Hey guys!  I guess this post is for those that are either going for or have already went for a complete 7800 collection, including variations.  I'm curious if other's have had as much trouble as I've had locating the RealSports Baseball box with black lettering?  I've been looking for the box for over a year, the cart was hard enough to find but the box was extremely hard for me to locate.  I finally found one recently right here in the AA Marketplace and it's still sealed.  I've been looking on ebay for over a year with no luck.  So, how many of you guys have the box with black letters?  And, did it take you as much effort and time as it took me?  Thanks for any thoughts and replies about this 7800 variation.

Now that I'm thinking about it, I wonder if the box with black letters has the cart with black letters inside.  I'm assuming it would but I guess the only way to find out for sure is to open it up.  I'm not much into sealed games so I just may do it, then again, I'm not sure I could bring myself to unseal a game I've been looking so long for.

Here's pics of my two Baseball's:

Is the label upside down on one of those carts?

No, they are both the regular way.  Why, does it look like it is?

No, I couldn't tell from the pictures. It's just that several of the RS Baseball carts with black lettering that I have seen have upside down labels.

Now I'll be on the lookout for one of those for my variation collection.  Thanks for the info.

Anyone else have the black lettering box?  I'm just interested to know how hard it is to find since it took me so long.  Anyone have anything to add?  Thanks again for looking!

I thought I'd bump this, really curious if the hardcore 7800 collectors have the black lettering box and/or cart for this Baseball. I just found out about the Tower Toppler variation and posted that so thought this would be good to have posted near it. Thanks for any replies!
