jmetal88 Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Just out of curiosity, if you need to move your 5200 from one place to another, have you ever put it in some sort of carrying case? Is there some sort of padded bag or other type of carrying case that's a good fit for the 5200? I mean, the system is huge. I hadn't even thought of looking for something to carry it in until today. If I had a bag for my 5200, though, I could for sure fit any of my other systems in it without much of a problem (except maybe too much space). So, is anyone out there using anything as a 5200 carrying case, or is the system just getting moved as-is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

82atari5200 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 That is cool. I now need one for my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divya16 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 An official one exists. That looks like this car wash carrying case I have. I guess any carrying case should also have something to carry some sort of video demodulator for modern tv systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Cafeman Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 CPU - is that for real, or does your wink imply a clever forgery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 It's real. The box is from an old auction. I'm not sure where the pic of the case is from. My guess is another old auction. Allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phuzzed Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 An official one exists. Take a look at the guy in the picture carrying the case. He looks like he's getting a hernia from carrying the heavy 5200!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
