Title: What did YOU do with your TurboGrafx-16 stickers?
Post by: Joe Redifer on October 11, 2007, 06:12:04 PM
Well? We all got TurboGrafx-16 stickers when we bought our TurboGrafx-16 Entertainment Supersystems. What did you do with yours? Put them on your car? Put them on your favorite notebook in school? Put them on the tank of your toilet? Put them on your laptop? Put them on your TV screen? Put them on your forehead?

Ha ha! Nope, these are real, NEC-sanctioned TurboGrafx-16 stickers.

Nice. I wonder how much they're worth on the 'Bay??
Title: Re: What did YOU do with your TurboGrafx-16 stickers?
Post by: Joe Redifer on October 11, 2007, 08:40:48 PM
Possibly up to 23 cents! :D
To be honest, I don't remember if they came with the TurboGrafx itself or the CD-ROM add on. It was one of the two.

I got a brand new TG-16 in 1990. I don't remember getting any sticker with it.
I have not, however, ever owned a "brand new" TG-CD so my guess is that they came with that package.

Yeah, it must have came with the CD attachment or something. I didn't get that sticker, which is totally awesome rad knarly sick dude. 8)
It's hard to say what I would have done with it. I would've either done something stupid like stick it on my friends Genesis, or I would have kept it in a drawer. But probably the former. :P

I always stuck stickers like that to the side of my TV.
I still have the sheet of Impossamole stickers that came in the box.

I got the TurboGrafx and the CD-ROM on the same exact day, that's probably why it's a blur to me.
Anyway I want to put them all over the place, but at the same time I don't.

Then you probably won't believe this, either: My CD-ROM attachment came with a friggin' carrying case!

Very cool Joe, don't stick them on anything!
on a related topic:
back in 1994, this over the phone video game shop called Gadgets & Games had these Turbo Duo carrying cases. They were just CD carrying cases with the DUO symbol stuck on the side. I wish I still had that.... It was pretty jawesome!
I lost it back when I was a dumb kid, had no idea that these things would be worth REAL money..........

I purchased the turbo grafx and the CD add on back in 90/91, i had that sticker but i don't remember which system it came with either but where it ended up was on top of the turbo CD carry case.

Post by: guyjin on October 12, 2007, 11:19:04 AM
I've seen the carrying case, in person. It was one of the few TG16 artifacts I've seen in a local game store that I didn't already have.

I never got stickers with my Tg16 decks,or with my Tg16cd systems,all were new back in 92-95. I had purchased 2 cd systems and a Tg16 that came from Smartworks new,and a Tg16 deck from Toys R Us back in Dec 92.

I guess NEC likes me better than they like Michael. Maybe they were trying to bribe me to give them sexual favors.

TTI sent me Dungeon Master and a Lords of Thunder T-Shirt. I used to think that it was because of my letter writing and Turbo devotion. But now I don't want to know what they expected me to do in return. 8-[

Nice. I remember a few times being stuck in a game and wanting to call the hint line. hehe. I should really get a bonk or just some Turbo related t-shirts done up. Once I do I'll post some pics. :)

Hey guys, new blood on the boards here… break me in gently…
Stickers from my Bonks Adventure game landed on the back of my car window not to long ago, which i proudly displayed until the first rain… :roll: i would love to get some permanent stickers for my car… its a shitty Saturn but with stickers like Turbo or Higher Energy on it, it just might go faster :D

I bought both my CD and TG16 system new, both from Radio Shack - no stickers for me either, at least that I remember. :(

Welcome Sparky! :)
I used to drive a Saturn. What a nightmare that car turned out to be. It was my first used car and it just ended up being a money pit. #-o If it wasn't one thing going wrong it was another. And to all the Canadians here, or potential Canadians, DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR TO CANADIAN TIRE!!!! Those guys are devious scumbags. W5 (basically Canada's 60 minutes) did a show on them, and their service was atrocious from the east coast to the west coast. [-X
Saturn's are actually OK cars. Mine was just really old and falling apart. I drive a '96 VW Jetta now. I just recently got all the rust removed and a new paint job. The salt air here is really hard on cars. You HAVE to get rust check once if not twice a year here if you don't want your car to rust out from under you.
....anyways...what was this thread about again... :P

Dude, thats awesome. You should make a page on your site with all the cool Turbo t-shirts. It could be called; " Turbo T-Shirt Archive" or something like that 8)

No, no, my friend - I stole that word from him! :)
It comes from the opening of Street Sharks (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqGQyMF5a_0).
DUDE ,THAT CARTOON WAS THE f*ckING BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wanted the 12 inch Ripster figure so bad, my parents would never break down and let me have it. :(
Biker Mice from Mars also ruled.

What about some flags. hehe. I'd love to see a TurboGrafx flag fluttering along side the Canadian flag, the Nova Scotian flag and the Union Jack in front of the Nova Scotian legislature. :mrgreen:

Try to stick them on something you'll always have, like maybe a certain TV or something.

A guitar, keyboard/synthesizer hard case would be cool.
