Very nice collection Phil - Congrats! I like the unique display layout as well as the fact that you have a good mixture of various G&W related items, like the shippers, the dioramas, some pamphlets, keychains, plastic display cases, etc.... Lots of nice minty looking games too, though, is it just me, or do the colours look off on the BF? The boxed MS DK almost doesn't fit in with rest of the games, given its wear etc... Is this piece an original G&W you had from your childhood by chance? I also see that, like most of us, you have a few notable MIA games. LOL! I haven't forgotten about the one we're discussing, so, I'll try to get back to you with some pics shortly. I'm just in the middle of a move, so, things are rather hectic, and of course, everything is all over the place! Well done though, and keep up the great collecting work! AC PS You know what else is missing from your collection? Some nice PS/NOA games!!!

thanks AC,you are right about the BF,it was sold to me as brandnew and indeed it is brandnew,you can feel that the box never was opened but the box had been exposed to the sunlight all of the years,really a shame. The DK i had as a child and al the rest of the games i had (think i had about 10 or 12) were broken or misplaced or found their way to the thrashcan over the years.The DK i have now was the start of the new collection,it was the fisrt i bought and had no idea of prices or all the rest,some boxes like the DK gonna be replaced by time but first things first,get all 60 games boxed. A nice or some nice PS/NOA is realy missing in my collection but when i follow them on ebay they mostly end up above my limit,maybe you can spare me one ;D thanks

Okay, let's see what you still need: Mickey Mouse Pano Egg Ball Lion (Standard Version) Flagman Turtle Bridge I think that's all I can see. Yup, you have a couple of doozies in there!!! Egg & Flagman will be VERY difficult. Ball will also be hard to get. MM Pano is not as hard as it used to be, but still, quite rare, and very hard to find in half-decent shape. Lion and Turtle Bridge should be the easiest, esp. Lion. TB is one of those games that flies under the radar, and is surprisingly hard to find in boxed form. Everything looks very nice - Congrats! Donkey Kong can probably be upgraded, and I would imagine at some point, you might want to replace CGL versioned games and the Tric, with Standard versions. Hey, I have to ask, what's up with that coin balancing on your CSMB game??? Good luck with getting the rest Phil! AC

thank's guy's,indeed you are right about everything aris,those are the ones i need and still looking for,a turtle box is on the way but has some writing on,will have to do for the moment,just a loose game and that is not too hard,for the rest,one at the time,the coin you are referring to is in fact the batterie for the CS,it was fallen and i put it on my box so i'd remember it afterwards,you have a sharp eye

I love the display style. I might have a boxed Flagman for your collection in a month or so if you still need one by then.
I'm only 3 short of a 60/60 boxed collection myself. I wonder who'll get there first. ;D
Boxes I need:
DK Circus, Popeye Pano, DKJR Pano

thanks,if a get a free second from time to time i make a display for game and box,it's not that difficult,i've made 4 so far please keep my updated for the flagman,only 3 boxes left,not much at all,rather difficult ones if you want them in nice condition and i think you'll reach for an almost mint collection looking at your games so good luck with that.i will start looking for upgrades for some games as some boxes are damaged,like my DK or mario bros for example and if course the carded and blisters i like so much but i have time
