Hi my friends,

I am pretty excited because finally I could add to my collections the Nintendo Entertainment System optic fiber sign. When I was a kid and go to retail stores this sign was just AMAZING!!

This is a long story...

When I first found this sign was in an electronic repair shop (almost 6 years ago), in that moment the dependent doesn´t want to sell and after I insist he say "Ok 1000 USD"... I walk out... :(

Today I was on shopping with my girlfriend (near the repair shop) and I remember the sign, so I try one more time... This time the guy remember me and say ok "200 USD"... So I buy It!!

Is pretty dusty, but is in really good condition, I open it and the bulbs are missing, but the mechanic mechanism is working.

My friends I would like to ask someone help me with bulbs, what are the specifications of it.

Regards and thanks!

$200 is a decent amount for its condition - you could probably turn it around for some profit online. :)

Always thought those signs were killer. Totally mesmerizing.

Have you opened it up yet? It's likely just an incandescent bulb with a rotating color/cutoff wheel.
