Pretty rare jacket, especially with the original letter, not sure if I've seen another letter for sale.

Nice!

I had one in my Star Fox Weekend Collection, and there's at least one more I know about.

Very cool, very rare, and very niche. It's a trifecta of awesomeness.

 

-------------------------

Got any of these for sale? Sell them to me. I also buy other NES Publisher inserts, and even GB/GBC, and SNES inserts too.

Out of curiousity, do you know who has the other letter right now? The reason I ask is I bought this off Ebay like maybe 7-10 years ago, so this might be the other letter you're aware of. Just curious

I do not, but it was definitely not this one, and certainly not mine.

I bought mine from Rick Bruns (I no longer have it, sold it to one of the three guys who own Bronty's old sticker sealed Mario) Yours was before mine. The third one I know of was sold on eBay about a few months after I sold mine off. I tried to win it and lost to another Star Fox Weekend collector.

Mine also included an apology letter for having the jacket being so delayed, and Rick Bruns couldn't confirm it or not but we both believe the bag he shipped it in was also the bag that Nintendo shipped it in.

The letter for this Jacket is among the rarest of the Star Fox Weekend items, even rarer than the apron, but not as rare as the Standee or promo material.

Not a bad price for one that includes the letter.

Boy I hope I convinced Archon to buy it. That dude loves jackets.
Edit: Oh no he was too late

Figured it would sell quickly. That letter is really what sells it.

Yup, that letter is awesome. Helps authenticate everything, as well.
