Some of you already know that I collect Donkey Kong related stuff (click HERE for my awesome coin bank), and today I scored an overload of great items: a board game, a puzzle, a stuffed DK, and a complete sticker / scratcher card set. Some of these I didn't even know existed until today:
PLUS: the original "Do the Donkey Kong" 45 single by Buckner and Garcia:

I had an old Milton Bradley 3D board game for Donkey Kong way back when.
ReplyDeleteI love it when they base board games on other kinds of games. Very meta. I like the way this card game looks, too. The box art is excellent, and I guess you lay down the ladder structure as you play? Kind of like dominoes. I think you should dress up in an ape suit and do tarot readings with that deck next Halloween.
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite thing from your haul is the sliding tile puzzle. I love those anyway, and this one is so wonderfully (slightly?) off-model. It strikes me that the original 8-bit characters would actually work really well on a puzzle like this.
I'll relay the news as soon as I get a chance to actually play the board game. I'll have to look into the 3D game. Workin' on adding couple more items to the DK collection too-- coming soon!
