i got this in NC from a game store wile i was over there for a metal detox treatment.  and had it shipped back to me in CA.  it got a bit of battle dammage  on the corner which also dented the power pad box too due to poor packing and rough shipping.  luckly it was pretty minor considering the shipping box was thrashed but i wasnt very happy about it  cause it was nearly perfect in condition other than a missing poster and a few plastics bags.  i repacked it as best i could  to how it would have been from the factory.   as of now i have nearly all the nintendo sets  only one im missing is the challange set    tbh the  complete in box nes sets sould have its own badge if you manage to get them all.

so anyways that my big find for now  

Small update i got an insurance claim started for this since i had it insured for 200 dollars  so i will see how that goes...  also i thought id show you what i have so far.  most are near mint excluding the controll deck.  sad store on that.  i got it perfect condition but i left a plastic pull out drawer  oped like half way and the nes box was sitting below it and forgot about it  a few days later it must have  slowly slid out  and the fell on the boxed nes below  ripping the box...  i shaped it back together with some glue but it will never been the same...  one day i'll replace it.

the top loader,  sports, power, and action set have all their plastics  and paper work.  i found some extras i had laying around to complete the power set.

Awesome score! Bummer about the shipping damage, but it still looks great!

Looks really nice!  Which sets do you have?  Just curious which you consider as all of them.  It's hard to nail down with variants and store pack-ins.

That doesn't really clear things up.  There are zapper color variations, red stripe variations, 3 different deluxe sets, sports set that says "new" on the box, like 4 or 5 different basic sets, 3 or more different ways the challenge set was packaged, store pack-ins for the top loader. 

That's what I can think of off of the top of my head, probably missing some.

I think he's looking it from a configuration standpoint rather than variants that have minor differences. Such as all the action sets counted as one, rather than differences in Zapper color.

Though I think the pack-in games are enough of a difference to consider them separate.

Deluxe Set
Deluxe Set w/Stack-up
Control Deck (no game)
Control Deck (w/SMB)
Control Deck (w/Player's Guide)
Action Set
Power Set
Sports Set
Challenge Set
Toploader
Toploader (w/pack-ins, I forget what all there were.)

Any others?

We all collect however we like.   To me, the different pack-in games make for a bigger difference than packaging artwork or Zapper colors.
