Big Congrats on the one of kind material pickup !!

Love that Megaman X3 ad image. It is even better than the game box art. 

Wow those are pretty bad ass. Ya, talk about your non run of the mill collectable.

Great pieces man

Holy hell, were did you get a high quality image of that MMX3 ad!? I had no idea there was a full artwork image of it with with the magazine text. This would make a great poster.

Wow those are sweet! One of a kinds there!

Long Live, Blue Bomber !!!

These are transparencies used in the production process of making the ad.  A printer would take the image created by these slides and overlay the text and other elements provided by the design team to put the overall ad together.  Honestly it's a little embarrassing cause I'm a designer, but for as long as i've been doing this we've used computers so i don't know exactly how the process works.  Long story short, it's a picture of the original painting that someone used to make the ad.  That's also why it's super high resolution.

The picture that i posted is just the slides on a lightbox that i took with my phone, so once you zoom in the quality isn't great.  My office has high res scanners but no slide scanners.  I totally agree that it would be awesome to get a high res version of just the artwork, so let me look into jerryrigging something up with an ipad as a backlight or something.

If i can come up with a nice big version of that image i'll definitely share!

Sweet!

Very impressive

So i couldn't get the scanner here working, but i was able to take a better picture with my phone of just that slide.  It's not high res enough to print out on a plotter or something, but at 8.5x11 or even 11x17 it should look great

It's 4.2 megs so i'm linking to it rather than embedding it!

You did that with your phone? I am seriously in awe that you were able to capture that well. What am I doing wrong lol

And obviously - the image is kick ass! Congrats

Thanks! Yeah, i did it with just my phone. The trick is to get the backlighting right, i used a lightbox at my office. I'll send you a PM with more of the details.

That is an amazing collection indeed! A lot of games as well as a lot of merchandise.

I used to collect Mega Man/Rockman games mysekf. I still have all games and items, but i say "used to" because i havnt searched for any Mega Man/Rockman related stuff in a few years now.

If you're ever looking to unload anything, let me know!

(Plus you already know what i do and don't have)

I think you have pretty much everything (and more) than what i have Especially on the merchendise side, there you have tons of stuff. I hardly have any merchendise in comparison. If i have something that you dont have, i probably have just one copy of it (meaning that i cant sell it at this time). But i'll try to keep it in mind if i ever decide to sell my collection.

If you're interested, here is my collection:

http://www.capcom-unity.com/ninja...

This is about 6 years old, so i might have accuired some more stuff since then, but i believe these pictures shows at least about 95% of all that i have. I made this blog on Capcom-Unity.com back then since Capcom had a contest about the biggest Mega Man fans, and you could win a Mega Man 9 press kit. Unforunately i didnt win, but i have a accuired a Mega Man 9 press kit since then (i think i bought it from someone on Ebay if i remember correctly).

This person's collection is more than you
only "ROCKMAN"
