Can't find out how to order one....no listing on eBay...inkslayer666@Gmail.com. thanks Sorry. I have pretty much reached the end of the Blue shell availability. I have a very few in my own reserve stock that I might toss up one at a time auction style. But not many. Keep your eyes open for the eBay listings. Read the thread OP or look here eBay: Vectrex Blue Game Cartridge (Cart) Case / Shell - New Reproduction

Steve, here's a direct link to one of Chris' remaining reserve stash. If you want the translucent blue, this might be your last good chance. Or if new black repro's will suffice, those will be coming in any time and should be easily available for the next year (?) or until supplies dwindle. Wax and wane cycle with those carts.

A question to everyone. For the next future order possibly around five(5) years from now, what are colors people might want?
Personally I was thinking about an order for some orange colored cart shells.
But from the last time the question went out the Red and clear shells were the most requested.

OK, I will place my vote for 2019: red.
edit: " hot pink" (now that I know it's an option.)

I'd like any color, as long as it is red.

But radioactive green could be great too! Really I like all colors.. except blue, maybe XD

My old hacked candy tin case for my 72-in-1 ( vectrex.playntradeonline.com/multicart.html ) went to heck the other day. See attachment 1 & s242.photobucket.com/user/infernolab/library/Vectrex%2072-in-1%20Cart?sort=9&page=1 . Altoids tins have been done to death. You can find so many other interesting candy tins at the 99 Cents Store. :] Decided to use one of my translucent blues for a less hacky replacement. I needed to snip a couple of the internal posts to clear some PCB components, & the 3 main holes didn't line up w/ the posts, so I had to trim half of the the outer 2 posts to get those to align. All in all, I like it--glad I had an extra cartridge face label! -Jason

More pics. Again, Altoids are so passe. There are all sorts of other awesome candy tins that hold & protect Vectrex carts so darn splendidly! -Jason

Cool! Your cart packaging notes really deserve a thread of their own. Both for housing the complete cart, and for housing the board itself as an alternative cart case.
