How many of you are label variation collectors?

[shining slade]

I started to, guess I still am. I wanted to know if any of you were nuts like me Example: I have 3 Raiders of the Lost Ark carts with end labels that have different fonts.

I collect label variants. In fact, I just found another 'Space Invaders' variant I didn't have...and I finally found 'Gunslinger' with a picture label.

 

I still can't find the "Raiders Lost Ark" variant though.

I collect label variations, although not as actively as I was a few months ago.

[Tempest]

Well I used to maintain the Giant List of Label Variations. What does that tell you?

I do look for label variations if the opportunity comes up, but I'm not hardcore about it just yet.

being I dont collect game boxes.. I collect variants.. even slight ones in some cases if its interesting..

I collect major label variations, such as the various styles Atari produced over the years (the original numbered titles, normal text titles, picture labels, silver labels, red, etc.), as well as major variations that other vendors have, such as the blue Activision labels. I will also try to get my hands on variations that are unusual, such as "PLOE POSITION" and items like that.

 

There was a time when I was collecting every tiny little label variation, but at some point I decided it wasn't worth it (to me) and removed all those minor versions from my collection. It's much more manageable now.

I collect like Al. I like to have major label variants because they look different from far away and to me have added extra fun to collecting.

I'm a label nut, I look for imperfections, bad spelling and even dates! I can confirm there is a PAL Pole Postn

[Spirantho]

I can confirm there is a PAL Pole Postn

 

Ah, so there is... I wondered if there was as I've seen one on eBay but figured it was NTSC.

 

I don't collect variations actively apart from major variants (text label/picture label).

 

However, I still claim to be the only person with a PAL Text-with-number label, Basic Math 61.

I don't collect label variations. So far, I only collect manufacturer variations. In case that completely dries up, I may consider doing major box variations within one company (e.g. Atari color, silver, red box).
