I have had these in my collection for a while now and have not found out much infromation about it. One website said the entire stock was destroyed in a tornado years ago. Can anyone help me out and what do you think it would be worth.







NOT FOR SALE!!

They weren't destroyed by a tornado, but the roof of the warehouse in Lancaster, TX was partially mangled and they sold off a lot of their damaged product locally for cheap. I've got one. It's essentially a clone of the Colecovision. It's a nice little unit, although the RF signal isn't very good at all, and the controllers don't have the numeric pad (both controllers have to use the pad on the console) making things difficult. But still, it's a nice little collectible, and it has two built-in games that I believe were only released overseas. The front slot plays Colecovision games, and the back slot plays Sega SG-1000 cartridges. Since Sega never released that console over here, there's no mention of that cart slot's use anywhere on the console or in the paperwork.

There was someone on here just recently looking to find a machine that could play Sega SG-1000 games. Maybe the two of you could come to an agreement.

i found a couple of them around here in Burleson Also at Goodwill about a year ago, bad thing is they were all new in the box but no ac adapters. I think quite a few didn't have the ac adapters, they have weird requirements too.

It is a tough to find system though outside of the metroplex here. I sold them for $60 or so each if i remember, i didn't want them since they didn't have ac adapters

AC adaptor was actually in a different box. It is the coloeco cord with a different end on it.

Thanks for all the info everyone, going to keep it in the collection but will probably never use it.
