How is Commander Keen represented in MFGG?

HOLY GARG IT'S THE REAL DEAL!!!

I guess I should've expected that, considering that you said it's Goodbye Galaxy! I remember going to eBay years ago, seeing if anyone was selling Keen floppy disks, and I saw an Apogee box that contained a handful of games by them with Commander Keen included (Goodbye Galaxy, and maybe Invasion of the Vorticons too). The seller charged about $800 for it (so I didn't buy it)! A lot of the stuff I saw on eBay were repackages of the shareware games, usually with a screenshot on the cover. Apparently some came with hilariously bad box art, like the one shown below, but I didn't see any in my search:



I went to eBay just now out of curiosity, and lo and behold there are two copies of the original Goodbye Galaxy box (from GT Software) being sold! However, one is charged for nearly $2,300, and the other is $11,500. One of them has a picture of the box's back, which is the first time I've seen it:



There's also a big box copy of Aliens Ate My Babysitter being sold for about $1,500. I guess I can see the boxes being valuable (especially if it's still sealed), but dang, even the floppy disks are being charged for a few hundred dollars! Will the floppies even last for much longer? I heard that they last for about 30 years before succumbing to rot, but yet there are some old floppies that still work well so I'm not sure how true that statement is. I guess it depends on factors like storage and area temperature.
