ATARIPITBULL Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) Now as far as I've been told, the Columbia house system never had its own box, it was shipped in a simple brown shipping box with the system covered in a plastic bag.

Omegamatrix Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Doug is in the one with the Sears collection to die for. I sold all of my boxed systems when I moved so sorry I can't help you Bruce. All I have is my boxed Funvision system and an Atar Jr. I found the other day in the garage (didn't even know I had it, lol). Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not seen that vader long box is that NTSC release? Also the silver late model slim line with nintendo like controllers is PAL right, I have one but did not include it. As I was trying to focus on NTSC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucebidder Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) Are any of these what your looking for? Nice pics thanks. Was the 4 switch sears released in any othe boxes I wonder. Was there another 6 switch Sears box released that didn't have the CX-10's on the front? Edited August 22, 2008 by brucebidder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the long silver box vader system is NTSC and yes the JR style silver boxed system with the joypad is PAL and yes it does come with the controller inside the box.

Was there another 6 switch Sears box released that didn't have the CX-10's on the front? I'm not sure if the 4 switch came in another style box but the 6 switch sears did come in a box that looked just like the 4 switch sears box you see here.

video game addict Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I believe Tony has mentioned before he has like 6 different Sears boxes. I have a small Silver box like the PAL one above in NTSC. No Pal controller on the box though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucebidder Posted August 24, 2008 Author Share Posted August 24, 2008 (edited) Alirght since I started this I should post some of my pics I suppose so here they are, all are NTSC except the silver 2600: Atari Heavy sixer: Sears Heavy Sixer: Atari sixer Factory Reconditioned: Atari Four Switch (SOmetimes called heavy 4 box): Atari 4 Switch Standard: Atari 4 Switch Standard not for resale: Atari 4 Switch Vader: Side view of all systems except Heavy four: Red Late release box and a Silver Pal Box: I will make another list including all the different systems once pics for all of them or at least most of them have been put up.

ATARIPITBULL Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Here is another one that I don't see in your collection. PS: I guess you don't want a picture of the Sears video arcade II system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omegamatrix Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I could post some pics of my Funvision system, but I don't know if you'd be interested Bruce. It is a pirate system like the Coleco Gemini, but unbelievably rare. Mine is NTSC and I only know of one other person possibly having one (NTSC).

Definitely through up the picks I am not against pirates as long as they are from back in the day... I'd love to see what it looks like....

Omegamatrix Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 After some searching I found an old post of mine with some pics. This all reminds me of another unfinished project. Maybe I can squeeze some time in this weekend before school starts. http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?s...t&p=1311733 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the 5th ghost Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 No one else has any pictures come on, 5th ghost I know you have a bunch of sears stuff.... Come on... I certainly do have a bunch of Sears stuff, but not much in the way of boxed systems. I have the boxed heavy and boxed light sixer. I don't have the boxed 4 switch or boxed Video Arcade II (ATARIPITBULL shows these) I've been trying to focus on the boxed Sears dedicated consoles lately, (like Pong, Speedway IV, Motocross Sports Center IV, etc.) I have a lot of those, but it sounded like you were just looking for pix of different VCS boxes. I guess you don't have a picture of the Sears light sixer, so I'll post one later. I also have a 1977 boxed Atari (with the chess piece) and a 4 switch woody variant not shown in the thread.

the 5th ghost Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Ok, here's pix of the 1977 heavy 6'er chess piece box, alternate 4 switch woody (picture label Combat) box, and light 6'er Sears box. I wasn't sure if you wanted to see the Sears "pong" collection but here's what I have at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
