Today's Finds

[JustCruisin]

I hit up an antique store today about 45 minute drive from me, it always (usually) has at least one Blaster for sale.. Didnt see any at first, but as I was about to walk out I spotted a grey square shape behind a big picture frame..it was a Montgomery Ward tv box for 15 bucks!
As I took it up to the register to test it out and pay, I spotted a Power Glove in a pile of parts!
I've wanted one since I was a kid! Anyways, struck a deal and left a happy camper..

Forgive my ignorance, but what can you do with a Power Glove ? Looks insanely cool

It's a controller for the original Nintendo Entertainment System, I have yet to try it out..
The square tripods are the sensors..

Those are cool! Nice finds.

Good for you, the box was such a good price too so "Well done!"

Nice, the box looks nice but the glove looks cool as hell!

Luke Skywalker's hand? .....or his Pappy's?

SuperCool!! StarWars are back..
Do you still have Nintendo itself to connect this Glove to?

I do still have NES, but I think the only game I have is Super Mario Bros.
I'll give it a try this weekend..
Meanwhile, this box is already getting disassembled! All of the front plates pop off, and back casing came off easily..
I think I will custom paint it and give it to one of my sisters for Christmas..
Everything about this box screams 3-piecer, just like the GE/Sears/Realistic 3-piece boxes the same size..
But, this is a 1-piece and its so darn flat.. It's just begging for some graphics!

Digging the TV Radio!

Power Glove!!!! You mind me asking how much you scored that bad boy for? Chris is right, those go for more than most would think. Not a fortune, but more than I carry in my wallet.

Wait... I don't have any money in my wallet. Dang.
