Different case colors

Hi,this is my little five cent .....I just dicovered these 2 case color variation that I never saw before:

1) Epoch Football Pro Bowl with a strange yellow case like the Baseball one instead of the standard white case:

I think it has to do with what country the games were released in... The white Epoch Football I believe was a Japanese release, the yellow was a U.S. release. I'm not sure which on is U.K. I don't think I've seen both colors released in the same market yet.

Concentration is probably the same thing, the all black one on my website is definitely a US release. The box with the white one even looks different, so I'm guessing that's either a foreign release from somewhere else, or an older/newer version maybe...

Yes but what puzzles me is why on the box there is pictured the white case.Generally it is the opposite ,different boxes for different markets but the game remains basicly the same.

I see you've found a black Space Echo too Alex!

Well done for winning that Pomcard 5. That was an excellent price! I'm kicking myself as I forgot to bid on it Sad

. I keep telling myself I probably wouldn't have won anyway. Can you put my mind at rest and tell me how much you bid for it. I'll be happy if I never stood a chance Wink

Thanks, Neil.

Hi Neil,well I shouldn't say this .....but not much,16,89 euros.I'm beginning to be picky(I don't know if it's a correct word).I'm focusing my attention right now on boxed and complete games ,that since I'm a newcomer I'm missing .Let me do some bragging please!I've just bought from finengeneer (John) the Bandai Pengo and the Bandai FL Tutankham that he was selling, and I just received these 2 beautiful Nintendo tabletops :

and

or this beautiful Bandai Parman:

or this Kenner Red Line:

http://www.webalice.it/claudia.alessandro/kenner_-_red_line.html

So the space for the "little fishes" is kinda shrinked.I'm too kicking myself because I forgot yesterday an auction ending at 18:00 with a NOS Bandai Gunfighter (ok not rare but in ship shape condition) in France that went sold for 13.00 euros! Damn it!
I'm pretty sure that on the echo game the big guns will show so I'm not going to put up that much of a fight,just like I did on those 2 Bandai little games that last night yagkwa...or whatever, bought.

Nice Mario and Snoopy! I don't even have those games boxed yet... Cool

Not that they are impossible to find, just usually more expensive than I'm motivated to spend...

WOW Rik !I thought you had ALL the games !!! Laughing

I'm giving credit to these tabletops!Actually they are out of what should be in my collection , but once you have one in your hand you can't stop staring them .They are really beautiful!And if you put one beside the other it is even more so! The screen and the music are too really beautiful If someone has the Popeye game boxed and complete and wants to sell it ,let me know please!
Ahh...... and I'm looking also for a Coleco Galaxian and a MS.Pacman too!! Wink

Ahhh!...I think I would have outbidded you Crying or Very sad

. I've been after one of those for ages too. If you ever win a boxed one, please let me know if you put this one on e-bay Wink

.

The word 'picky' is fine Wink

.

You've won some great games there! I'm especially jealous of that lovely Kenner, though the Parman would do me very nicely too.

Neil.
