Despite being as eager as ever to keep collecting, there really hasn't been much for me to buy recently. Luke Bespin items are becoming thin on the ground, and the only 4 tri logo's i need are ridiculously expensive :lol:

I did consider collecting loose or baggie figures, but fancied something a bit different, so I came up with this!
I was a MASSIVE fan of the SNES Star Wars games when they came out in the early 90's, and they helped me get back into the films and collecting in fact. I still play them on an emulator regularly, as they're great games.

So I was very pleased to find these on Ebay - mint condition, and still factory sealed!

What makes them really cool is that there are in fact a lot of variations - different countries, re-releases etc, all with different boxes. They are also relatively cheap, but not that easy to find so there's a bit of fun hunting them too.

So should hopefully keep me busy for a while! Although i'm not sure how easy it will be to find the rest still sealed!

yeah star wars is really hard because you cant save/password, and empire is just ridiculously hard. jedi is the easiest one.

I used to love the atari empire strikes back game where you had to destroy the at at walkers and they changed colour when you hit them, great grainy sound too

I used to love the snes - Mario Kart brings back some great memories and Legend of Zelda is probably the greatest game ever released!
