I have a couple of these that came in a box-lot I bought. I've never seen them before either. My 2-yr old likes playing with it (perfect size!) :D

As far as the value...I believe they are worth about $10 and would rate them as being very rare but not extremely rare about a 6/10.

I do not believe the Amiga Power Stick is all that rare. I have several of them myself and I didn't go out of my way to acquire them. I know Alex also has (or had) some as well. Certainly there are rarer controllers out there.

 

You got a great deal on the system, games and controllers, congrats! :)

I had two of the Amiga Power Sticks back in the early '80's. They are very small compared to other Atari controllers. I do like the buttons--they have almost no resistance when you press them and are great for rapid-fire games. The stick is lousy for diagonal directions and they are not very durable. Both seemed to wear out quickly but their small size could have been a factor.

 

Also, these were later manufactured for the Amiga computers.
