There seems to be a rise in interest for Playchoice toppers lately. Most Playchoice collectors are familiar with the awesome PAR site for PC restoration, http://www.playchoice.riemen.net/index.php. On the site there is a game list that includes pics for most of the toppers, http://www.playchoice.riemen.net/pc10_list.html, however there are a few pics missing for some games. I thought that maybe some of us could fill in the blanks for the missing pics.
Games missing topper pics are:
Balloon Fight
Baseball
Duck Hunt
Excitebike
Golf
Hogans Alley
Mario Bros
Ninja Gaiden 3
Nintendo World Cup
Power Blade
Rockin' Kats
Shatterhand
Tennis
Wild Gunman

I am pretty sure that there are no toppers for the shooters and the older games, but hopefully someone can prove me wrong. I did recently open a sealed NOS Golf box (thanks nocashvalue!), and it had nothing but the game inside which leads me to believe that the older games did not have any.

Here is my recently acquired contribution (thanks donnyjj2005!):

Haha.... I was thinking about that as I posted it. I have since cleaned it up, but I had to show it off as soon as I opened it. Aside from the prints it really was in perfect condition and nicely packaged with all of the contents of the NOS box (minus the game, of course).
 
I've got a Rockin Kats and I have seen a Power Blade so they exist. Everything else has not been proven to exist.

The picture I saw of Power Blade is long gone it was on a cab on Kijiji in Canada

My brain tells me I have seen a Tennis topper. Although it could be the years of booze or the knocks to the head, but it is pretty convinced it remembers seeing one.

Well the PAR site has the "faux marquee" images, which may be what you are thinking of. There is a similar image for Golf too, but after opening the sealed NOS box I am convinced that it does not exist.
I know I have seen toppers for Balloon Fight and Power Blade, but hopefully we can get some pics.
 
I recently saw a Balloon Fight Topper. That one most assuredly exists!

Both Left Brain and Right Brain agree, both also want a Buffalo Chicken Sandwich.
 
I have Mario Golf and World Cup Soccer, will take pics if you still need them.
Edit: Ha, you need neither. And for different reasons. Good luck!
