Sweet, can I use that picture there for the article so I don't have to take my own? Where'd you get the Rambo? I like the way you have them set up showing the differences. I can put the link to this thread on there so people can just come here and check it out.

Yeah, Stan, take what you need. I put these up for the site, so do what you want with them!
I posted about the Rambo in the "What You've Bought Recently" thread. Surprisingly, I didn't have to kill anyone for it. ;D

Congrats on getting them all, nice pictures. I'm still missing loads so if you find anymore drop me a PM  Feels great when you complete a set of games. Brazilian exclusives was a nice one to complete. Hopefully my next will be Portuguse purples when I get back to collecting again. |

Wow, nice work. That is a really nice set. It will be especially helpful for me in searching for re-releases. I haven't got started yet, but I have always wanted to and didn't know what each re-release looked like. Thanks for posting!

Man, isn't anyone reading my damn article?! Your article helps, but honestly, the re-release games are all over the map. Some are red, some have the ® and some don't, Ghostbusters doesn't have the "bold" spine like the rest, etc. As they say, a picture speaks a thousand words, and I think your article gives a great overview and context, but these pictures help put it all into perspective. |

Your article is cool, Stan, but when people need to quickly check for a variation, looking through a handful of images is much easier than reading some text. That's not to say your article is worthless; I know I've gotten at least one re-release from reading your stuff and I'm sure it has helped others.
Grolt: Nice work, dude. It's really great to see the re-releases next to the normal versions - that'll be invaluable when needing to quickly check games.
Also: I've just noticed that the image showing the front of the Out Runs is 404ing.

Congrats. Is that a full US set now then or is there a few variations left for you to chase? Those photo's are awesome, I'm sure they'll come in handy at some point |

Awesome set. I find it interesting how both the 2600 and SMS Ghostbusters have blue label re-releases.

Also: I've just noticed that the image showing the front of the Out Runs is 404ing. Thanks, brotha. Yeah, I don't know what's up with Image Shack, but occasionally it will just delete an image and 404. Weird. I've reupped them though, so all should be well. :) (That's why hosting these on the main site here would be beneficial.) Congrats. Is that a full US set now then or is there a few variations left for you to chase? Those photo's are awesome, I'm sure they'll come in handy at some point :) Well, for me the hardest part is over, but now it's just small variations that I really have no inclination to finish. The "SEGA For the 90's" sticker variations, the ®/TM/SM "Now there are no limits." games, the Canadian UPC releases and then the one sticker variation to rule them all, Sonic. I guess after I had Sonic and then maybe SEGA of America composite AV cables (if they even exist) then I could truly say I have the full complete set of released Master System merchandise in the States. Awesome set. I find it interesting how both the 2600 and SMS Ghostbusters have blue label re-releases. Heh, yeah. Ghostbusters was one of the toughest games to find, probably second to Rambo of all the re-releases, and so sometimes while doing searches I'd come across "Blue label" and "Ghostbusters" and it wouldn't be a Master System game. That's a pretty weird coincidence! |

You all must die. Hahaha, no, I know what you mean. I'll put these pictures on there and add some text about it so people have something to look at. Gro man, will these pictures forever be in this thread or do you have them somewhere temporary? I ask because I'll just put the big ones up and then have a link directly to this thread in case, should it ever happen, someone finds another or has a direct question about them. If you're going to scrap the pis, I better just save them and put them up, tedious though it would be.

If you're going to scrap the pis, I better just save them and put them up, tedious though it would be. I naturally have these stored and I won't delete them from Image Shack but they are not the most reliable storage solution. If it will make it easier I can send all the files in a zip to you so it would be easier to put them all on the site. |

Yeah, let's do that, I can just have a link pointing to the file for download and that way I don't have to waste page space with a million pictures. Anyone interested can just download the ZIP file.
