the remaining 10 videos are not even made yet so the next update will probably take a while.

Such an awesome collection, love it man.

If you ever get rid of that sonic 2 poster, please let me know. That game holds a very sentimental place in my heart from playing and beating it with my grandmother when i was a kid.

Keep updating, would love to see what else you get.

thanks man  


the promos come basically from “everywhere” like facebook groups,various forum members(including NA),ebay,yahoojapan,craigslist,friendly collectors,ebid,ricardo...etc.unfortunately,I dont have any funny stories to tell but here are still some infos about certain items:
 


the biggest issue so far was shipping the full size Maximo Ghosts to Glory standee(part 23) from the USA to Austria.the seller also had the original box which I wanted undamaged so he had to put it into another even bigger (and selfmade) box...the package was HUGE and we didnt know how to ship this thing overseas.but we finally found a way and everything worked  

most of the Sega promos come from a swedish Sega collector,who decided to sell his entire collection.fortunately,I could grab some nice things before everything was sold to someone else.
the Final Fantasy VII(part 1) and the Alundra posters(part 8) come from the same guy,a german collector.

all Resident Evil Code Veronica items(part 2) are from different people and it really took a while to find a japanese,american and european Code Veronica promo.the european one comes from the swedish guy.

the Metal Gear Solid 3 Banana poster(part 3) was once my personal favorite promotional item but now,its the Triumph flyer/miniposter(part 20).

I have some promos which I have never seen anywhere else but the rarest piece in my entire promo collection is probably the japanese Maximo postcard(part 23) because I am 99% sure that this is a one-of-a-kind item.
everything else in all videos still exists(or could probably still exist) multiple times somewhere in the world.
I am pretty sure that the Hudson Soft development cartridge(part 20) is also unique but I dont see it as a traditional promotional item so it "doesnt count".

the Christmas Nights into Dreams POP(part 40) is the first and only Saturn promo item I own.I was a PS1-kid back in the day and never cared about the Saturn.

thank you very much   I also love Sonic 2...countless childhood memories and my favorite Sonic game ever.I played it with my uncle when I was a kid.it was a little bit unfair because he always played as Tails.I still have some stuff left for updates and I am planning 51 parts total.

Have you seen the promotional material that Konami sales reps and other publishers used to market their NES/SNES games to the people in charge of purchasing at retail distributors?
