Just out of curiosity, ALL the japanese games that were initially released in carton boxes have also a corresponding 'plastic version'? Or there is some game available only in carton?

I believe that ASO II (Alpha Mission II) and Ghost Pilots had only carton box versions for JPN releases. NAM-75 came out both ways, but now I'm thinking that Blues Journey (JPN name Raguy) was also only cardboard box? Not sure.

Total list of cardboard boxed games:

NAM-75
Ghost Pilots
ASO II (Alpha Mission II)
Raguy (Blues Journey)

Was that it, or did I miss any? <IMG SRC="smilies/spock.gif" border="0">

I have a Nam '75 plastic, so it's both ways for sure.
Ghost Pilots and ASO II are probably carton only...
Not sure about Raguy and Sengoku...
Is there someone who has a japanese Sengoku or Raguy 'plastic'?!?
