I was cleaning up my spare bedroom and found these. I had long forgotten about them. I thought I had a full set but it looks like I am short a few. Either that or more are to be found somewhere in this mess.
Anyone know which ones I am missing? Russian Attack and Stinger? Is that it?

I remember sending in for one of those about 5 years after they stopped sending them out :)

Not completely unrelated, but I recall reading that Konami released games for the NES under the umbrella subsidiary 'Ultra'.
This was to get past some sort of Nintendo imposed game quota, as I recall.

I always wanted those, you're also missing goonies btw.
I do have an awesome megaman 3 poster I got from capcom years ago, got some megaman 2 stickers with it too for free.

Nintendo only allowed 3rd party companies to make 3 games a year iirc, so a lot of companies made subsidiary companies to realease more.

Dude, those are awesome. I've wanted one of those Castlevania ones for years.

I had the Goonies II one, so you're missing that one as well.
Cool stuff, love the CastleVania one.

Oh god, that Contra one...
Konami should totally make these again and sell them at stores. I'd buy the Contra one for sure.

Don't forget the Jackal poster...awesome art there too. Would go along nicely with my FDS "Jackal" flyer :)

Man, I wonder if I still have mine somewhere...
However, those Konami Centipede and Vaccum Cleaner toys are awesome. Would you sell them? ;)
