That looks fantastic, Baluce. You ain't that far away from the top! You already have 6 to 9 of the rarest items boxed and in very good condition. I envy you for that. I wonder, was it just luck that you could buy these rare games for a good price? Because normally people start collecting the easy ones first and you're starting with the items everybody wants to have. Trade?? Keep it up, René

Dear all Thank you for having a look my collection. I am really happy to hear your voice. Since I live in Japan, so some games might be easier to get (with some luck, of course) but some games might be harder. Especially G&Ws which are sold only outside of Japan. (Unlike DK Hockey, DK3, and Black Jack) According to the price, I hope the prices are reasonable. Some of them are cheap but the most expensive one is Boxed Flagman which cost me about 900US$ (bought in Japan). I still remember that I found this before displayed and asked to get. Pictures are the real (just taking by Digital Camera and re-sized without any functions) since I am very clumsy about art I will keep going (but very slowly) and hope to reach where all collector is dreaming. Thanks Baluce

Hi Kevin
Thank you for having look at my collection. I try to get them all (but very slowly).
Actually, I don`t have any plan about collecting boxed Pokka. Just I like G&W and like Pokka Coffee very much!! That is the main reason. :biggrin: Beleive or not?
Also I am very weak about hearing "not for sale", even I have one, I tried to get one. But bad thing for me is that once I receive the one I got, think deeply, sometimes I already sattisfied since I posessed this item. But most of them I keep unless I find more tempting one.
Regards Baluce

Hey Baluce, Hehe...I see, I thought you like that as much as I like Mario The Juggler I visited Japan back in mid Dec-Tokyo and nearby cities like Asakusa, Ginza, Shinjuku, etc. (mainly shopping places and I was trying different drinks-just love Fanta Melon soda, Pokka Milk Cocoa, those vegetables/fruit juices, etc!) Vending machines and convenience stores are everywhere and drinks/food are pretty reasonably priced-around 80 cents for a drink as compared to like $2/slightly more if I were to purchase those here at Japanese supermarket Anyways, I was going quite a bit overboard back then so you'll notice that I have 3 or even more multiple items as I was collecting different editions/versions/etc! I'm now almost done and just bidding on Rare items such as Pocketsize/other variations/what I'm missing while I've started collecting Popy/other Japanese LCD games Kevin

Hey Michael,
I didn't find any G&W items in Japan. However, I've bought these 2 Nintendo phone straps with 1 featuring Donkey Kong and the other featuring Super Mario Bros. - I've taken pictures of these in the same G&W album while I've bought Brand New Helmet (cost me around $185 USD) and Fire FR-27 (cost me around $145 USD) in HK on the same trip that you can also see in my collection thread.
Regards, Kevin

Can I ask where you bought it in Hong Kong?
When you say brand new do you really mean brand new? i.e. with batteries?
I have been to most places in HK and they those places that sell are in fact quite expensive.
