Here are some of my pickups from the past 3-4 months.
Starting off with some local/thrift finds.
Grabbed the two Wii's for $8 each and an Xbox for $5. All loose but working.
Anyways here are some more interesting finds courtesy of the interwebs. I obviously have a proclivity towards collecting for game series that begin with the letter S and are full of anthropomorphic animals.
Some Star Fox strategy guides.
Star Fox pair of socks and a 2015 E3 exclusive iron on patch.
Some unopened Nintendo cards from 1993. These came in Kellogg's Apple Jacks boxes.
These were Taco Bell items from 1997 promoting the N64. The item on the left is a POG. If you got two POG's to equal the number 64 apperently you would win something. The item on the right is a Star Fox 64 kids meal toy. It's basicially like a mini carnival shooter game. It's kinda hard to get a good overall picture of it.
The top item is some sort of prototype run of a Fox McCloud figure from Jakks Pacific. The bottom is a GameStop exclusive Star Fox 64 3D dogtag set.
This Star Fox Survival Kit was a Circuit City pre-order exclusive item. It contained a Jones Soda Fox Fuel (Green Apple flavor) a door hangtag and a roll of toilet paper with Star Fox Adventures game tips... yeah thats weird. Apparently Circuit City also gave away Star Fox temporary tattoos and a car air freshener with this too. I dont know if they came in the kit itself because the kit doesen't say it does on the back. Maybe they just gave them to you separately.
On the left is a UK exclusive DVD cantaining game footage. This was a GAME UK pre-order item. On the right is a promotional lanyard. Perhaps a E3 exclusive item.
On the left is Star Fox for the Atari 2600. Obviously no relation to the Nintendo series. Apparently this game was thought to have been one of the reasons that Star Fox was renamed Starwing for a while in European regions. It's really from a company called StarVox in Germany that the name was apparently changed. On the right is a Star Fox Adventures Japan exclusive manga/comic titled Star Fox: Farewell, Beloved Falco. It was given away by some retailers with the purchase of the game. It seems to have a pretty limited print run.
This is a store Kiosk Demo cart. It's really just the full game. Pretty unique item to have.
Alright, now onto the other S series games.
Some Sonic games for the PC. The bottom two are from the fast food chain Jack in the Box from 1999. I think you could buy them for $1.99 with a kids meal or $5.99 individually.
This is a 1992 UK exclusive record H.W.A. Supersonic dance mix single of Green Hill Zone. It's super weird to see this even exists. It also came out on Cassette and CD. Give it a listen on Youtube. It's catchy.
These are animation cels from the 1993 show Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. One of them is a line art drawing before the cel is created and one has a static background. Super cool and unique to have these in my collection. I'll be sure to pick up more in the future.
And thats all for now.
