Winner:23--BalloonFight
This is a pretty sweet little guy I've had for awhile now. It's a working calculator with an Ice Climbers theme and made to look like a famicom cartridge. I like it a lot, but I need to raise some funds, so it's up for grabs. It has sounds effects that can be turned on/off. There is one sound for most everything, and then one sound that I think happens only when the answer is 1984, haha. It's fun times. The labels have some scuffs/scratches but also still have a really great shine to them. The calculator display looks great. The "screen shot" inside is a glossy label that has some bubbling/bends that can be smoothed out for the most part. The blue main unit is in pretty great cosmetic shape overall (I don't see chips or cracks). I will include batteries (2xAAA) in the US, but not for Canada (sorry).

That would be amazing to find in the wild...I wish. I got it on eBay a long time ago because it caught my eye. It was a very gratifying impulse buy, and I'm happy to see there's so much interest in it from other people as well
Well, if anyone wants to retract their bid based on this revelation, you're totally welcome to as long as you do it publicly in this thread (that okay, mods?). My apologies for the oversight. Or maybe no one cares, haha.
^Oh...thank you for chiming in. I'm kind of bummed, but yeah I didn't see there's a 2005 date on this as well (very small, lower right corner in last picture below the 1984 date). I never noticed that. I guess I wanted it to be from the '80s.

Doh! I'm going to have to take you up on the bid retraction offer. It's still really cool, but I thought it was vintage as well.
