Vinilos para Vectrex (Vectrex Wraps)

[hcmffm]

Just found an interesting ebay auction of a Spanish seller:
cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200903700777&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:DE:1123

On the Vectrex wrap it says "Luchadores del Espacio" which might be "Space Invaders".

Google Translates' Spanish is better than mine:
Buy these vinyl for decoration of the Vectrex. cover the sides of the console, and are manufacturing 100% homemade. I am not a professional, so the product is not perfect. I made two copies, one that is placed in my console, as seen in the photos, and the other on sale. vinyls are marked on the back with cut lines

only sold vinyl. the Vectrex in the photo that is NOT included in the sale. IS MY Vectrex (my treasure ..)


Note: I think it's interesting to see for all Vectrex people that's why I have posted here and not in the sales forum.

Interesting indeed! I just wonder what he's trying to represent there, since it doesn't really seem to fit with any Vectrex game that I can think of off the top of my head at the moment (sure, possibly Y. A. S. I. or any of the Vector Vaders games, but I wouldn't picture the enemies being that small!).

They do look cool but they are some sort of generic war in space design. Nothing specific to a Vectrex game.

Not unless there's some upcoming homebrew that we don't know about (yet) where a guy shoots at midget robots, I guess

That looks pretty cool! I don't think I'd put it on my own Vectrex, but I can see how someone would.

As soon as I saw it I took issue with the description of "generic". No it is not the signature of any particular Vectrex game, but it is a very distinct image. ... Reminded me of Flash Gordon comics, and of course sci-fi movie posters of the 50's and 60's.

In my quick (and incomplete) search, it looks like Luchadores del Espacio was a periodical of some kind. The title as it is printed on this guy's stickers is the trademark logo of this publication.
