I don't know if you seen this yet: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/nes/916386-nes/faqs/49943

That documents all the sealed NES games our community has done so far.

Yeah, sure.

I saw it a couple of days ago. Great stuff!

Silver Surfer is not on the list, unfortunately.

No one has opened a factory sealed Solomon's Key and documented it. So nobody knows for certain what it contains.

Guessing it is the same with SIlver Surfer.

I can't find the correct inserts anywhere. So far I'm sure the Arcadia business reply and the Virgin Games foldout poster should be inside the box.

The contents you’ve posted are incorrect for a circle seal Solomon Key hangtab or not. It’s probably a good idea to take it down so there is no confusion. 

Deleting it as I type this.

What would the correct contents be for a non-hangtab, circle seal copy??

Not a problem.

Okay, I’ll let trifecta be the judge but I’m pretty sure he’s only looking for pictures of the games that have been confirmed and opened from new or a new game you may have just opened.

What would the correct insert be??

Was this opened from new? If this is a hangtab box the insert is incorrect.

Thank you for letting me know about that hangtab detail!

No, I didn't opened it from new.

Although I have researched the contents mainly on eBay before posting that photo.

I will delete it when a new Solomon's Key is opened and its contents are published here. Meanwhile, I reckon it would be a good idea to have my copy shown in this thread since nothing regarding that game was talked about 'round these parts.

What would the correct inserts be for a circle seal, non-hangtab copy of Solomon's Key??

I mean, besides the usual manual, consumer information booklet, player's guide offer and EA business reply.

I'm asking bc the game in itself was a promotional item for the new Beetle. So that tells me that maybe a special kind of insert was also used to advertise the car in some way.

For anyone interested.

I have my answer btw, My Beetle Adventure is complete!

Came with a dust cap too.  I opened one back in 1993.

Yeah, sure.

A dust cap for the cartridge. Luckily I have tons of those.

Had forgotten about them!

I would really like to know what originally came inside the box.

What the attached image shows plus a manual with a coloured frontcover is what my copy of the game has now.

My copy only has the box, manual, and cart. Doesn’t even have the cart tray!

On eBay you can buy new cartridge trays btw. They're reproductions.

But still. It's nice to have that option.

Or buy a cheap, CIB sports game on Whatnot or eBay and use only the og tray on your Beetle Adventure copy.

Yeah I used to go there every so often to play MTG. Good luck on your sticker hunt! I checked my Capcom games and sadly (and as expected) - no stickers here.

Thanks for checking, anyway!

How's A&C these days? I've not been there in a while, it's always seemed kinda pointless with their prices being marked up from ebay by like 25% or more. Are you also in TO?

They're doing great! Nice place to hang out. I bought the game on eBay. Not in TO, right now.

I've also bought from them a CIB Silver Surfer on NES with the Arcadia business reply insert.

First heard about the store thru Games Chasers on yt and that epic arm wrestling between Jay and one of the owners of A&C.

Also, doing an eBay search for "NES Mega man sticker" revealed a few items, even for sale, with stickers included, however, they are all used.  One lot had the sticker you're looking for stuck to a cartridge sleeve, and another had it stuck onto the cover of the manual for Mega Man 2. Even if that's not what you're looking for, there is a small percent of CIB items out there with unused stickers.  You'll find one, if you're patient.

Just saw it on Google, too! Sticker pasted onto the manual hahaha

Buy a sealed copy and open it

Bought SF 2010 a few days ago from A&C Games in Canada an almost CIB copy with the plastic still surrounding the box in places.

The only missing item is the sticker! So close.

Good luck. It's something that was only in some copies of some games. Most people used the stickers if they didn't throw them away along with warranty cards and promo pamphlets. You just have to keep your eye out.

Gee thanks! I'll put an alert on eBay.

At least from your photo I know the design of this sticker. First step accomplished.

Where can I buy it??

There are none on eBay.

I'm attaching photos of the Street Fighter game I'm talking about.

On the outside of that game's box it is announced the Mega Man sticker is included within.
