    You guys are cracking me up!  😆  Of course, I posted that on purpose to twist you arms to the point of breaking so you'd order these!  🤣
    I also do have the classic Galactica and the modern Pegasus and a couple of others...

    Had not added these here.  These are battery operated, they are made of metal and they light up, have sounds, etc.  Really cool items.

    That box looks fantastic!  I'm sure I'll see you there, Steve.  Are you staying at the Courtyard again?  I'm staying there this time around.  Of all the nearby hotels, I think that's the best one.

    OK, just finished watching the video.  It was nicely done and it covers all the titles fairly quickly but with enough about each one to get a sense of the games. 
    I've had a Lynx since the model 2 was launched.  I bought it in KayBee Toys.  Remember them?!  I still have the original box and I think it even has the price tag on it.  I decided to get as many games as I could for it.  My cousins had a GameBoy and they envied the color screen on my Lynx.  Over the years I managed to get all the official release games for the Lynx and I've also collected many of the homebrews.  The one release I'm missing is P.I.T.S. Driving School which was used in Germany for teaching people how to drive. 
    I have to Lynx units, both model 2.  I've never used a model 1 but I've seen it at conventions.  I did upgrade the screen one of my units to a modern LCD and it gave the system a new life.  It is night and day when compared to the original screen.  The only games that doesn't look as good, or at least its title screen, is the homebrew Alpine Games because that was one programmed to take advantage of the limitations of the original LCD screen when it was displayed.  It doesn't look as nice with a modern screen.  The game itself, however, looks great. 
    I have several cases for the Lynx and for the games, both official and unofficial.  I also have prototype games and early homebrew releases that were made using PCB cards with no labels.  I decided to create labels for all those titles.  If you want to see the, just check out this thread at RVG:  TrekMD's Collection.  The Lynx is on Page 1 of the thread, below all the 2600 stuff. 
    Now, one thing I've never been able to do is use the Lynx with the ComLynx cable!  I'd love to try out Gauntlet with more players! 
    Well, @MaximumRD, hope that gives you a bit of sense about my experience with the Lynx.  🙂

    It's pretty good.  I just ordered The Atari 2600 Homebrew Companion: Volume 5 Deluxe Edition.  I was not aware of this volume until I watched the interview GRay Defender posted.
