Oh darn why did you have to bump this...now I learn about something else I need to collect! Still need to complete my NP collection...having a heck of a time with that because condition is horrible on the ones I find...cards/posters always ripped out   I'm going for a set that still has them inside...impossible right?
I completed my NP collection last year.  My method was I would buy them in lots and that I would always strive for the most complete of any duplicates.  Then I would resell the ones that were less complete.  Condition is typically very low level on these magazines, as long as they were readable and have the cover attached I considered them checked off the list.  I know a lot of collectors out there wouldn't go for that though.

Here's a variant on the Posters Issue.  (-not my images-) (and if you care to find it )

NP Posters
 

I found a copy of one of the Zelda issues without the barcode on the cover: 

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Legend-of-Zelda-Nintendo-Power-Collectors-Special-Guide-10-Posters-18-Stickers-/121858546920?hash=item1c5f55dce8:g:kYkAAOSwYIhWjaxY

It makes me think that there are likely both Newstand and Subscriber versions of all of these, just like the later NP issues were.  It would appear that the newstand copies are easier to find though. 

I'd be interested to hear if anyone had a subscription at the time and could confirm getting them in the mail. ]]>

Oh yeah, very nice.  It makes me wonder if there are other cover variants for these or if the majority were Newstand exclusives like I assumed.

Those are interesting. I think it's funny Mario is on almost every cover.
haha Poor Luigi, at least he made it onto one cover!

Congrats, i had a real hard time finding Summer Games. Ill go thru my list to see if youre missing any. I think i am missing one actually aeeing your picture all at once is dope.
Awesome, Let me know!  Yeah, the Summer Games was one that I just randomly found on an eBay search.  The one: "Wii + DS Holiday Buyer's Guide" I found a picture of online over a year ago and had been looking for one since then and just finally got it last week!
