I bought a Car Adapter for my TurboExpress.  I was shipped to me inside the original NEC box from the factory.  Nice white box with a flip lid that held 4 Car Adapters at one time.  Nothing special about it, but it was cool to see it and it's in really good shape.

I have a couple of those shipping boxes too.  One for Turbo Express and one for the TE wall wart.

Is that an N64 game photobombing the OBEY?
Don't forget the Nobey controller at the bottom.   In all seriousness that is a pretty nice display.  I have a sweet number of 10 amazing boxes.  Most of my games from late 80's to mid 90's have been bought used, so most had no box bit at least had the case.  I would have 12 but I gave two away to forum members.  They are nice but I have no attachment to them.  They are boxes :lol:

I've got a bad case of the collectard. I think I have 65 TG game boxes and most of the hardware boxes.



Radio Shack called.  They want their display back.   :D
I'm busy playing pinball, but I still drop by to visit.

Radio Shack took the time to evenly space their boxes. (Burn)

 :lol: I need to cram another box in there.

LOve the display sadler, i got all anal about my stuff when it got stolen once.. ( luckily just ps1 stuff ).. so i dont have all of my stuff on display like that.. 1 c*nt ruined it all for me ... So unfortunately alot of my boxes lives in another box, which is probably nested in another box.. and i know i have a box of spare boxes .. :)

And there really is only one box i really want most of all and thats Sparkys keith courage and the magical chase he teased us with :)..  People think im a collectard for wanting nice boxes.. hmm f*ck em :)  i still like to keep the plastic bags that come/came with the video game mags i used to buy as a bid.. not because the plastic was worth anything, but because i'm f*cked in the head and like my stuff to be complete just like the day i bought it new :)

MAHOOBI IS DRUNK!

I love it!

nobody uses seven ellipses, four smilies, two f-bombs and a c-bomb to exclaim how much they want sparky's box (of which there are apparently two, which, if true, would be the start of a whole new genre of adult film).

Señor Mahoobi... amirite? :lol:

Oh how i wish i was drunk rather than being at work when writing that.. gives you some insight into my day.. :)  Office space the movie really comes to mind, i thought i went lite on the f bombs ..  and no doubt if sparky actually had two boxes he'd be a popular boy.. ermm umm Girl.. err She/he .. no He/She.. f*ck it, chick with a dick
