I've still got my Laser Attack board game from when I was a kid!
Nice finds there, especially that boxed Mattel Battlestar Galactica handheld and the Dark Tower.

Is the Laser Attack game any fun? Never played it.

Dark Tower should fetch between $200 and $400 depending on the condition and working order. Do you know if the tower works? Nice find.

It's complete, but I can't get the tower to work. It powers up but doesn't spin or make noise? I know someone still fixes these and I think you can locate them on Google. I have it listed on Vendazzle.com for $75 reserve :)
Another cool thing I discovered was an online version of Dark Tower :)

I don't recall much about it, so it couldn't have been too memorable. The central hub is a big plastic thing that locks into grooves near the center of the board, and it has what is essentially a flashlight in it, which you spin a knob on the top of it and the light shines out of little keyholes along rows leading out from it that the players have their pieces on. The pieces were these cool little clear colored plastic gemstone looking things that were stackable. Like I said, I don't recall much about the game, so it couldn't have been all that fun. The spinning flashlight thing was an interesting gimmick for a fairly standard board game.
