wonder what happened to the Gameline and GCP servers?

I recently purchased this complete in box Starpath Supercharger based on a telephone description only. The seller described it as a boxed supercharger with five sealed games. Rather than the normal sized box this example has a box 12 x 7.5 x 5 inches.

The items arrived all together but loose in a shipping box. The Supercharger box states the pack-in Phaser Patrol game is enclosed so I put the packing tray, Phaser Patrol game, Supercharger and document envelope inside the box and set it aside.

A day later I noticed that the five sealed games were the perfect size to also fit inside the Supercharger box. It seems possible this package originally contained boxed Starpath games 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, the supercharger and the Phaser Patrol game with documents. The box seems grossly large to contain just the small supercharger and Phaser Patrol game and docs envelope but the box only mentions Phaser Patrol.

The JerryG Guide (c.2001) is the only reference I've found which mentions this large box version of the Supercharger. It is described in the Guide as very rare and I would agree. We've never had an example like this in store inventory.

Can someone with a similar example confirm whether or not the box originally contained the five additional shrinkwrapped Starpath games?

Thanks,
