Classic Game Pens put the 'fun' in functional

Alrighty, maybe that headline wasn't one of our best. Hey, they can't all be winners. We like these pens because they are, for lack of a better word, fun. Not only will kids love them, but so will anyone who fondly remembers playing these classic games while growing up. While Etch-a-Sketch and Operation aren't as advanced as today's shoot-em-up games, we don't think pens that shoot bullets would be very popular (or extremely safe).

Classic Game Pens Operation, Etch-a-sketch, and Boggle
Classic Game Pens are fully functional versions of old-school games like Operation and Etch-A-Sketch.

The games really do work!

Etch-A-Sketch Pen

Turn the two control knobs of The Etch-A-Sketch Game Pen to create a drawing. Shake it upside down to erase and try again.

Everything you remember and love about the Etch-A-Sketch is alive and well in the pen-sized version.

Operation Pen

The Operation Game Pen features removable pieces which are connected by nylon thread so they will never get lost. The tweezers are hidden in the screwtop of the pen. And yes, if you screw up, the patient's nose lights up and you receive a nasty "errrr" sound from the internal speaker. The battery required for gameplay is included. It's a small watch battery, so it doesn't add much weight to the Operation Pen.

Operation Game Pen
The Operation Game Pen has removable pieces, a light-up nose, and tweezers hidden in the screwtop of the pen.

Boggle Pen

You can do some serious Boggle-ing with the Boggle Pen. It features a removable top as well as a removable sand timer. And yes, the pen still works when you remove these pieces.

Lastly, don't worry about losing any of the letters. They're trapped inside the cube.

Classic Game Pen Boggle
The Boggle Game Pen features removable pieces that while small are still playable.

Your questions that have been answered by the Vat19.com staff

Q: Can you replace the ink refills with pencil refills? I would like to give the game pen as a gift to a kid.
A: Lead should not be used with the Game Pens, as they are not made for this type of use. The Game Pens should only be refilled with a D-1 standard mini ballpoint pen refill.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Hi! I would like to buy one operation game pen but I live in Spain (Europe) Could you send me this pen to Spain? How much money does it cost?
A: Yes, we can ship an Operation Pen to Spain. In fact, we ship worldwide! To get a shipping quote, click the "Get Shipping Quote" link at the top of the page. It is to the right of the big picture of the item.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: yes is it safe to actually order online and give out your information because this is my first time ordering something on vat19.com
A: Welcome, new customer! Ordering online at Vat19.com is safe and secure. In fact, our website is tested daily by McAfee to ensure that we are 100% secure.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: I'm interested in the Boggle pen, but it looks like the Boggle logo covers most of the top of the letter case. Honestly, does it interfere with being able to see the letters clearly?
A: We don't think so. We've played a few rousing games of Boggle ourselves without a problem, and we have not received any complaints from customers.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: I am sooo getting one for Christmas! They look sooo awesome!
A: They ARE awesome. Yay for Christmas!
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: are they durable to last 4years+?
A: If you write with the pen often, the ink probably wouldn't last 4 years, but the game will still be usable. Keep in mind that each game pen uses standard D-1 mini ballpoint refills.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Are these game pens comfortable enough to write with for long periods of time?
A: The Classic Game Pens are well-balanced and lightweight, so we don't have any problems with them. They aren't like some of the novelty pens that are so heavily-weighted at the top that they are awkward to use.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: they look so fun i want one.
A: All you've gotta do is "Add to Cart"!
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Is the pen customizable? For example, could I have a company website inscribed on one side?
A: Vat19 does not offer any imprinting services. You could probably find a company that will imprint the Classic Game Pens for you.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: do they break easily
A: Under normal use, no. Now if you were to, say, put one on the ground and then jump on it repeatedly, then you might encounter some breakage.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: I have the operation pen and the game is fun, but can't figure out how to pull the pieces back into the body without the nylon strings sticking out. Is there something I should twist to pull them back in?
A: The Operation Game Pen does not have any mechanism to retract the pieces. While holding the piece, feed the string back into the body and then put the piece back in.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Do you have full size original games that double as functioning pens?
A: Ha, no. Those would be HUGE pens!
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Hi there, I just got a Boggle pen here in the Philippines and it is so cool! I am so amused with this one. Its so cute! Aside from Boggle & Etch-A-Sketch, do you have any other mini game pens?
A: Yes, check out our Operation Game Pen! It features a miniaturized version of the game on top of the pen, complete with tweezers, pieces to remove, and that horrible "ERRR!" sound when you mess up.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: it is possible to make circles on etch-a-sketch. If you twist both knobs at the same time, it makes a loopy demented circle :)
A: The Etch-A-Sketch on the game pen works just like a regular Etch-A-Sketch, so anything you could do on the standard size, you can do with the pen. Just on a smaller scale, of course.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: That's just....simply awesome. Great video, too.
A: Thanks!
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Can you fit something like a mini survival kit in the container for the Boggle pen?
A: Well, you might be able to fit a small tweezers or a bandage in there, but you'd have to remove the sand timer in order to do so. And without a sand timer, you can't play Boggle!
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: what materials have you used?
A: That will depend a little bit on which style of Classic Game Pen. Operation pen? Boggle pen? Etch A Sketch pen?
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Can you print a custom logo on these game pens?
A: No, we do not offer any personalization services. However, we're sure you could find a local company that could print onto these pens for a nominal fee.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: When do you expect to have more Boggle pens in?
A: We will not have more Boggle pens until late January or February 2009.
