Christophero Sly Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 (edited) I can see the T-handle... now. I saw that auction and totally whiffed on it. Looks like an Ultravision game. I can't make out which one though. Very nice score whatever it is! Edited August 22, 2005 by Christophero Sly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted August 22, 2005 Author Share Posted August 22, 2005 There aren't that many it could be, but I could tell which one it was, here's a larger picture: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maibock Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 wow, nice find - took me awhile to see it, but there it is.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted August 22, 2005 Author Share Posted August 22, 2005 It gets better!! OKAY I thought the above was really the rarest cart in the lot, but I was mistaken! I scored an Atlantis II in the bunch! :o There were two Night scene carts in the lot, I just recieved it this morning, so I'm just going thru all of them, but the first one I noticed had a stamped name on the front, I popped it in same time as Condor Attack to test, but hadn't pulled all the others out at the time, until just now. I saw another night scene cart & it had a printed label on the back side of it, popped it in & sure enough it is the the same score font as Atlantis II in the database here! I will show some actual screen pics when I can, but my camera is completely dead right now & I have not seen my charger since I moved. For now, heres the two Atlantis carts I received one of the front regular & one of the back of the A2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

video game addict Posted August 22, 2005 Author Share Posted August 22, 2005 I think this is the sticker off the box applied to the back of the cart, & the original owner just wrote his name on it. I don't know why I didn't think of that at first, but Atlantis II is typed, and the size looks about right for the sticker that covers the box. I'm more than a little bit excited right now if you can tell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Helmet Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 (edited) Holy crap! A rarity 10! How many copies of Atlantis 2 have been found? Edited August 22, 2005 by Lord Helmet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omegamatrix Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 (edited) How many copies of Atlantis 2 have been found? 916276[/snapback] Yes, I'm wondering that too. Does anyone know how many people got carts to begin with? Was this contest only for people in the USA? Does anyone have a manual or contest info book they could scan? Edit: Never mind the scan I found it here. Edited August 22, 2005 by Omegamatrix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerG Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Atlantis II is rarer than I thought - congrats. again! So when you saw the sticker, did you realize what you had found? I wonder how many carts Imagic made for the contest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

video game addict Posted August 22, 2005 Author Share Posted August 22, 2005 OMG you should contact that seller and told him what he sold you....he will flip out big time Congrat. 916330[/snapback] I did lol, hopfully he won't fly down here & beat me up over it! I just sent him a finder's fee thru paypal, so I ended up spending a little more than $11 on the lot. still no where close to the price these two would fetch if they were listed properly. I'm just having a hard time believing I would score an Atlantis II mixed in a cheapie lot, much less that I got it with the Condor Attack! I thought for sure, someone else would have spoted that cart in there! My snipe was a good bit higher, but I figured if it went quitely & unnoticed, I wouldn't even ask about the Condor in the lot, I only asked specifically if all the carts pictured were included. I figured if it when higher, and I still won it, I would confess I was bidding for the T handle. But damn if that didn't get out shadowed by an even rarer cart! I love ebay!
