What about the Astroboy GB Light? I've got one of them still sealed somewhere.

Also own a sealed copy which is packed away with other BNIB Nintendo handhelds. Many missing from my list are still sealed and tucked away. Bought an open copy 2 weeks ago which should be here this week coming. Will have photos of it added once it comes in.

Didn't know they had a Star Wows package.

I actually got the Link's Awakening package as my first Gameboy. Loved every minute of it. I also was lucky enough to snag one of those "brighter screen!" updated Gameboy Advance SP units. Those things really stand out. The only issue is, due to so very many ports of SNES games going through a "brightening" to work around issues with the original model, proper lighting makes those games look "washed out" in comparison. In fact, on any game that supports it (such as Link to the Past or Tactics Advance), I always adjust the software brightness setting to it's lowest point to make the colors show up better.

Updated with some new pictures. Was able to recently pick up two very nice systems, a GBP Imagineer and a GBA SP DK LE.

Final got an Imagineer system CIB. It was well worth the wait because it's in top condition and looks to have never been used.

Seeing all these cool pictures makes me wish Nintendo's current handhelds had something I actually wanted to play.

Have an on gowing topic here on NA of all the current gen standard release, limited, and variant Nintendo handhelds. Still managing to buy each one BNIB as they come out. Most recent release is the Animal Crossings 3DS. There are some good titles for 3DS floating around but guess that is subjective to your type of gaming. My reasoning for buying the new gen handhelds is a matter of keeping up with my collection. In all honesty 98% of my current gen collection is sealed.

Anyone that's able to add to the list please feel free to post your photos. Going to revamp the first post by adding members photos in a separate section under the main post. Next to each photo will be the members name and in the top main list members names will go next to the varaints they added. At this point only looking for pictures of variants not yet listed. Any help will be very much appreciated.

This was one of my least sought after handhelds because of its lack in variants. Do have some exclusive Japan ones worth mentioning like CoroCoro.
