I already have 7 or 8 different flyers, so chances are I already have 'em. BUUTTT, if I don't.... I may just enter. :D Guess I'll wait for pics.

wait... they weren't printed on one of your dot matrix printers, were they? (; (couldn't resist)
No, but according to my father they are circa 1994-1999. Pretty tip top shape I might add.

No thanks. I know I have the booklet one, and I'm reasonably certain I have two flyers as well.

Post by: esteban on June 23, 2015, 12:22:48 PM: When I win the flyer, I will promptly scan it.

Or, I will convince the winner to scan it for me and nullity.

:)

Post by: sirhcman on June 23, 2015, 12:24:57 PM: I would like to join the raffle, I promise not to scan it or share. It will sit in my drawer for the foreseeable future until someone unearths it from my game room in 2085

Thanks!

I already have one of the flyers and the catalog. The catalog is already scanned and avaiable at... SPAMBOT BLEEP BLOOP:

http://DoxPhile/?action=magazines&magazine=7&issue=1 (http://doxphile/?action=magazines&magazine=7&issue=1)

if i win I'd only want the one flyer I don't have. I'd either kick bigus some change to ship the other stuff to #2 or re-raffle or something.

No promises on how quickly I'd get it scanned... I have quite a backlog of stuff...

(http://doxphile/random/magpile.jpg)

That sounds like a good plan to me. I don't have a real good scanner at home otherwise I would have scanned them myself. So I hope whoever wins these has a awesome scanner!

These things came from a time when TZD was honest and true. I am glad to have them and to have a small piece of something left from when TZD really meant something, before the Red Frog sellout. They really kept the light on for Turbo fans during the mid and late 90's. Sucks they went out the way they did, but thats life.

Indeed, did you get those today Professor? I'm amazed that the mice didn't get to them at my dad's house, unfortunately the turbo stick boxes weren't spared. :( Those looked literally like swiss cheese and definitely not raffle worthy.

Awesome, glad to hear it. If I come across anymore Turbo/PCE extras at my dad's house (non molested by mice) I'll be sure to post another raffle for them.
