REVELL'S INSTA-WIN VIDEO GAME

I perused a cabinet-art gallery without success -- can anyone out there identify which Atari arcade game is depicted? More to the point, which contest only let you win a chance to play a game? That's crazy talk. Funny how the 50 VCSes are kind of tucked away as a kind of gooney prize, as are the 5 thousand Revell kits. "So: kids these days like video games, not model kits. But will they buy a model kit for a chance to win a video game?" My guess is: probably not.

Further hilarity: * The depiction of the game card (and here's a penny, with which you might find yourself scratching it, for those who suffer from a complete and total lack of imagination.)
* The closing of the blurb would have actually been pretty hilarious if the voice of The Man Without Irony hadn't crashed it with the closing sentence.
* And finally: Tom Selleck's visage. (Is it Mangum P.I. which is the trademark of Universal City Studios called out in the small print?) Certainly Tom Selleck enjoyed fame in an era when celebrities did end up in video games, but sadly for him his particular flavour of it locked him out of this digital immortality when less-manly successors such as Michael J. Fox ended up pixelated all over the place.
