    Haha, I actually think I have most of these sealed in their blister packs.


    well you should finish that set, though it looks like someone is smokin crack about the peripherals for it, $425 bin? insane. maybe it'll end up being worthwhile in the long run.

  • You've gotta change the "Complete in Box Gameboy Set" award to be something crazy and animated.

    Maybe a wallet exploding



    Can't wait til you finish GBC too.

    I'll post which two once they arrive so as to not jinx anything.

    It's funny you mention selling - I've thought about it to be perfectly honest. Anyone want to buy a CIB Gameboy set??

    Ooooh, new bling!

    Great bling. Now where's the bling for having a US Turbografx hucard set?! : O

    How about an Odyssey 2 set!?

    But Dain, that's awesome you finally completed it.  Some of those boxes are incredibly scarce.  I saw the one auction that ended, but I thought you needed the manual too?  Do you have it all in your hands now?

  • Congrats on an awesome achievement! Personal bias says you should try TG16 next, as it can also be a CIB nightmare. Let me know if you need any help.
  • Congrats sir! I know you have been working hard on it for a long time. Enjoy it!

    ~~NGD
  • Congrats, your achievement is impressive
  • You get the last 2 games yet? You promised pictures
  • ^Haha, right before clicking on this thread I thought the same thing.

    Yep, the last two arrived. I'll try and get updated pics soon.

  • how many do you have in total?
  • You should throw a giant barbecue and party to celebrate the monumental achievement of completing this set. That's what I'd do if I complete my snes set!
  • The suspense is driving me crazy man! I wanna see some pics!

    I've made awards for TurboGrafx, TurboCD, Odyssey 2, and pretty much everything else.
    It's all a matter of when Dain has enough free time to bother updating things, lol.

  • A complete game boy collection consists of hundreds of unique titles. Somehow i get the impression that OP is refering to something else.
  • He actually posted a pic in the introductions section of the forums, here it is (hope you don't mind):

    He is referring to a CIB Game Boy collection of the US releases
