Asteroids Gun Slinger Missile Command Maze Breakaway IV Loose carts efender, Blackjack, Circus, Cannon Man, Pong Sports, Golf, Demons to Diamonds, Space Invaders, Submarine Commander, and Berzerk. I also have a boxed 6 switch Sears system. Out of all of these games, the Star Raiders game was the hardest to find with all the boxes(I have a second one comming). I have no idea why I am into Sears so much!!!!!!!!!! Tony [ 04-10-2002: Message edited by: godsey1 ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Yeah but when you're a kid (remember this is the 70's). You feel kind of ripped off holding a copy of fruity-sounding "Target Fun" when all the catalogs you see say "Air Sea Battle" Actually I think I said something about this before as it's pretty funny actually. But when I was a kid I swear to god I thought the Sears brand was some cheapo bootleg and felt shafted by my mom who bought me all those Sears brand carts. I was like.. "eh? this is not Atari!!.wtf!?" LOL Of course luckily I still have them all and my outlook on them has changed obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariman Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 hmm... I wonder if I have that cartridge... I'll have to check. [ 04-10-2002: Message edited by: atariman ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
