I just saw that before you bought it.  I wondered if anyone would jump on it.  

abd I did indeed Bill! 🤠

 

The seller has been so kind to accept my offer and give me 40 bucks discount, shipping was free. So, if we value 50 bucks the LF I cartridge, it makes 400 bucks, not that bad for a LF II CIB in decent conditions if we compare it to the average prices we saw in the last two/three years…

Not too bad of a deal (considering you needed it). Its a good feeling isnt it? Lol... Hopefully a red one will show its head soon for you!

Congrats.

Well, I’m almost hoping to do not grab the red one cuz in that case I will be obliged to buy also the Spiker and complete the set!🤠😎🤣

Hi Folks!

Tonight (here in Italy) I got crazy and bought this LF II CIB plus LF I cartridge only that popped out on Ebay for 450 bucks!!!😳😳😱🤠😎

 

I thought it was not a too bad deal…

I think I can fix the little scraps on the labels…

Now I can wait for a MINT copy like that schrinkwrapped one that Sean Kelly sold on Ebay some years ago (that one was top, but 1.200 bucks were a bit high, even if now I regret I miss it, that was a unique piece).

 

So, what do you think?

I need your support!🙏

But don’t worry and give me your real feedback !👍

450 bucks it’s not peanuts…😓😥😅

Now I’m missing Spiker and LF I CIB to become Platinum, (the 1000+ variants I did accumulate on my shelves don’t count…🤣🤣🤣)

 

That's an awesome pickup . $450 is not peanuts but it's worth it all, imho.

Congrats!

Yeah, that’s where I’m sitting now.  Other than a few variant boxes that i keep an eye out for, that Spiker box is my white whale.

Probably…

In Netherlands they don’t use French.

In Belgium they do, plus Dutch.

 

So, I would say that those games with two manuals, French & Dutch, are only for the Belgium market…

 

What are the SN?

Both manuals are 0161.

Boxes are 0410.

Very interesting question and list Rog!

 

I’m not into manuals (yet) and this question raised my attention to them…😳😱

 

Hope to resist cuz I’m already in deep s..t by collecting box variants, if I start with manuals I’ll get ruined for sure!🤣

Actually most of the Dutch games I've bought came with French manuals as well. 🤔

It makes sense…

Probably the distributor was selling in Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg) so, to save time, decided to go with both French & Dutch manuals everywhere, even in in Netherlands the French one was not required….

Both are slotted backs with overlay slots inside.

 

Morpheus, if your collecting box variants, arent you also collecting manual variants too by default? I mean... youve been collecting the manuals unwillingly...lol. Face it, your in... lmao.

Well, yes… you might have a point indeed…

 

and it’s true that I have quite a lot of different manuals so far…

 

but there is a problem Rog…

a big problem…

 

I’m an ultracompletionist!😭

 

For example, I do like and collect the II cartridges with the white label glued ove the colored Mattel one. But I buy them only when they are CIB and in decent conditions. Same for the Intv Corp games that have different cartridge label caracter: I want them CIB! 

 

So, if I start collecting seriously manuals, I have to buy them CIB! All of them!!!

 

I would have to move in a bigger house, (I can not store my stuff in boxes), my wife would divorce, I’d have to pay very high monthly allowances, won’t see any more my kids, it would be a disaster…

 

So, to make it short, as soon as I’ll have completed the magic 125 I’ll start collecting manuals too!🤣🤠😎🤠🤪
