atari 2600 blue label variants(different price or rarity?)

[swlovinist]

I looked on the rarity guide, forums for a specific topic to answer the below question, and I did not find it. I have four blue label carts for the (label variants), and I was wondering what is the approximate rarity difference of these and apporox cart only value?

Atlantis(imagic)
Ghostbusters(activision)
Robot Tank(activision)
Boxing(activision)

Any help would do, and thanks once again!

Atlantis, Robot Tank and Boxing are considerably more scarce then their original labels and generally sell around $4-7 cart only. I have actually seen more blue label Ghostbusters then graphic label ones over the years and there's really no premium that I've seen for either variation.

*EDIT* Just noticed the guide does list Atlantis (the Activision release would be the blue label cart) at R5/$12. Seems a little on the high side $-wise though.

I don't this this is a complete list, but these are ones I've had at one time or another:

Atlantis
Boxing
Chopper Command
Demon Attack
Enduro
Ghostbusters
Ice Hockey
Kaboom
Keystone Kapers
Megamania
Moonsweeper
Pitfall
River Raid
Robot Tank
Skiing
Space Shuttle

These are supposed to have been made as well:
Freeway
Grand Prix

I just got Moonsweeper as the blue label and company on label says Imagic. So it's Imagic and I should put it as that on my collection list or is it really an Activision reissue? The blue labels from Imagic/Activision are rarer then the color/picture labels?

Atlantis, Demon Attack & Moonsweeper have Imagic's name on the label but were re-issued by Activision.

Ok so I got the blue label reissue by Activision of I-Magic's Moonsweeper. Which rarity do I go by for it then in my collection list from the DP guide?

Do the blue and white label re-issues have different box art too?

So ya suggest just use the same DP listing for the reg and the blue/white label variants?

[christhegamer]

though I'm not sure if this is what your talking abotu, I have a blue-label variant of Demon Attack. the DP guide says it's an R5, so I'll have to agree.

I have that too, its the only one I've found of the blue/white labels with a different entry for the label variant.

Holy time warp...clarifying an answer I gave 11 months ago.

No...I said, use the Activision listing.

That's what I've started doing. and just use the reg listing for the reg Activision re-issues?

I don't believe so. Perhaps a different UPC, but that's about it.
