[Mason P.]

I was wondering If anybody had one? I have searched Yahoo and can't seem to find one.Has anybody even made one? I would perfer it to have thumnail picks of each cover with issue number. If anybody knows where to find one I would love you forever :D.

Ok, I took out my storage container with my mags in and pulled out my 2 Issue 92s that I have.

Apparently there are 4 Issue 92 covers in all.

They are...

Boba Fett - 25% of total covers issued
Storm Trooper - 40% of total covers issued
Dash Rendar - 25% of total covers issued
IG-88 - 10% of total covers issued

Apparently IG-88 is the rarest and was only sent to NP subscribers and not all of them....only a random select few, making it the hardest of the 4 to find. I'm glad I bought 90+ NPs of a subscriber for $0.10 a piece and they got it with their subscription, or I may have never gotten it.

I currently have Boba Fett and IG-88. I'm working on a deal now for Storm Trooper, so, anyone with Dash Rendar, let me know....Once I get these 2 missing issues + issue 200 when it is released I will be taking pics of the whole set set out in order.

Also, does anyone know of any other issues that had multiple covers. Now that I have one of every issue I want to get any variants.

[8bitnes]

There are two different version of issue #1. One says something like "1st issue ..." the other says something like "free poster inside"

damn...now i have to look at which one i have and get the other...

that makes 3 that i dont have....at least one should be in the mail tomorrow



.....any other known variants?

[8bitnes]

.....any other known variants?

One would have to assume so, especially since there is the subscriber vs. newstand possibility 200 times over. I imagine that once you take your picture(s), enough of us here will review our own collections for differences. Good luck.

Thanks for the start. I have been searching the net and can't find a checklist that has the cover game on it.
For example:

[] July/August 88 - Super Mario 2
[] September/October 88 - Castlevania II
[] November/December 88- Track and Filed II


and so forth. I am putting one together I just have to find all the cover images. If you know what is on what cover let me know

thanks alot!!! what is great is there in order :D
I will get this list done and maybe they can put on DP for people to download if they want to start collecting them.
I just started so a list is really going to help me out.

[Mason P.]

does anybody know what the character names of the guys on the 4 covers of issues 177? The final fantasy Cyrstal Cronicles one? for example; issue 92 had:

92 - Star Wars IG-88
92 - Star Wars Stormtrooper
92 - Star Wars Dash Rendar
92 - Star Wars Boba Fett

[Mason P.]

other than the 92, 177 issues were there any other cover variants?

I thought issue 68 had a '95 cover and a batman& Robbin cover?

I heard Issue 50 had 2 covers one being Zelda:links Awaking with the Owl on the cover.

Did issue 56 have a foil and non-foil version. I have seen both on ebay.

[tholly]

issues 140 & 152....the two that i have that look like the cover is missing....those are subscribers covers glued over the regular cover...making the newstand cover really the next page in the mag.....newstand versions of those two exist without the added cover....

[Mason P.]

so would you count those as variants?

im not sure....i havent decided yet...

Looks like this is a variant you don't have. It's Vol. 126 with Donkey Kong 64 on the cover. There was the one with the special cover that got sent to NP subscribers (the one that you have) and the one that was available on the newstand...this one.

the special cover is just an addon glued over that cover......so, under the cover in my collection is that cover, but i would still like to get the newstand version without the extra cover...

Really? The cover on my vol. 126 under the special cover looks completely different. You might want to check your copy of the magazine again...unless you have some different variant that I wasn't aware of.

I'm actually working on this right now. I should have it completed and up for referencing / viewing very soon. Thus far I have articles for all 213 issues of Nintendo Power from Jul-Aug 1988 to Present Day.

I'm in the process now of uploading all the covers, these will not be complete full magazine scans, as I do not believe in that. This is for nostalgia and reference only, and therefore I am only providing the covers, fold out posters, and maps from each issue, in addition to a detailed Table of Content and synopsis of special features in each issue.

I've been working on this for going on three months now, and I hope to have the Nintendo Power section completed soon. Once I have all the base work finished, I'd love to have some of you check it out and give your personal expertise on each article if you have something to add. Meanwhile feel free to check out the coming soon page at www.theconsoler.com.

I'm trying to complete my run of NP, and I was wondering if there's a checklist of special issues out there. I currently have
-Pocket Power
-Classified Information
-Pak Source
-Nintendo Power Advance Vol. 1
-Nintendo Power Advance Vol. 2
-Nintendo Power Advance Vol. 3
-Nintendo Power Advance Vol. 4
-20 Years of Nintendo Power
-The Official Guide to Mario
-The Official Guide to Mario 2nd Edition
-The Official Guide to The Legend of Zelda
-Nintendo Power Summer Games Special 2009
-Nintendo Power Poster Book 2009
-Nintendo Gaming Super Stars

I'm pretty sure Classified Information and Pak Source came in older issues of NP, but they came separate in the collection I bought, so I'm not too sure. Anyway, is there anything I'm missing? Thanks!
