What's something you have that you bet other HROT members don't?

A plasma television.

Something I don’t have is a television on the main floor.

I hope you didn’t bet much on that. I still use my old 50 inch 1080p plasma in my retro game room. Right now I have each of these systems hooked up to the preceding TVs.

Samsung 65inch 4k OLED: Nintendo WiiU, PlayStation 4, Xbox One S, Analogue Duo, Analogue Mega SG and Retron 77 HD.

Samsung 50inch 1080p Plasma: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, Retron 5, Nintendo GameCube, Alienware Alpha, Panasonic 3DO for most games, Sega Dreamcast and Philips CDi.

Sony Trinitron 36 inch Flat CRT: Goldstar 3DO for Shooting Games only, Playstation One, Sega Saturn, Nintendo 64, Super Nintendo, Sega CDX (rare combo Genesis and Sega CD that also worked as a portable cd player/walkman), Nintendo Entertainment System and TurboDuo (combination TG-16 and Turbografx CD).

Sony Trinitron 32 inch CRT: Atari 7800, Sharp Twin Famicom (combo Nintendo Famicom and Nintendo Disk System), “Tower of Power” (Sega Genesis plus Sega 32x plus Sega CD), Epoch Super CassetteVision Lady Model, Colecovision, Sega Master System, Viewmaster Interactive-Vision hooked up to a VHS, Action Max hooked up to a VHS, and Atari XEGS.

Batman-themed 13” CRT TV with separate Batman themed DVD player: Sears TeleGames One (Atari 2600 sold by Sears but with burnished walnut instead of pine wood or plastic depending on the model), Bentley Compuvision, Sears Super Video Arcade (Intellivision console sold through Sears in white plastic as opposed to black), Magnavox Odyssey 2, and Nintendo Color TV Games 15.

Transparent 13” CRT TV sold for prison usage: Texas Instruments TI-99/4A, Tandy TRS-80 Color Computer “Coco”, Fairchild Channel F, and Coleco Telstar Arcade.

JVC Videosphere 10” Black and White CRT Tv in the shape of an astronauts helmet: Magnavox Odyssey, Magnavox Odyssey 500, Atari Pong, Coleco Telstar Combat, Nintendo Color TV Games-6 in first iteration offwhite with batteries only, Atari Stuntcycle and Sears Speedway 4.

Of course all of my current generation plus some Analogue consoles and an emulation computer are on my main living room tv.

Have a nazi armband from ww2. My grandmother's brother was in some kind of intel unit and brought all sorts of weird loot home. My cousin got a nazi flag. Both of us arent really sure what to do with them. When we got them we both were like.

My grandfather had some confederate money. Not sure what happened to that when he died.

I own a couple plasmas yet...Panasonics, 57" and 42". Both still in (light) use and work perfect. GREAT televisions.



I'm fairly certain that my 4 Ariens snowblowers from the 1970's can't be topped. Hell, my bet is nobody owns a single one from the 70's let alone 4. They all run perfect. One is for show (nut and bolt restoration of my father's 1973...she's purty), the other three I picked up for free and got them into running condition intending to sell them...then it decided to not really snow the past 4 winters.

I own a 1970ish Homelite Super XL chainsaw (Old Blue)...runs great and looks even better.

I own a 1963ish Zenith MJ1035W 7 tube stereo radio...sort of one of the early mini-radios...works pretty damn good, still decodes stereo too.



Some pics, not mine specifically, but valid examples...

My dad's blower engine is painted black, but otherwise just as pretty.

Here's the radio...my parents had one when I was young but it died in the 1970's (nearby lightning strike fried it). I had been looking for another one for decades, didn't find one locally until just a couple years ago.

The chain saw...the saw in this pic has seen some use obviously. Mine doesn't have a mark on it.

I've got the same chainsaw except mine has the manual thumb pump chain oiler.
 
Most of the things mentioned you can buy.

"I doubt anyone owns a 2011 Tundra crew max with the 4.6 on KO2s...."



That being said:
I own a Iowa Hawkeye "candy jar" that I have filled with Mallard curls. I would be suprised if any of you have that and if you do hit me up.

I've got a Folgers can about half full of pheasant tails, wish I would have always saved them.
