| Thanks Richard, ended up get a mold made! Milling machinery was not
cost effective, so now I should be able to produce as many as we need,
bigger orders attract a decrease in cost, or so I have been told, will
get some prices for you, will get in contact when have the cases
ready!!

Andrew, this couldn't come at a better time. I'm completely out of cases and
have folks waiting for VecFlash carts. I tried to get cases, but there is
none left and it looks like Sean won't have any more made until February
next year
Put me down for 100 to start with.
BTW how did you do them ?, with the milling machine or have you had a mould
made ?
Anyway, thanks a lot for doing this.

I don't have a delivery of them yet, so no pics, they are exactly the
same as your bog standard MB games cartridge!! Sorry for not being
original. I'm only taking orders and not money, so far 500 have been
ordered, and 300 have been set aside for purchasers. Like I say if you
need more info just send me a private mail, or converse thru the
mailbase. >> Stay informed about: Brand New Repro Cart Cases!! |

Thanks for the positive feedback Richard, I'm only down the road from
you so I may end up bringing my Vectrex and Atari 2600 to be modded
one day for various bits and pieces!! OK, when the mold is finally
produced it should be possible to have any colour you want but the
cases will be more expensive, again cost is dependent upon number
ordered and colour of the case, once again I can only say that I can
get prices for these if you have anything in mind. >> Stay informed about: Brand New Repro Cart Cases!! |

It's going to be great ordering them in the UK, and also not being dependant
on Sean getting around to having more made.
I know John will be pleased too, because Sean won't sell cases to him
(something to do with multicart competition).
BTW any chance of coloured cases in the future ?

>mind.
Well that's a lot better than the complete refusal we got from Sean.
I always fancied making some EPROM boards with LED's and putting them in
blue translucent cases. They'd look really good for an exclusive run of
games, especially if someone did a Tron remake (I can dream). Or, for a
special edition VecFlash at the CGE charity auction.
