Merchandise & Marketing Materials
« on: May 10, 2010, 12:31:11 PM »
I would like to see what types of unusual marketing/merchandise items people have in their collections.

Here is a link to some of the more uncommon items I have in my collection

http://s1032.photobucket.com/albums/a409/henrycsc70/Turbo%20Grafx%20Merchandise/

The TV Sports Football T-shirt is a recent purchase
The hard cases for the express and the duo games were bought through either TTI or TZD in the early 90s, can't remember which one
The Stack Rack was bought from Toys R Us when they still carred the Turbo Grafx
Wanted:
Bootleg Hucards (Hong Kong, China)
Third Party Hardware (US, Japan, China, Europe, Korea)
Canadian Boxes and Manuals (French text)
Ton's of Trades available - just PM me.

Look how the sides of the duffel bag are bulging.  It's clearly full of win.  8)

Your gear is awesome hoobs88.  I've been wanting one of those wallets forever!  It's cool that some people actually have some of the items that were in the catalogs (for the longest time I thought the items were a myth.)

Now how do I get my hands on a lime green wristwatch?

I think those are the original T-shirts sold out of the booklet that came with the TG16.

yeah, the Turbo Gear catalog is where the TV Sports Football shirt came from... I updated and added a few more pics including the label that TTI used for mailing stuff.  Bummer that they placed their return label right over Bonk... You can still see through it though.
