The 3 protos came without shell, only the PCBs. I don't know why?
The seller had put a write label himself.
I've  put each PCB in a half cart shell to protect them.
Myself I've  put a "classic" label made with my old typewriter.

Nice protos!

My eBay purchase from Canada arrived today.  Paid a little over $15 for it all the manuals shipped :)

I bought it mostly for the Killer Bees! manual, which I had only the cart for.

- Killer Bees! - appears to be US version

- Alien Invaders - Plus! - This one is Canadian (French), I believe

- Thunderball! US

- US Owner's Manual

- Philips Videopac 5

- Philips Videopac 4

- Radiola Videopac 35

I think I got a good deal!  I'm not sure of the rarity of these items, but I do really like them

It's always been important to me when buying cartridges that they have the manuals with them.  When I first started collecting, I didn't pay as much attention to it, but now I've tried like crazy to get them all.  Looks like good finds on your part there.  I don't see that many manuals only.

Last thing I bought was a boxed Videopac C7010 Chess Module.
It's complete in box with manual and waranty card.

The box only has a little tear in the back but apart from that it looks amazing !!
The coolest thing about it.....it's fully working !

Nice!  Yes, I can fully appreciate it when you discover a nice new acquisition fully works as it did the day it left the factory many years ago.

Welcome to the forum! :)

The Voice Module for less than $70 shipped on eBay.  Came with 3 of the Voice games, and a manual and magic booklet for Nimble Numbers Ned.  It works great!  The inside of the module was very dirty, so I spent some time cleaning it.  I really like how it works.  I'm sure I'll have a lot of fun with this one!

I've thought of getting The Voice module, but it's tough for me to justify even $70...   :(

I love the voice-module on Smithereens.

Me too!  My brother and I played it last night.  The sound effect of the castle falling apart is great. (And really loud!)

Thank you!  I thought it was weird I didn't even have one to go with my 12 working Odyssey 2 consoles. Hehe

I'd say it's worth it. One could probably find them for a better deal if they looked hard enough.  Sometimes they are bundled with untested consoles and sell for less, but that is slightly more risky as they are untested.

After my post yesterday, I looked on eBay for Odyssey Voice, and there were only a few.
One was untested for $15 - but the seller wanted $45 to ship to Canada by priority post.  $60 seems like a lot to gamble on an untested device.

Other than that, the other Voice modules were over $100 - some WELL over - plus shipping.
