After searching ebay every day for the last 5 months ive come to realize that the boxes to nes games sqoon,chubby cherub and conan are very hard to find. Although a lot more expensive even the box for myriad,caltron,bubble bobble 2, and cheetahmen 2 ,susprise at dinosaur peak and the paninesians complete seem to come up more often..Ive only seen conan complete once in a big lot and there is a sqoon but the top is missing from the box. Chubby cherub i have yet to see..the only other box that hardly ever shows up is challenge of the dragon. If anyone would ever see any of the three and werent planning on bidding on them theirselves please give me a pm..

Theme Park for the Genesis is kind of like that.  I am sure it is not as rare as the game you mention but the box and manual for Theme Park is a pain to find.

Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance Not For Resale Promotional copy for Xbox.

Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 goes thru highs and lows too.
Always hard to find a CIB copy though.
Not to mention variations for it.

I'll keep an out for you, man.  I lucked out and found Conan complete at goodwill for $2.  I didn't know it was that hard of a game/box to find.

World Series Baseball for 32x.  I've seen it ranked no higher than a 5, and there is usually only one copy of it on Ebay a month, and it has been going for well over $50 every time.  The last one I saw ended around $80.  I kick myself when I think that two years ago this was regularly going for less than $20.

One copy a month to me is not all that rare. Not common but not rare either.

One copy a month = keeping a good demand for a decent supply.
