Entry 27th July 2019: Post 01: C64C Box Set Light Fantastic.
C64C Box Set Light Fantastic.
Onto box number two ....
So does she work ? Good question. I have had these two large
boxes sitting here for years and I know I opened them a year or
so ago to check the contents, but do the computers work ?
I did once have a notion of collecting C64/c presentation packs.
But having struggled with actually obtaining all the contents
I gave up in truth. It took me a good while, if I recall to build
a box filled with all the original contents and so I shelved the
idea and so basically have a few of the boxes sprinkled around.
The second box in the collection is Light Fantastic and a pretty
banged up box. I actually do have another better box and will
feature that over the coming days. Inside is the usual computer
boxed and datassette plus a large white box which holds the
Light-Gun .. whoo hoo. No games again that relate to the box, but
instead a single game box and a random bunch of C64 games.
Plus an alien power supply.
Inside the computer box there is the book plus leaflet so all was
not totally as it should have been. My other box has more of the
original contents.
Turning to the computer she looked just perfect to be honest and
I had no doubt that she would work. Worked a charm and a credit
to the good name of Commodore for producing such a work of art.
For me the C64C and C128 of similar design is where the Amiga
1200 started from with the true line of machines being these
plus the A500/A500Plus and A600. Shame there wasn't another.
Anyway, I put the box back together comforted by the fact that
they both worked. Job done. For now.
