I have a boxed Vectrex that I bought from Hamleys (big
London toy-shop, in Regents Street) in 1984 for 50 quid.
I went down there on the back of a friend's motorbike, and
carried the Vectrex home the same way. Still works, and I
have the light pen and most of the games and overlays. I
know someone who has the 3D Imager, too!

I'm not
normally interested in games, but the Vectrex is one console I
spent real money on. Reason ? It's got the right CPU (68A09) and a vector
display. Vector displays are fun...
Bloody great machine and in good nick the screen is incredible.
Wish I had one boxed
:(
