Also I can add the 2 Fisher Price PXL2000 cassette kids camcorders.
I should of add the VCRs I first purchased as new in the box which was a Panasonic HiFi portable combo with tuner PV9600 in 1985 about a year later I bought a Sony SL-HF750 ans a NEC N965U.

The Sony Betamax is the only one still alive.The others need some repair.

The NEC was a nightmare and it had alot of issues and in for repair many times.When It worked It had an awesome picture and sound.

The Panasonic portable was a workhorse until it had mechanical and alignment issues.

Also in 1985 I added the Radio Shack Realistic TV100 MTS stereo receiver to the Panasonic since its tuner was only mono at the time.

Wow I dont believe it was almost 30 years ago.
