More Donkey Kong!
A few more vintage Donkey Kong related items have happily found their way into my ever expanding DK collection-- a cute little plastic drinking cup dated 1982-- and highlighted by the awesome arcade art of Leslie Carbarga-- as well as another coin bank (see my other DK bank HERE) dated 1981. Seriously, there's so much fun Donkey Kong stuff that I really had no idea ever even existed until recently-- and now I'm on the never ending hunt for more!

That is an excellent wraparound cup graphic. I am also quite surprised at the great number of Donkey Kong related things there seem to be in the world.
Seems like every time I turn around I find out about another DK board game! My real goal is of course to own an original upright arcade version
With all of the Donkey Kong/Speed Racer/Ultra Man items you could start your own museum for each character.
Don't laugh, there is even a 3 Stooges Museum, The Stoogeum, in Ambler PA, so there is room for just about any museum you can think of.
Naturally. That should pretty much be everybody's goal.
I was never particularly good at Donkey Kong, but the beautiful absurdity kept me playing anyway.
I never beat DK arcade machine (that sole credit goes to Joust) but I did beat all of the main levels-- the Pie Factory was always the goal to achieve, but was surprisingly easier (for me) to master than the elevator level.
Not laughing at your museum idea, JMR-- my office is slowly becoming one with each passing week!
