Title: Splatterhouse Shoelaces (orange)
Post by: SuperGrafx on December 02, 2015, 01:46:12 PM
Hey all,

I have a brand new pair (never worn) of those neon orange Splatterhouse TG-16 shoelaces
Not sure what these are worth, but I may consider parting with them.

Is there any interest for these?

Those are pretty awesome, you need like a classic pair of Converse Chuck Taylors to put them in ;)

Those look awesome. If I owned them I'd definitely put them on a pair of black Van knock off shoes.

scroll up, there is someone offering you $50 for these. If that's too low then do what I told you and grade them. You will get more than $50 on ebay for them if these were graded.

I think that was more of a sarcastic offer. 
I'm not going to grade these things.  Just figured I would offer them up for the community.

Are you two done gone work somethin' out?

I actually do want these, but honestly I can't see any reason to have them for myself. I'd realistically wear them maybe a few times a year, on special occasions or something. I'm sure there's someone more deserving out there, though.

Is there some backstory for these laces, like was this a promo thing for the Turbo release of the game?

Yep.  Electronics Boutique gave them out as a promo in the early 1990's. 
I grabbed them while picking up a value priced TG-16 game and forgot I had them until a recent move.  Still minty fresh and never worn!

Final bump.
Any takers?

What happened to HailingTheThings?  If that deal fell through, would you be willing to trade them for normal shoelaces?  I can trade you multiple sets of varying lengths.  It's pure profit.

Seriously if you don't want them give them away. You got them for free and if you liked them you would have worn them.

I don't have a cat, but I'd get one so he/she could play splatterhouse.

There never was a deal outside of what was publicly posted. I was toying with the idea, as I want them, but really, I don't have a use for them besides looking like an ass with bright orange shoelaces on a few special occasions.

Hey op, how about offering them up as a raffle, winner pays shipping? Everyone wins?

I totally can see myself getting choked out with those by a naked busty woman covered in chunky peanut butter and pepto bismol

I would use these to replace the skate laces holding my helmet together right now, I'd cut them up into 6" lengths and tie knots in them to bind together the dangler throat guard I wear. I recently put a splatterhouse sticker on there that Jibb hooked me up with, so these would pair nicely with that :P

all replies after mine were fail and mediocre. so it comes back to my answer. grade them and list them on ebay.

I want those shoelaces if nobody else wants them.

Sadly, they will be a prop in a video. That's the best use I could come up with.

I'll pay shipping.

Hey OP, I'll give you $25 if you ship them to estaban. Deal? Serious.
