Rare commodore related stuff..
C65 (Missing a chip, :-( )
MSD-2 Disk Drive. (works great on my Pet 2001)

Other than those most of my collection is pretty easy to find.

I've also still got a Monoco GP cabaret arcade game, it's the last arcade game made by sega that didn't use a cpu. (All TTL logic)


Later,

Not a computer, but I have a Add Hard SCSI controller in one of my A500. Very hard to find controller and a pig to make a SCSI disk work with.

On the other hand, aussie people can now buy a MicroBee computer kit!

Didaktik Gama, not rare in my country but I am sure there are not many (if any) people here who even know what it is :lol:
You mean you will not have this Gama computer for a long time.:p
 
The rarest computers I have are a C64-C and an A500. Ok, not very rare, but still the rarest amongs the computers I have. :)

Edit: Also have a HP48 GX, and still use it regularly. From 1993, so becoming retro as well.

The rarest game is probably Hugo (danish game) on Cartridge for C64. Not very rare in DK, but I'm sure it is in other countries. I also have a 'BMP-Data Multimodul' which is essentially ABC Tape Turbo and some other tape turbo on a cartridge so no need for loading it from tape.. I think that one is pretty rare as I've not been able to find anything about it online (cartridge is also DK designed).

I've now got a commodore web.it computer. Beautiful condition that I found at a car boot sale. It won't be mine for long though.
 
My rarest set is a boxed Creative Labs 3DO Blaster, and a brand new/unopened Playstation 3 40GB. The rarest games are Turrican 2, Xenon 2 for CDTV and unopened Zelda Wind Waker for gamecube.

I have a nice little sega nomad and recently picked up a Scorpion XVI megadrive clone. I've always fancied a multimega but never found one at the right price and not prepared to pay silly money for it.
 
I don't like keeping much vintage hardware anymore, so sold / gave away 99% of my collection a long time ago, but some 'uncommon-ish' stuff I've previously owned:

PDP-11/40
Imsai 8080
Altair 8800
PET 2001-4
DEC VT100
(All picked up free from a College in Oldham... aaah the good old pre-eBay days!)

Atari 260ST (not uncommon just a bit odd)
Intertec Superbrain
ZX80
Apple Lisa 2
CBM 710

But the ones which I really regret getting rid of were my Tandy Model 12 and Tandy Model 16 with 8" drives. I have never seen them for sale and I swapped them for a couple of un-rare Megadrive games back in the 90s :D

I consider the Tandy to be rarer than anything else I own simply because I never see them for sale. Model II, III, yes, but never the 16.

Wow, I'd love to own a Sega Nomad. I remember seeing one in a shop called Another World in Leicester cIty Centre when I was in my teens (90s).

I do have a boxed Multimega, but its so sad! The CD drive wore out, and I don't know what to replace it with.

One day I hope to find out how to fix it.

I have some great games for it too inc Sol Feace, Final Fight, Battlecorps, Prince of Persia and Ecco the Dolphin.

I'd also like to get a copy of Sewer Shark one day.

Sewer Shark is one of those games that I always meant to get, but due to it being so well advertised, I thought I'd hold out for a cheapy one.

Sonic CD was pretty good too, although a tad disappointing compared to Sonic 2 on the MD.

Your copy of Wind Waker. Does it include the preorder sleeve you could get from HMV? I preordered mine from Amazon not realising I would miss out on the sleeve.

I was so disappointed.

Great game, but I really really really wanted that sleeve.

Stupid brown box *kicks* (I wouldn't really kick it)

I preordered skyward sword a few novembers ago and still havent got around to opening it, let alone playing it.
 
My rarest items are my Marty FM Towns and my 64 DD for my N64.

Like my Neo Geo AES, too :-)

I hate me for selling my Bandai pippin, got it for around [SNIP] incl. shipping from Japan , and now you don´t get one under [SNIP] with shipping € aargh.

I´m even proud of my C64 Maniac Mansion and ZakMckracken in Great conditions.
Was happy I found Labyrinth from Lucasarts on Disc (Got a second one with Case but without instructions if someone is looking for it(could copy the instructions)

Recently I picked up a non-working A690 (prototype of A570) for next to nothing. Today I disassembled it, removed the leaking battery and patched two destroyed PCB traces. Now it's fully kicking! :thumbsup:

I guess that might be my "rarest" electronic device. Well, maybe my two or three Minec 1000 portable terminals from early 80'th would match it.
