Other Vintage Collections

Just took a photo of my American NTSC SNES collection so thought I'd share it here. All new/sealed. Of course I have one in the living room to play too

Absolutely superb Edd. I've never seen that cleaning kit before.
I always thought it was strange though that the Americans decided to change the case from the sexy super famicon lines

 

[edd_jedi]

Yeah it's very unusual in that sense, not many consoles had a country specific design. I believe it was changed because they thought the Jap/PAL one looked too kiddy. For the same reason American games usually have more adult case designs.

Seeing all of these consoles is great, 8) I remember having to buy them as they came out for my son, from Spectrum plus 3 through ( with built in tape) to Master system, mega drive, Nes ,SNES and on and on...

Picked up this recently but think the insert is incorrect, but the Aston is in great nick and fully functional, has the little man that ejects as well.
Remember having this as a kid

Love seeing all the box fresh SNES goodies Ed and I've always been a big fan of the James Bond Aston Mike. I've thought of picking one of these cars up for years now and did get the juniors version of it recently when it was rereleased for the JB anniversary. One day I'll get one to go with my Corgi Batmobile.

As said this really is a highlight thread for4 me also.

This is my latest edition, something I've wanted since 1999.

I'm more than a little jealous of that, best console I ever owned and should never have traded it in

Here's another one from my loft.
Haven't tried him to see if he still works.

Forgot to say that I live the Spiderman, I've never seen one of these working but it's great that you kept hold of the box, really nice!

My old school mate had a famicom in the late 80s. It came into his dad's tv shop. I remember him talking about a game that was like Friday the 13th with Jason in. Anyone know it?

 

[Clarkspie&chips]

Here you go. It's pretty famous for being rubbish!

John and Ponch from CHIPS.
Over the years, the discolouring of the faces has made them look weird.
I've got the helmets in another box somewhere.

Always dislike looking through this thread. As if trying not blow what little money I have on vintage SW, I see tons of new temptation on here. We'll done folks, some real memories popping up.

 

[spoons]

Adding a bit of diversity to the Kaybee stuff now

Can anyone help with identifying this childhood toy of mine no markings on it at all and never see another one before love to know more about it and any possible line of toys ???? but without a name you just can't find anything out. Think it used to have extra bits on the arms, even taken it apart and no markings or make inside. Hope nobody minds it posted here but this area gets the most eyes on. Thanks for any advice, I've had it since I'm sure the late 70's.

 

[Michael Sith]

I bought this as it was a precursor to the He Man Range, is complete and unused ( ship is taped into the box interior still.

I havnt got a clue on its value, but I have decided that I'm not going down the Blackstar Route :roll:

Has anyone any ideas on where I should go with this, ebay or are there any collectors on here with ideas

Thanks in advance for any help
