Saw this linked on N-Philes.com. The boxed Gameboys alone make it seem pretty worthwhile, but the Famicom seems pretty expensive. I've actually been looking for a cheap boxed/complete Gameboy for a while. Only thing stopping me from getting these is that they're Hong Kong language packaging.
The Super Mario Bros. capsule toy keychains are pretty damn sweet too, but I think it's all random what you get when you order those kinds of things. Oh well, hopefully someone likes this stuff!
Text from the page:
Nintendo's distributor in Hong Kong has moved their warehouse to a bigger premise during the last couple of months. Surprisingly, while preparing the transit, several goods from the nineties have been found in the corner of the location (!). Not knowing what to do with these oldies in mint condition, the company has contacted Lik Sang for help. We happily accepted the goods, which are now available in our Classics section.
First of, several piles of consoles have been discovered, and we have collected today a couple of dozens of boxed Super Famicom systems, as well as a hundred of Gameboy systems (the original black and white edition). Most of the Gameboys come in their original retro colors, which should please a few collectors out there. Definitely a nice piece of glorious gaming history to add to your museum. The Super Famicom comes with an official controller, the appropriate AV cable and a 100-250 V Power Supply (UK plug). The box is brand new and everything inside is untouched, still concealed in factory plastic bags.
