Galactica game

I worked up the street from the Elliott Avedon Museum and Archive of Games in Waterloo, Ontario for three years without learning of its existence. Shame. Though I believe I own a copy of this Battlestar Galactica boardgame... it is almost the right time of year for rummaging through the ancestral closets of the parental units of the Flea! Though upon reflection the only collectible I want to be certain has remained intact is my old Haunted Mansion game... Doom Buggies rule.

I still have my old O.G.R.E. and G.E.V. games, car wars and all the RPG stuff. What I want is a copy of the old Avalon Hill DUNE game.

I am having a bit of a seasonal purchasing log-jam at the moment. As soon as I have financed my various commitments I am after that Avalon Hill Dune in earnest...

I just acquired a 1979-ish Coleco table hockey set with Winnipeg Jets players. Did they make a table hockey set with characters from Dune playing?

I dunno Alan. A bottle of rum, a copy of The Illustrated Dune, a photcopier, xacto knife and some superglue and BAM.. Dune Hockey.

Surely that's "Hockey of Dune".
