Halo-light?

Historically interesting set, agree?

I'd do it in a heartbeat, but the "location-location-location" bugaboo strikes again....

That's a nice looking set. I have never watched a Halolight but I would like to. I bet it's a neat effect at night.

The two that I own work only marginally (never recapped) so I've never really "watched" them...

Wow of all the times to be out of town I just got to my computer, saw the thread and checked it out all ready gone, Did any one of us get it??? those are nice sets, my neighbors had one, not that impressive, but it did have a great pix they were still watching it in the late 90s (second set) I wanted that set so bad, but the greedy kids packed everything up and sold it at a consignment auction,

Yeah..."one of Us got it"...ME.

I Could NOT "let it die". It looks like a "COLD" set, with halo light. And now that gas is down to about $2 a gallon here, I CAN afford to go get it. Besides, I MAY have another 2000 to go after soon,. too.

By "cold" do I assume you to mean a transformer chassis?
