The Stockpile

The stockpile IS my Aquarius Collection.  Here is everything I have amassed so far.  There will likely be items added continually.  "X" means I have all for that column.  "--" means item is missing.  The "M or R" column shows whether the item was a Mattel release version or a Radofin release.  Radofin boxes have all Mattel logos removed and some manuals are multi-lingual.

There are some variations in Aquarius units as they went through production.  There are 2 types of power supplies.  The older style on the earlier serial numbered units has the prongs for connecting to the outlet on the AC adapter itself (wall wart).  The newer style has a separate cord coming from the AC unit to connect to the outlet. Since most have the old style, only units with the new style are noted in remarks.  There is another variation between Aquariuses.  On some units there is the notation "S2" after the copyright notice when you boot up basic.  I don't know what the difference is, other than there are a few less bytes of ram available.  Perhaps there is a patch to the Basic interpreter?  If anyone knows the answer, please let me know.  These units will have "S2" in their remarks.  My 240 vlt Aquariuses are untested, because I don't have a Pal Tv.
