... for
the side band of the 1983 Walt Disney's DRAGONS LAIR lunchbox from
Aladdin Industries.
Gone for $600 (406€), the winner -according the previous
evaluation- doesn't seems to be a Dragon's Lair collector but ... a
collector of ... Lunchbox (Aladdin, Spiderman, Star Wars, Pac Man,
...). I hope he's also a big Dragon's Lair fan too !

Maybe some
of you didn't see it on ebay these days.;. because the seller made a
mistake in the title, see : ORIGINAL COLORED ART - 1983 DRAGAONS

- Karsteens Creation presents "STARtoons - Retro Rescue"
"I have always
wanted to make an animated toon game, like 'Dragon's Lair' or 'Space
Ace'...so Im doin' just that!...it
will be based on my STARtoons characters, rather than utilizing
copyrighted characters...this way, I can do whatever I like!
The game,
entitled 'Retro Rescue', centers around Nikki and Nero (my STARtoons
characters) being sent into cyberspace to rescue all the arcade
classics characters from wiped from existance by a bad guy (who
happens to suck at video games) called 'The Retronator'.
The game will be a first (I think) encorporating animated sequences
the player interacts w/, plus 'mini games' in each level that pay
tribute to arcade classics..." Kevin K.
Previously discussed
here in 2006, Kevin presents now a big update on this project.
Have a look at his latest video on this
post. A must see... Impressive !!!
