Thanks fellas. I have a disease which I'd like to call "obsessive box condition disorder".
I collect model kits as well and if I come across a better shape box, the lesser condition one in my possession goes up for sale soon. Sometimes I wish I was less anal, less picky about my collectibles but at the same time I stay optimistic and appreciate what a fine collection I've amassed over the years.
*cheers*

Anyone know how rare this Japanese GPK VHS tape is? First time I've seen it and I am fortunate enough to own it ^_^

I'm back folks! Nothing new in my collection since other than a few empty box spares. I tracked down the gentleman who has Bloodshot Scott final art but my kidneys are too precious to sell for it. Hoping to stay more active here again and it's good to be back.

Game8 - Thank you sir. My collection pales many of the ones I've seen here but I'm glad I am able to share the finer pieces of my collection with the rest of you folks. I'm back folks! Nothing new in my collection since other than a few empty box spares. I tracked down the gentleman who has Bloodshot Scott final art but my kidneys are too precious to sell for it. Hoping to stay more active here again and it's good to be back. Welcome back caliagents. The only guy who's name used to describe mint condition GPK boxes. Is that box caliagents mint?   Cory, it's good to hear from you again. Flattered to know my handle has become synonymous with mint condition boxes!

Here is a somewhat recent acquisition: CaliAgents approved empty OS2 box! One thing I noticed about the OS1 and OS2 boxes is that they have three (3) perforation points along the length of the box. It seems as if Topps figured out how to produce them -OS3 and on- without needing additional perforations.  Here is a perfect example of what I am referring to as shown on the Ebay OS1 box:

Some items I don't believe I've shown yet although some of the sell sheets I've posted pics before. Nonetheless, here they are as one big happy family! OS1 box insert/point-of-sale display poster (immaculate condition):  All of my Topps dealer display sheets (one 2nd series not shown) well protected in Gerber Archival Mylar:  Does anyone know if these OS dealer display sheets existed for these series? -12th, 10th, 9th, 8th, 6th, 5th, 4th If one of you folks have a dealer display sheet that I don't already have, please let me know what else exists out there!

  It's hard to top these new boxes brothas! I grade them an unofficial 10 on the super-duper anal retentive CaliAgents grading scale.

Going back in time to grab some GPK boxes fresh off the factory floor probably isn't the best use of a time machine but its up there. They are so minty its makin me sick. Epic score.

Cory - thanks! They are definitely keepers.
tommy4ya - Hahaha, that's hilarious. There are hundreds of things I would do if I had access to a time machine. Visiting the Topps factory would definitely be up there! Thanks, glad to have these beauts in my collection.

What do you guys wager an excellent condition, unopened Cheap Toys Series 2 box would sell for if one were to pop up on the market?
The most difficult part in seeking out mint boxes for me is boxes that have not been pried open at the front lid flap. The moment one sticks their grubby fingers into that slot to pull open the lid, that front box section is guaranteed to be bowed out forever.
You can still open the boxes properly without prying open the front lid panel.

Yeowtch! Whenever one does pop up, please don't let the box be ultra-minty-fresh! Pretty please!
Is there a guesstimate as to how many full boxes might be floating around? I have yet to see one pop up for sale.
