TRONMAN! Update

[neotokeo2001]

The assembly of the TRONMAN! carts are complete and they are on the way to me. It will take me a day or so to do some final work on the box and then ship them out to everyone. It looks like they will be shipping on Friday. Thanks to everyone who made it possible to make these carts. I will e-mail everyone when the carts ship.

 

A little trivia on the TRONMAN! project:

 

30 carts were produced

 

Carts are being sent to 8 different countries:

USA

Canada

Mexico

England

Spain

Germany

Holland

Brazil

Good to hear, I'm looking forward to playing it. Thanks for the update!

I cannot wait for this cart as well.

Now I just need to get my hands on an official Tron joystick to make the experience complete!

[Lord Helmet]

Kickass. This cart is another example of why I love this community! Can't wait to play the game!

keilbaca is getting me a console and lots of goodies to go with it...and, assuming I get it all in time, I'll take it with me to Linucon 2.0 in Austin next weekend. I'm looking forward to seeing it all.

A Celebrity in our midst! *giggle*

Glad you were also in cluded in the fun.

 

Welcome to AA indeed!

Hope you have a pleasant stay and enjoy the ride.

 

Keilbaca is a great guy, and if I know him you'll be getting lots of goodies indeed. Now all he has to do is get an av and battery powered 7800 working.

Very very neat indeed! What a piece of history, infamous or not.

Can't wait!

I can't wait to get this cart, especially with the blue glow effect which you get with the arcade.

Hehe, I'm running out of goodies being that I am also getting my good friend from home a starter set (he also ordered Tronman, I told him about it and he loved it). I'll see what I can do though

[jmaynard]

Just in case anyone missed it in the other thread I jumped into...

 

If you'd like me to autograph your cart (or box, or book, or all three), you can send it to me, with return postage, and I'll be happy to. Drop me a PM if you're interested.

[jmaynard]

Mine arrived today. I'm really happy with the way it turned out.

 

There's a package waiting at the post office for me, and I think it's the 2600 from keilbaca. Hopefully, I'll get to try it out this evening.

[Lord Helmet]

Sweet! Hope mine comes today as well!

[Atari Charles]

I too am looking forward to it!

[moycon]

I got mine!!

WOOOOOOO!!!

Thanks to all who made this cart possible.

[keilbaca]

I didn't get mine yet. Hopefully tomorrow.

[video game addict]

Welcome aboard Tron guy!

[Lord Helmet]

I didn't get mine yet. Hopefully tomorrow.

Me neither...which means I should have a surprise waiting for me today

[Gateway]

Got mine and tried it out last night!

 

Very nice craftsmanship on the game, case, etc! Kudos to all involved.

[neotokeo2001]

Just to let everyone know, TRONMAN! shipped in three batches with the last batch being sent yesterday(Monday).

 

I could not use the foam insert that I wanted so I had to do a last minute solution with the white foam. The next game will have a much nicer insert.

[keilbaca]

Still no game yet, I bet mine is in the Monday shipment. Which means I should get it tomorrow

[jmaynard]

I finally got a chance to hook everything up and try it last night. keilbaca did a nice job on getting it all working for me, and the cart itself is great. Of course, I suck at it, but then, I knew that was how it was going to be...

 

Thanks to everyone who's made this happen.

 

If you're in Austin this weekend, come to Linucon 2.0, at the Ambassador Hotel at I-35 and 183. It's a fun con, and I'll be there with a new costume. So will my new 2600 with TRONMAN cart.

[Lord Helmet]

Still no cart. guess I'm un the same boat as keilbaca

I live in Austin, I may have to check this out! I just took a look at the webpage, thanks for the link--I somehow missed this last year. I made the Tronman carts, and it would be cool to meet you and see the game running at the show. And you have me curious as to what your new custom is!

Got mine last night. I love it!
