RickR Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 "Vectrex Fans Unite" group on Facebook if anyone needs more help. Looks really cool and I think it comes with a pin this time. I'm thinking seriously about this one. sramirez2008 and DegasElite 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The controller works well. Btw, does anyone know if Robot Arena was ever finished? Edited August 31 by sramirez2008 DegasElite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No pin with my copy, but I purchased it used. Maybe the pins were “while supplies last” or the owner forgot/lost his pin. The picture on Facebook (for the new edition) shows a cut-out in the foam insert where the pin will be included. My foam insert doesn’t have a cut-out for the pin. <Edit> This thread doesn’t mention the pin. I assume this is the original run, not sure if there was more than one run. I thought it was only one.

TrekMD Posted September 1 Report Share Posted September 1 Interesting. I know I got it on the first run but I don't remember what "the terms" were for getting the pin. It's cool they are including them on this new batch. sramirez2008 1 Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sramirez2008 Posted September 3 Author Report Share Posted September 3 Looks like the pins were available for purchase in June, 2020. DegasElite and TrekMD 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sramirez2008 Posted September 8 Author Report Share Posted September 8 Update: I was able to connect with James G Watt and he had a Stramash Zone pin available for sale. I will also be receiving a 12v UV Light Frame. He was making these over a year ago and has recently started making them again.

TrekMD Posted Thursday at 11:30 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 11:30 PM Steve, what's different about this frame? It's not UV? Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a 12v vs 10.5v. and 24 LEDs vs 20. Overall, the build quality is a tad higher. I had this on order for over a year and had purchased a power supply and dimmer switch for it. Life happened so James stopped making his frames and in the meantime I purchased the 10.5v frames. Here’s his website: http://www.clockworkrobot.com/ This will be my daily driver for UV frames.

TrekMD Posted Friday at 02:17 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 02:17 AM Cool. I have one of the UV frames, so I was wondering what was different with this one. Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
