curious: if you find one of these Lite-Brite cartoons in your city...

[npincus]

would that be considered evidence that you'd have to turn over to police? Or could you keep it?



I'm wondering how long until one of them turns up on eBay....

1. They're way ahead of you.

As of noon they were going for 5K on ebay.

2. you've gotta be kidding!

:rofl:

3. Wow!

I'd want one just because I LOVED my Lite-Brite when I was a kid (but you don't see them much anymore).

6. The mooninite LEDs are going for 5K.

Not vintage LiteBrites.

The 5K was reported here by another DUer.

13. I got my nephew a lite-brite last year.. They suck now.

Mainly because they now run on DC instead of AC, but the rest of it wasn't as solid either.. The pegs are lighter and don't "snap in" like they used to. It was a very disappointing gift.

5. DAMN!

I should have went driving around Austin and seen how many I could find.

I'm always too late. :cry:

16. Wow!

How 'bout I just buy a used Lite Brite from ebay and make my OWN? It would be cheaper than 5K!!!
