Does anyone know where to buy the repro Vectrex overlays. I have seen some pictures of some online. I know they are not as good as the originals. I purchased a 72 game Multi-cart and would love to buy some repro overlays. I have thought about buying some original sets on ebay and reselling the disks, but I would rather not seperate complete sets if I can buy Repro's
 
If you find a source, keep us posted! I would like to pick up a multi cart someday, but the lack of overlays is a deterrent for me...
 
There was a guy that was supposed to be reproing these a long time ago. I don't know if it ever happened, but even if it did they are no longer available and impossible to track down.
 
Darn wish I could find some. I need star castle, berzerk, armor attack, and scramble. I guess I will have to part some out off ebay:(
 
There is a group of guys working on this. I looked into it, but the overlays require a LOT of rework. A LOT. You need someone that knows adobe inside and out and cares about Vectrex to get it done. The group (in europe) is making progress and at some point you'll likely see them for sale. Check rec.games.vectrex or search for the yahoo group where they post updates.
 
Why buy the games just for the overlays and sell the rest? If you are buying them anyways keep them all together and have a collection. Vectrex boxes look really nice lined up on the shelf. Please don't put more overlay-less carts for sale out there just to have them for a multi-cart. Enjoy the originals.
