    Small SW vintage find: the Movie viewer

    I picked this up at a local flea market for $20, MIB:
    STAR WARS Movie Viewer & 5 Tapes w/box 1979 Kenner - eBay (item 120459852989 end time Aug-23-09 21:05:57 PDT)

    I just found the boxed Viewer, mind you, but not bad anyway.
    I'm going to try to find some extra of these mini-movies, cause it's fun to watch!

    I have the SMDM version. The Kenner cartridges aren't as good as the Fisher Price ones. The wheel is frozen on all but one of my cartridges. I wish FP had made more adventurous titles.

            I have the Alien viewer. I tried to capture the short film using my video camera and a telephoto lens zooming into the small eye hole on the viewer. I have the finished file here somewhere

                I would have to find what dvd I have it archived on first. I also know I used an anti shake filter to help keep it a bit more steady

                      Were the SW cartridges compatible with the FP?
