There was also an insert for World Grand Prix hiding underneath Great Baseball, so I'm not sure what to think about that.... lol ;D Haha, I'm not even sure what to think of that, either! Don't know if I put it there at some point or if I got it that way. Let's just pretend I gave it to you because I knew you'd somehow put it to some incredibly good use? Glad you enjoyed the games though man, I didn't want to stop getting you games, your list was so epic haha! Me, I got two 32X games from the Santa Co-ordinator himself, Night Trap and Wrestlemania. Thanks to Prophet now I only need RBI Baseball, of all things, to complete the 32X set. Thanks a lot, man, the games were in great condition (Wrestlemania is sealed!) and a nice surprise!!! A blackhawks jersey? Pretty cool bonus! Would have been better if it was for a better team though.... like the Oilers.... lol

Would have been better if it was for a better team though.... like the Oilers.... lol I agree, atleast the part for a better team, like the Penguins Penguins and Oilers? Come on! Hawks are #1 in the league and playing far from their best. Toews, Kane, Hossa, Sharp with Keith and Seabrook on the blue line. That's talent! If Sid ever gets healthy maybe we'll talk about the Pens, and as for the Oilers, they need to draft some D-men who can compete to the level of their young forwards! And Prophet, you're the man! I opened up the Night Trap instruction manual to find to my surprise the early release blue manual for Transbot. I've just finished going through it comparing it to the official release one and both are so different. It was really cool to see, I've always wanted one of those. Professor Playor on one of the back pages was a real treat, too! Thanks a lot, man!

I was going to wrap it separately but I though that it'd be a nice master system surprise after you thought you were only getting 32x stuff. In hindsight, I probably should have left some clue so that you didn't have to wait another three days to find it . The bunny rabbit Professor Playor is my favorite part too. The Penguins are the worst. I couldn't agree more ;D. Go Capitals!

Just noticed he's in France, their mailing system is one of the worst in the world (no offence intended to any French people). It's not unusual for things to take 3 months to arrive, or get lost/stolen by postal workers. I never send or receive items from there for this reason, and you will notice that nearly all international retailers will either refuse to ship to France or demand EMS if they do. Italy is very much the same.

Italy is the same? That sucks as I just shipped Out Run 3D to someone in Italy as well...... arrrgggg.... hopefully that one arrives also.... I think part of the problem stems from the fact that some European countries have subcontracted the customs import duties to private contractors. In Italy the customs for incoming goods is handled by TNT and (being a private company) they extract every single Euro they can from every package no matter how small or inexpensive. This causes massive delays with freight and postage to Italy and a lot of angst for the population I imagine. If you ever need to send something to France or Italy again, especially if it's of significant value: Make sure you get a 'documents enclosed' packet (available from most newsagents or post offices) and stick four copies of a commercial invoice in it on the outside of the package. Make sure it has: - Shippers Name, address and phone number - Receivers Name, address and phone number - Value of goods in USD - Accurate description of goods - A statement like "does not contain any dangerous goods" is helpful Print 4 identical copies on A4 paper and fold/insert them in the packet with the words "commercial invoice" clearly visable. I wouldn't put "free gift" or crap like that - customs officers are generally not stupid (a pain in the arse, certainly - but not stupid). You will need to put this info on the customs form as well.

Nice stuff Tears of Opa-Opa. The alternative cover for Bart Vs the Space Mutants is pretty cool.
