Ok, now I'm embarassed! Marty McFly clock found!

First of all, I'm sorry. So, so sorry. Please don't hate me flip clockers. A couple of weeks ago I found an X-Men Sony Digimatic for $5 USD. Today I snagged a Back to the Future, Marty McFly, Panasonic RC-6015.....for $12USD. Please don't hate me. The physical condition of the clock is excellent. It keeps time and the alarm works, hwvr the neon bulb is burnt out (no surprise) and the radio has a couple of issues. I haven't torn it apart yet, but I'm betting the speaker is damaged, the pots need cleaned with contact cleaner, and maybe a broken solder connection or two. I'm so happy, it almost makes up for some of the amazing clocks you all have found recently!

Will you please buy me a lotto ticket?!

Hate? I'm happy for you! Jealous .... maybe

I don't think I'd have any luck with lottery tickets as I've clearly exhausted my reservoir of good luck on flip clocks instead!

BTW, what replacement illumination bulb does this take? Anyone? T1?

The best is a 12V 50 mA
Like these
They're incandescent and look just like the original if you put a bit of white shrink wrap on them. Comes with black pre-soldiered leads, easy to soldier right in.

Luck does happen...I found my Groundhog Day RC-6025 for $3 and my RC-6015 for $4. Both were working!! The RC-6015 is what got me started in collecting.
