If you look at the map, you'll notice that there's a bat, a rat, and what appear to be some condors. Doesn't that sound familiar? All three of those creatures would later appear in Pitfall II. But Pitfall II was still more than a year away. Coincidence? Probably a coincidence since there are also monkeys and tigers. If the tiger would have been a mountain lion (Quickclaw), then I'd be suspicious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, for the longest time, I thought this was for Stampede. Until I realized it was for Happy Trails on the Intellivision. Still cool though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I was thinking it was for Stampede also until I took the picture and then I remembered and was "Oh yeah, that's for Happy Trails" lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayAre Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Well, I'm pretty much done posting Activision promo items from my collection. If I ever acquire any more, I'll be sure to update the thread. I took one last look online and found these two items. Thanks once again to everyone who has contributed/commented to this thread; it's been wonderful seeing all these incredible items.

Rom Hunter Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) On 8/16/2020 at 3:07 PM, JayAre said: This one looks to be pretty rare. It's a Chopper Command promo cap. It looks like a French foreign legion hat, with the flaps on the back. I can't find any pictures of it online. But I did spot it on two occasions in the pictures that I have of the Activision Family Vacation to Maui. In the first picture below, you'll see Dan Kitchen wearing one; and in the second picture, there's someone on the left side of the pic with one as well. Hopefully, a better picture of it will surface at some point. Same goes for this StarMaster shirt: Edited August 17, 2020 by Rom Hunter 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayAre Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Some of you may remember this post from a few weeks ago, in a different thread. I hadn't thought of this until now, but I guess the "Activision Cup" trophy seen in the picture can be considered a promotional item, right? Kind of, I guess. Well, here's an article which talks about Activision's ICE HOCKEY video game contest, along with a pic of Bryan Trottier during the contest. Participants had to be 15 or under. Mr. Leibowitz, if you're reading this, and you still have the trophy on your mantel, please post some pictures of it.

JayAre Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 A little off topic, but anyone ever notice the Activision promo item that can be seen in this picture of Dan Kitchen from the Crackpots manual? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not off topic. Looks like a cool Stampede belt buckle. All the cool kids had them! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
