Did I kill the thread or something? It was going gangbusters until now! sorry.gif

 

Any more requests? crazy.gif

 

Sometimes even the best of threads cool off, maybe if I posted some of my

Atari boxed collection it would raise people from the dead.

 

I got about 6 in the shrinkwrap and about 15 just in the box.

 

I even got the Atari Force comics in o.k. shape (in about FN condition)

they were readers mostly.

 

Wanna see 'em?

Bionic Commando was so cool,those metal arms shooting out and grabbing walls and stuff..................I also loved Dragon Warrior,and going way back to the Atari 2600 I got this cassette tape that you plugged into the Atari to play games with better graphics.................something with the mindmaster in its name.........and a great D&D game,forgot the name..............had to be 1982 or so..........does anyone know what i'm talking about?...........

Blues Bros and T&T are really tough to get, sealed, anyway. So unfortunately not yet. Solstice and Zombie Nation are easy, but I haven't bothered to this point. O for 4 893whatthe.gif

 

Give me a chance at redemption.. any others? smile.gif

Nice art on that warlords box thumbsup2.gif

 

Yea, guys used to joke me big time because I would hang that up in my cube at my old job

(it still has the hang tag on the back).

 

I told them it was a work of art and they could kiss off.

 

Seems like they just don't go into that detail for box covers anymore.

 

I also loved the round techno fonts they used on the packages

(that's that graphic design geek coming out of me, I guess)!

 

Rad baby! Rad!
