Atari_Bill Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Looking back, I noticed it had been almost 10 years since I originally shared some pics from my collection. The room had always been in a state of flux with new stuff coming in all the time. After recently being pushed into retirement by my company, my buying is gonna be slowed way down. That gave me a chance to arrange and take some new pics. Here is some overview shots initially. I’ll add some detailed photos in the future pointing out some of my favorites. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari_Bill Posted November 18, 2020 Author Share Posted November 18, 2020 Here’s an oddball system that few have likely heard of. The Omni Entertainment System. It was a quiz based system released by Milton Bradley in 1980. It uses 8 track tapes for the different variety of quizzes. 12 tapes were released for it. They can all be seen here with the system. Only missing the box for one of them. It was an interesting attempt, but with the likes of Atari already out there, there couldn’t have been much of a chance for success. I’m assuming it’s pretty rare, but likely not all that pricey. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Captain_Combat Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Fabulous game room and collection congrats! I like the 2600 kiosk marquee over the lights really cool. Is your holy grail cubicolor or Sears Superman or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I think I was more excited with the Superman than anything else so I’d have to say that. I’ve had the Cubicolor since the 90s. I stumbled upon it in a trade paper. My other personal favorite pieces are the Sears Speedway II with the original sleeve (in the pic on the shelf behind the Superman), the white Astrocade, the Sears & Atari sticks with the hex discs, the Microsurgeon & Beauty & the Beast translucent displays, and the signed Nolan Bushnell Leaf Executive Collection 1 of 1 card.

+Captain_Combat Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I saw your speedway 2 and that’s a holy grail unto itself with maybe just a handful in existence. You don’t find very many Sears sealed games and the hangers on 99.99% of the gatefolds were probably torn off and trashed. I have one also. Is your Atari hex disc a reproduction looks pretty bright? You’re Sears one looks right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_Bill Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) To my knowledge it is real. I did buy it from someone, but examined it closely and up close it looks and feels real. I just took another look and I think the picture above just caught the light just right. Looking at it under normal light it looks the same as the Sears one.

Atarigirlwonder Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 (edited) I love the Pac man lights! Where did you get those? We are looking for something similar for our game room set up. We're okay not going the vintage or authentic route to the lights. There's a lot of creators out there that can make something beautiful and illuminous for sure.

I got those at Walmart back in the same area where the 1 up arcade machines are sold. Not sure if they’re still out there for purchase or not. They look nice with the back light. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari_Bill Posted February 26, 2022 Author Share Posted February 26, 2022 After recently doing a little more organizing, I was able to add a new display case. My dad built this for my mom’s doll collection. After she passed 2019 I definitely wanted to keep it. I haven’t put it to use till now for some of my better items. Here’s a couple pics. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
