Title says it all, show us what mystique was revealed in those boxes you purchased!   

You can post just a pic or you can post commentary on it as well (but please keep it tasteful).

Well, I have not bought any in quite awhile but to my memory:

Box from Stryphos contained:
Boxed Time Trax for SNES
A nice Mega Man strategy guide
Daytona USA for Saturn

Box from starwind contained:
A dozen SNES and NES commons that I didn't have
Mobile Light Force 2 for PS2
Fear Effect for PS1

That is just the best stuff that I remember, all of which is still in my collection. Well, except Time Trax since I already have it and don't collect boxes, so that went into my next box.

Since I have no friends, I am going to start buying mystery boxes all through out the year and wrapping them up. On Christmas, I will open them and have some mega reveal post, all the while creating a false since of overwhelming love.

Whoa crap. I love those black NES cases. Even as a kid I remember they go ripped up really easy, that one looks NOICE.

Don't worry... I pretty much do the same thing and I have a fiance. I buy myself little presents and our stockings. Mystery boxes would be like a legitimate adult Christmas. Do it!

I received my mystery box from Stryphos. Pretty cool stuff! Very happy with it.



Some CIB DS Games



Some mostly complete Advance games



Some really good games here!



And some misc. box and manuals and discs here.

My favorite thing here was Air Cavalry box - I've been off and on watching it on ebay for awhile now so was happy that was included. 2nd favorite item was R Types!

Thanks Stryphos!

 A box that you bid on, without knowing the items. We have them in our auction forum. Most people drop little hints about what’s inside.

If you want to recover a few bucks, send me some close ups of Hudesen hawk, the soccer game beside it and what are those last two games? Glare is blocking them.  That’s a solid box.
