At least the new one to surface gives a view of the whole room.

Todd, did you buy these or does anyone know who the owner is?
I learned today that I missed out on these, I bought a lot of 11 other slides from the same seller recently, but would have bid on these too if I had known. Great items, thanks for sharing!

 

[tiefighterboy]

Nah..I stole the pictures from the auction.....Looks like Shawn picked up one of them....but not the showroom one.

 

[maniac79]

Thanks!

If the current owner reads this: If you're looking to sell these slides in the future, I am interested, please get in touch.

Looking at the completed listings I found 4 slides from the same seller that I have missed out on: The 2 show room slides, the one Shawn got and this one:

At least I want to try to get all together again.

Those photos are awesome, like a little SW museum.

 

[maniac79]

Still hoping to find out who was lucky enough who the lucky one is who got the 2 showroom slides.

 

[tiefighterboy]

They are awesome pictures for sure.

 

[maniac79]

Bumping again in hope to find out who bought these.

Another shot of the same room,, the six million dollar man Kenner range on the Right and the Star Wars range on the Left..... One of those "if only I had a time machine moments".. :roll: :roll:

And those cube's were tv's rolling the commercials and advertising for the available toys..

That's a crop of my slide.

First time I've seen this thread, thanks for the original posting, Todd- fascinating pictures 8)
Dennis, you've got a great personal collection of slides there, some truly iconic images. I hope you get to complete the set

Something else I've just noticed... Todd, isn't that the very same Kenner store display bell that you have in your collection? Above photo, middle left hand side.

Back to the Six Million Dollar Man side... I never knew Kenner produced a toy of 'The Probe', that scared the living daylights out of me as a kid (that and the Sasquatch). Good to see a suitcase sized Betamax top loading clunker just below the TV, too!

Great shots from Kenner HQ, a fascinating record of what went on behind the scenes 8)

Yes that is the same bell display. They were in-store displays.
