What do you guys think, fake or not ?

If it's real, how much does it worth ?

Yep, that is the real deal. The labels do look like inkjet crap. Not sure what they are worth these days. Mine is still in a bag. Need to buy the box from that dude in the UK.

The part that made me questioning it is that part on the top of the label.

It's not like that in the atariage site.

Good 'ol B&C! :lol:

Top part just looks like it was cut off the sheet funkily as it looks to be the bottom most image of the label.

Its worth $45 dollars... if you look closely it says "b&c" on it , you can still buy them from myatari. Its the same as the ICD versions, just has a crappy label. "JAGUAR RULES!"

Here's an original from the mid 90's ;) Though there were 2 variations back then and this one is really rare.

Yeah, I saw the one in ebay today.

It's really really expensive! I'm just starting my atari jaguar collection so I won't bite the big fishes now.

By the way B&C has almost all the jaguar cd games for sale, are they a reprint ? Even they come with box and manual, they are pretty cheap.

Yes it's one of the B&C reproductions. You can find them for sale here:

Scroll down past the 'Special KA release" and you'll see this:

I believe that all of B&C's Jag CD games are originals.

Sure did. Gaztee makes some quality stuff. I just make overlays for different games here and there, I was just lucky enough to be in on the AIRCARS project ;)

And the original Air Cars came boxed anyway, with instruction manual behind the box within the shrinkwrap (and the overlay printed in the manual).

But sadly, no outer box, and no overlay (unless you wanted to cut apart your manual) :(

If the KA version is still available (hit up user BuddyBuddies here), I'd opt for that instead. Just my opinion as I haven't actually played it, but I used to have the original Aircars and it SUX! :lol:

Aircars KA looks to be much better graphically. There's a few different threads talking about it, but here's one that shows the enhanced console and graphics:

better yet buy my super rare original KA Aircars on ebay :P

Its the rarest Jaguar game by far that was released while Atari was still alive and is still one of the rarest Jag games, only about 5 original copies are known to exist. :)

buy my super rare proto catbox too! LMAO. :love:

I have a big sale on it. ;)
