I don't collect completes since I left for college (barely enough room for cart-onlys), but the rarest box I had was Donkey Kong Jr. Math.  I snagged a buy it now on a complete for $19.99 at 4am one day.

I ended up getting dragon warrior IV and Ufouria for it.

funny thing about the dk math box although not easy to find it wasnt to hard to score for a decent price til the two newbies bid the one box up to 700.00 dollars from that point on everyone seems to think its the rarest box ever...of course neither bidder paid for the box

Cool topic.

You're probably right about dk math but it's certainly one of the coolest difficult boxes out there.

I don't think anyone will mind me bumping this topic back to the top. Since my previous list, my thoughts have changed and I have a new list hehehe:

1. Chubby Cherub
2. Power Blade 2
3. Pro Sport Hockey
4. Wayne's World
5. Jimmy Connor's Tennis
6. Sqoon
7. Mickey's Adv. in Numberland
8. Firehouse Rescue
9. Moon Ranger
10. Best of the Best

Mostly in that order. DK Jr Math, Race America, Clu Clu Land, Rockin Kats, Challenge of the Dragon, Bonk's Adventures, Secret Scout, Mission Cobra, and Menace Beach would probably come close to tying for the next hardest to find.

Also, when was the last Wayne's World box sold on ebay? That game is a pain to find complete. It's a pain to find just the manual and/or cart let alone the box.

Damn, Mickey's Adv. in Numberland box is that hard to find?  I saw a mib one in an auction or something on a European eBay not too long ago and just ignored it. 

By the way, how hard is it to find a box for Conan?

Not sure I agree with you on Chiller and Bandit Kings.  I have had 3 each of those without even looking really.  I still have a Chiller one in fact.  Everyone is leaving out the ungodly rare version of Athletic World that Dain picked up a few months back.  I have only seen it for sale ever twice.

I have both of those as well, but I had trouble finding a minty chiller box for some reason. it seemed like they had all been cutout to fit into cases or were in absolutely terrible condition. bandit kings was kind of difficult for me as well, not sure how rare it is exactly though. i would agree those are the two easiest to find of my personal 10 though.

Huh, another green Color Dreams cart. Interesting. This is the second one I've seen that exact same color this week. But it doesn't really look to be due to discoloration or anything.

well, here is my list as of right now in no particular order.

Color a Dinosaur
Waynes World
Chubby Cherub
Wacky Races
Pro Sport Hockey
Alfred Chicken
Chip n Dale 2
Sqoon
Rad Racket
Dusty Diamond

I wanted to put Bonk's, TMNT tourney fighters, and little samson on the list but I think if any of them would show up mint right now they would all break the $100 barrier on ebay.
