Finally.

Completed my bugger-to-find US GB Megaman collection in one fell swoop on ebay, moments ago (and a sub 2 sec. snipe, I might add

):

I think I already have 1 & 2, but they don't have instructions or they are re-releases (you can tell by the little "players choice!" ribbon or whatever the crap they say on them). These are all complete original releases. Juice. Rest, ud, yes, rest...

A holy grail of Mega Man collections if I ever saw one. I salute you sir!

Oh, you don't even know the half, FRO

I've been holding out on taking photo's of my collection, as I've been in the (long) process of scanning all the boxes, but I may just break down and flaunt

For the most part, the main stuff I'm missing is EUR stuff, which sadly, the later stuff (Megaman 5 GB, SNES X2, X3) wasn't even distributed by Capcom EUR. It was picked up by some co called Laguna, or something, and they just copied the US boxes and slapped their big ugly "Laguna" logo on them. I want them for collection purposes, but other than that, they are shameful

Moving right along...

Finding 4 and 5 was so hard, that's why I held out for the GBA MM Collection. Too bad that got canceled.

Congrats on your acquisition.

I don't even remember ever seeing a copy of MMV in stores...

One second to the end. Bet blackfireconvoy was pissed.

Nice set though.

That was finally officially cancelled? It was in limbo for a year and a half last I heard (but basically...yeah).

Such a shame. That could've been fun.

It still has a release date for Feb. 15 at GameStop.com.

Cool! Post some other pics of your collection!

btw, I have Laguna MMX2... yeah, basically the same as the US one.

Excellent dude, I managed to snag MM2 Gameboy from Gamestop, it was too bad it was cart only, and only the second MM game I own, the other being MM 8 PSX.

I'll sooner or later either try to track down the PS 2 MM Collection (my friend owns it, bought it for 5 bucks complete from EB, bastard won't sell it to me) hopefully I have some luck in doing so.

Nice haul you have there ^_^
On a similar note... SuperFami Japanese colection ^_^

Not a huge fan of Megaman myself, but I'd get this set just for Rockman and Forte.

I have played through every GB MM but 5. Used to borrow MM2 from a friend and rented the first a lot. They are all solid. I really like how they mix bosses from the next game (ie: MM 1 has bosses from MM 2, MM3 has bosses from MM IV and so on)

But I still only own 3 and 4 so....hurry up and release the GBA MM collection already, Capcom! IGN's profile for the cart still says "TBA 2005." Gahhhh.

edit: Oh and re: Icarus's post, wow. Japanese artwork vs. U.S. as always...just. Wow. Very nice.
