Hey! I'm making some miniature posters featuring my favorite old games to decorate my dorm room, but I need some higher-res images than I have access to. For example, a scan of the Gunstar Heroes (Japanese version)'s box front would be fantastic (esp. a scan with the plastic removed .. just the paper).. also any high-res images suitable for printing on, say, an 8.5x11" piece of photo paper would be a TREMENDOUS help.

I'd also like good scans from advertisements, flyers, real posters, etc., anything that'd make a good poster..
Also high-res advertisements for hardware-- MegaDrive, MegaCD, Genesis, Sega CD, Saturn, Famicom, Super Famicom, NES, SNES, Game Boy, Game Gear, Master System, 32x, maybe Dreamcast..

especially the following:

- Sonic the Hedgehog stuff (8-32 bit)
- Ecco the Dolphin stuff (8-16 bit)
- Gunstar Heroes stuff
- Kirby stuff
- Mario Bros. stuff (NES/SNES/Famicom/SFC/GB only)
- Duck Tales
- Chip'n'Dale Rescue Rangers
- Captain Skyhawk
- Guerilla War
- Rocket Knight Adventures / Sparkster
- GOOD Rockman/Megaman stuff (i.e. Japanese/anime style art, not the crappy stuff they put in Gamepro back in the day, etc.)

Arcade:
- System Flyers:
- MegaPlay
- Vs. System
- etc.

- Aero Fighters
- Armed Police Batrider
- Blazing Star
- Raiden I/II/DX
- GunBlade NY
- Sonic the Fighters
- SegaSonic Arcade
- LA Gunners
- DonPachi
- Do DonPachi
- Do DonPachi Dai-ou-jou
- ESP.Ra.De
- Guwange
- Dangun Feveron
- T-MEK
- Bust a Move / Puzzle Bobble series

Other stuff too. Thanks :D

I noticed that you have listed under the Misc section Warp-Warp, but theres no graphics except for the monsters/aliens, would you be interested in a marquee scan? I have the rock-ola Warp-Warp marquee, bezel and PCB and since its such an odd game, I feel obligated to help if you need it LOL

How Hi-res do you need?
I believe I put a post in your for sale post, but I rarely head to the buy and sell forum, so didn't check back.

Follow my link -- I've got a ton of flyers on my site in the bonus section. I'll be posting about 100 more Famicom ones in a month or so... just busy moving.

approx. 75%-100% the size of an 8.5x11 in. page preferably.. bigger is OK too. :)

I'm confused .. I went to "Gaijin Punch", and there is mention of a Famicom section, but I don't see one! It's nowhere to be found. o.o Am I missing something?

Nice large scans to work with.
