2) Bohus and Shaun... Go on an Odyssey
A vibration exerciser, a VHS camcorder, and a 1970s Magnavox Odyssey: Shaun and Bohus have unearthed promising rarities at a flea market in Illinois. On a road trip across the American Midwest when passing through Illinois and Wisconsin, Hatton and Blahut discover a Magnavox Odyssey, officially known as the world's first commercial video game. The duo is particularly happy about the game console, because the device is one of the first of its kind. The "Odyssey" laid the foundation for a multi-billion dollar industry and the "Vintage Tech Hunters" already have an idea of where to find suitable games. To dramatically increase the console's monetary value, they set out on an odyssey themselves, hunting for missing parts they need to sell the game as a complete package. While rummaging for missing parts, they also uncover antique exercise equipment, including the Vitamaster Model 35 Vibrator Belt Exercise Machine from the 1950s, complete with a Vitamaster Roller Massager from the same era.
