    oh there's no doubt. At the time the game came out, Jim Lee was a hot and relatively new artist and that issue of the comic book was recent as well (within the last year or two IIRC).. it would have been impossible for them not to be aware of that cover. WHy they did a redraw instead of just using the Jim Lee image is unclear to me, but its undeniably a redraw by a different hand.

    Not the same. Compare. The faces are one easy way to see the differences. The comic has much more shading on the face. There are differences everywhere though. https://comics.ha.com/itm/original-comic-art/jim-lee-wolverine-27-cover-original-art-marvel-1990-/a/7063-92014.s?ic4=GalleryView-Thumbnail-071515

    That's a Joe Jusko image from the cover of this GN:

    actually, no, the Wolverine is not the art from that cover. If you compare the drawings carefully you will see they are differences all over the drawings. It might be easier to see with the black and white art, I'll post a link to it later.

    Well there's no question about that. Its by Tom Dubois and I've spoken to him about the piece before. Its airbrush on illustration board rather than canvas, but same yeah, same difference.

    I wish! Most of the konami pieces are lost to the wind. I have a few but that's not one of them.

    I have wata copies of Friday the 13th NES for sale. A 9.6 white seal (cracked outer case is how it came to me from wata... its still in the heat sealed bag). Would benefit from a $15 reholder. $750 A 9.4 black seal as well. $375. Last 9.6 black seal sold for $1080 on heritage. I can pm pics if interested. thanks, Dan

    I think if the rest of the game is flawless it would get 85 no problem. Now, chances are there are other small flaws, so I think the likely result is 80+ or lower I agree, but not just because of that side creasing. As for wata, probably 8.5?
  9. Bronty
    lol that's probably about right

    Still, that’s a really good analogy. At little Samson cib prices why not just have a cib little Samson.
  11. Bronty
    yes and part of it is that its a 50% increment on what is already a high base. 66k can and should buy a real nice game. I had this 9.2 pegged at 75k, but even a 9.6 or 9.8 I see as topping out around 100k.
  12. Bronty
    That’s not my interpretation at all. Sealed SEs have always traded at a very low multiple to CIB. It’s the rarest cib and rarest loose game, but there are many sealed items just as rare as a sealed SE or even rarer, so in that arena it’s not as special. Still special just not the OMFGWTFBBQ item it is to the loose and cib guys
  13. Bronty
    Loose SEs have sold publicly for 10-15. No chance of getting a cib one for that. Cib would be 20-40 IMO

    I just assume he was full of shit. No one turns that down .

    Well, his net worth is supposedly under a billion if you trust the internet (I don’t when it comes to this kind of private information) but I agree with your point in that if he decided he wanted it it’s not worth his time to buy each of those individually, better to just write the check as 750k is a rounding error in his life. But at the same time, it’s a bit of insight into his mind as a collector (or at least his mind in 2014).
  16. Bronty
    That’s the one.
  17. Bronty
    Apparently he bought the biggest collection (according to guiness) in 2014 for 750k. 11000 titles but a looooot of drek . Way overpaid IMO
  18. Bronty
    No chance.

    My guess is it won't attract with strength, but I'll be interested to watch also. I saw something (on instagram maybe?) about heritage selling a few display items and mentioned it to Deniz (who's a big collector of that material) and it was news to him.
  20. Bronty
    That’s unfortunate but not surprising . Just so many loose copies of everything out there.
  21. Bronty
    You're right LOL I still think the sealed will go for more TBH. But it will be close. The CIB has got a shot.
  22. Bronty
    I mean, it’s a frickin CDI cover, lets not lose our minds I’m sure it will go four figures but it won’t go five.
  23. Bronty
    How is that even a question? You open up a 9.2 sealed and now you’ve probably got a 9.2 box, 9.4-9.8 cart, 9.4-9.8 manual. Meaning just taking the wrap off ‘upgrades ‘ it because now the other parts can bring up the average . Assuming the variant is the same there should be no question. Even if the variant is different there’s going to be a scarcity premium on the sealed
  24. Bronty
    Yeah exactly
  25. Bronty
    I think NS sales have been weak compared to counterparts. For example, HT NS 10 yd fight at heritage for 3-4 is by far the least any HT bb has gone for. If I recall a flipping HT section z went for more.
