Just boxes? Probably just as costly to get as the models themselves. At least I know I've bought a bunch of kits I already had just because I wanted the 2nd edition (72 version) box -- if you're patient, you can get the human kits for $20-$40 each. You'll be lucky to get the boxes for the sailback, armored dino or wooly mammoth for less than $150 each. The mammoth boxes are particularly fragile too.
What were you looking to pay?

Pay? Why as little as possible,of course! I understand that AURORA ephemera can be just as costly as the kit's plastic itself- but posting on this board of PS collectors I am hoping that someone had duplicates that they'd like to sell cheap or trade for something they might need which I have. So, you have any of these you're willing to part with?

Wish I could help, But I need all those you have listed except the armored. I actually have them all, but I need upgrades. All mine look pretty beat. First issue boxes seem to be a lot easier to get than second issue boxes. At least in any kind of decent shape.

Yeah, second edition boxes seem really rare, although less so for the humans than any other kits. I haven't even seen a Flying Reptile or Tar Pit 2nd ed.
I have all those boxes, but none that I want to part with, although some day I might get rid of some extras. If so, I'll give people here first shot at them, for sure.

I've never seen a 72 Tar Pit in person, but I have missed out on winning them on ebay twice. Last time was about 7 months ago. I bid like $140 for the boxed kit, and lost. (probably to someone in the UK that didn't have the currency conversion handicap that I did)

Speaking of boxes, I'm missing the 4 larger kits (WM, TYRAN, SPIKE and TRIKE) The one things that angers me is I had the Allo box, with the Saber leaping, and the C woman box and now they have disappeared.
