Your rarest games

[TK_Monkey]

Yeah PP's are notoriously flakey, which is why some other games ended up ultra rare, vendors got sick of fixing them and they either got converted or thrown out. Moppet games like Tug Boat had kind of an interesting and tragic story behind them, Chuck E Cheese used to own the bulk of them but when they were done they threw them in the dumpsters for tax purposes! The games totally sucked but what a waste!

Paging DirkDDS for his moppet list. He's got a bunch that are only one or only one of a couple known.

I've got 17 of those in my garage. That's the only one I've ever seen or probably ever will see.In fact I had never heard of the game until I saw your post.I don't think I'd want a game that's too rare as many parts would be basically impossible to find.

The rarest thing I think I have is an NOS, never used War of the Bugs PCB.

I don't have anything rare. Where do you guys find all this cool stuff?

 

[Robomayhem]

I have a working Thunder Jaws PCB and the marquee. It's a pretty easy game to finish...

My rarest game is Professor Pac. Its fully working, 100 percent complete and all original. Im willing to bet there are less than a dozen working ones left. I have a couple extra working boardsets for it. It took a long time and alot of searching to find the boards.
My next (somewhat) rare game is the dedicated JrPac...mappy cab style. For the small amount of these made there still seems to be alot of them around.
Everything else I have is mostly run of the mill stuff.

I have a Bromley Little Pro golfing machine from 1990. One of the few redemption games that gets a "pass" for being collectible. Maybe not super rare, but certainly don't see one every day.

Ouch. That has got to be the ugliest Star Castle bootleg ever.

I'd like to know what my rarest game is. Somebody look at my VAPS and tell me because I have no clue lol

At a glance I'd say Future Spy and especially Lock-On, I can't remember the last time I saw a LO come up for a reasonable price.

Two words - Ebay and VAPS, just keep your eyes peeled

I would say mine would be my 1976 "Datsun 280 Zzzap" by Midway. (very similar to Atari's Night Driver)
