Hey @Hybrid The Konami/Ultra things are beginning to gain steam in the higher end spectrum of the hobby so I think it’s worth tracking whether or not the label has any sign of label lift.

Also, someone said to me that the 5-screw Oddities all have Konami manufactured boards whereas the standard releases don’t. if there’s any validity to that then I think we have a solid way of tracking these things as legitimate.

I don't think it matters what board they had, since they can be swapped out at will, however you know very well that if Konami put a Konami board in there, there would DEFINIETLY be 5 screw cart backs with the printed 24 label on the back since they made their own labels for this.

So I've been lax lately in getting you new pics of some pickups. (I used spoiler screens to make this easier on the eyes for scrollers, open them up)

We will start with the N7 basketball variant

Here is Tiger Heli, an uncommon 5 screw but I also have a misprint copy with color print shift error (black)
The manual surprisingly also had a seal print shift error for the gold ink. (see pics)

Some Uncommon 3 screws, 2 variants of DK3 and an Urban Champion

And finally a Nintendo Switch Game! This Black Variant of Darksiders is the only real NSw variant I have seen other than the collectors editions and limited art covers devs/producers have don on purpose.

I’ve read through this post so many times...(Thanks by the way) Guess it’s the perfect time to post my variants. Just picked up Rc pro am from eBay the other day. Also found the Tecmo n7 on eBay back in November. The MM6 came from a reliable guy in 2017.

Nice, what’s the story behind rc pro am? That goes for anyone here. It was released in 1988 so is it a refurb? Is that the general consensus?

@Funky_brewsta can you open it up and take a picture of the board so we can see the dates?

I don't trust either the R.C. Pro-Am or the Capcom Mega Man 6 to be legitimate considering how those labels are pulling off.

@Stormarov.45someone tried to do a label swap on the mm before I got it. They got about halfway up and called it a day. The top half is almost perfect. The guy I got it from is trustworthy and deals with a lot with Brazilian games. Can’t see someone faking the rc pro am than selling it for $6. One has been authenticated by wata and also matches the other two known copies. I have nothing to gain by faking games and hope that’s not what you were suggesting.
