Quick poll to see what region the Hyper64 kits that people own are from. It seems that you don't see many US/English kits on here, they are mostly Japanese kits.

I personally own all 4 fighting games in Japanese region (3 of which are full kits) and have FF:WA and Buriki in full English kit form.

I have never even been able to find a picture of an English SSWR kit. Can anyone confirm that they exist, and if so, was a large marquee ever made?

Aye, I've got a couple of the SS64 marquees. I didn't think there was one for WR.

It's a mixed bag but we all thought they were all JP kits since the Hyper failed in Japan so I was never expecting to see English Hyper kits.

Well here's the thing, I have an English copy of SS64WR with an English manual and a complete set of English move stickers. It's not a complete kit though, as it's missing the poster and box/baggie.

Where did it come from? Was there an English kit made for this game but it just didn't have a large marquee? Were these available outside of a complete kit or shipped in a JP kit box?

I'm trying to find complete SS64 and SS64WR English kits.

So I found a couple pictures of SS64:WR complete English kits, serial numbers 0119 and 0121. Interestingly enough my partial English kit is 0127.

Now I know this isn't enough data to conclusively determine this, but could it be that the low numbers are English kits, with only Japanese kits appearing after a certain point? I've heard that serials as low as the 0400s for this game are Japanese. Can anyone confirm or deny this theory?
