Hi folks!
After almost 4 months after my last post, i'm back to resume my OdySim project. Sorry for the long delay but since summer here is not very long (3 to 4 months), me and my kids tried to enjoy the summer for all it can give (sunlight, warm temperature, beautiful days, etc).
I have finished scanning the G.B.C. Odissea manual yesturday and already uploaded it to archive.org.
I was a lucky S.O.B to get my hand on this very rare manual of the G.B.C. Odissea and as for now, it is the only copy known until other copie(s) surface. But the weirdest thing is no one has the game console either for sale or in the hands of a collector. Hopefully one will surface as i wonder if some accessories (money, cards, etc) will be in Italian only or not.
So now the manual has been preserved digitally and is available HERE.
Or check out my "Magnavox Odyssey Archive" to either download/view anything related to the Magnavox Odyssey and clones (archive still not finished).
Enjoy!

I'm in Italy and found an italian odyssey some weeks ago. It is incomplete (missing all the overlays and some accessories) but it has the manual and some cards. the cards are tri language. model YE7100BK14 run 1.
I've posted some photo on Reddit, you can reach me there if need some more infos: https://www.reddit.com/r/retrogaming/comments/1jbdkte/today_i_found_something_ive_only_seen_once_in_a/
I'm adding that this version differs from others in some ways, like the controller text ("ball" instead of "english" and "start" instead of "reset") and the game cord, which is not a stand alone cable, but instead is a cord that goes through the console chassis and solders on the mainboard (it seem too well made to be an amatorial work, so my suspect is that it had been modified this way by GBC probably). also the TV end of the antenna cable is directly the european RF plug (no switch box).
