Answer Manitou System FS

[Plu]

Hello.
I am new on the site and was wondering if someone could help me value this bike, as I have no knowledge on the subject . It says "System FS" so I took that to be the model. I am not sure about the year, but it is definitely from the 90s... or late 80s.
Different parts have different brands:
Answer Manitou
Syncros
Shimano Deore LX
Easton VeriLite Program 7000 Alloy
Memoflex II
Scott
There´s a USA flag, so I believe it was made there :idea:

It is not in perfect condition in the sense that it has been stored and not used for many years, but I believe everything should work pretty well.

Is anyone able to say how much it can be worth?
I´ll appreciate any comment, hint, suggestion, etc.

Thanks in advance.

Here are some pictures:

Re:

If you loose some of the tat like the saddle etc you've got one of the most iconic bikes from the early 90's. I've got a bigger version of this model see link in signature.
If you turn if over on the bottom bracket will be a date probably around 1992.

The next thing to check for is cracks, the split around the joints and steerer/head tube real easy, a crack free one is obviously worth a lot more.

It looks to be a survivor, but we'll need better pics of the frame.

Some people wait a life time for a find like this......especially with a bitching saddle like that on a full suspension bike.

Thank you very much for your answers.
Thanks Retro Spud for your help. I am no bicycle expert, so it is very welcomed.
I did turn it over and it said: Answer Products Manitou FS0202 15-Jan-93 17
So you were right, almost 92.

Following your instructions, I found a crack on the headtube. Only there, but still...
Also, there is a crack on the plastic of the "brake display" (I lack the proper vocabulary)... you´ll see it in the pictures.
Other than that, and the fact that it is not cleaned and the tires are not inflated, I found no other sign of faults.

Here are some more pics for the experts:
