SS Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Since we've managed to hijack a couple of threads recently, I thought it appropriate to start a new one instead. So what oddball picture label variants are you looking for? Outside of the few Sears titles that I've mentioned elsewhere, #1 with a bullet for me would have to be the 1986 re-release of "Black Jack".

sku_u Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Besides for These I'm also looking for Chuck Norris Xonox single ender and of course Sears Superman picture label. Those late releases are wacky, aren't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Yeah 86 seems to be the banner year for oddities. Grey Hangman was '86, The yellow Breakout was '86, some really oddball stuff came out during those years. Those Grey boxes, Flag Capture, Home Run, Basketball etc, were they '86 or '87, or both?

video game addict Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Is Fun with Numbers Pic label in a Grey box too? It's also a '86 release on database. With some of those in '87-88 there may be several variations available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Another of the '86 releases, PAL: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 I think I have Codebreaker in a grey box. Though I think it may be sealed, so I don't know if I've seen the cart inside. Superman had a pic label? Anyone can scan and post it or link it? Thanks. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shining slade Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 I'm looking for that Blackjack label as well as Codebreaker, Adventure, Hunt & Score, and a few others. Does anyone know of a late dated Superman cart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xot Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 That Blackjack label is pretty sweet. Just had to say it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangest Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 i have to say, i didn't think that the black jack cart would end up upstaging the silver gravitar i found with it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Posted September 2, 2004 Author Share Posted September 2, 2004 i have to say, i didn't think that the black jack cart would end up upstaging the silver gravitar i found with it... Silver "Graviatr". Boring. Kidding aside, silver "Gravitar"s show up on eBay not too infrequently. Since you posted about the "Black Jack", however, I have yet to find one in an eBay search. Not that I'm looking every day mind you but I bet I check for one almost once a week or so. This one is quite elusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph3 Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 I'm looking for an Activision's Bridge with the label variation which shows two player had instead of the normal one player hand. Jason @ Trade-N-Games just got one for his collection. I'm just a little jealous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

video game addict Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 So is Fun With Numbers a Grey box release too? Also isn't the Codebreaker artwork reversed on the late release? Is it the same for box, or only cart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shining slade Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 There are other Activision variations too. Barnstorming & Kaboom have both BW & color screenshot labels. Checkers has both a light blue and white checkerboard, Grand Prix has both a white & blue racing background. Are there any others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freeway has 2 variations: 1 with all red cars and a yellow chicken and 1 with different color cars and a yellow chicken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
