Don’t Zak, the Slug 1 is so much nicer, I used to have quite a few Cave B1 posters including that… but I couldn’t put them up, too embarrassing, where as Slug 1 that is a great poster.

Slug 1 was printed on thicker/non glossy paper (easiest way to verify authenticity).

I got all excited thinking I could have been a real poster boy after all father! :awe: Zak soon **** on my chips though :problem:

I've always liked the ESP Ra.De. poster, I wish I hadn't sold on my original years back.

I have owned the B2 Slug 2 poster in the past, but the original arcade prints were B1.

Most Psikyo posters were A1 I think (Space Bomber was the exception at B1)

If it helps, I thought I had a real ESP Ra De poster, but after a bit of chat on here it was established that it’s almost certainly a repro.
Big, thick paper, but something was apparently off (size of the Cave logo maybe?? Can’t remember)

I know @Hursit does decent repros of the slug games. If we can convince him to do a prehistoric isle too :think:

Yes that’s a great poster and also my 1st and still favourite Cave SH3 pcb.

The Mushi poster is nice but it loses points for showing a disappointing game ;)

I prefer Futari, even have it up!

I particularly like the Gradius/Nemesis art but an original is well out of reach.

May get around to framing my Raiden DX soon. That one's stunning, if a little dry.

ESPRade never had a poster on release. CAVE printed a load of em years later and sold them online and at Matsuri events.

This thread...

I've been collecting posters for over 10 years but never had any of them on display. Realised I might sell 'em most likely. :(

I haven't been able to hang animu posters since I was like 15, agree it's embarassing to have people see, especially if it's big tittied anime characters or loli, which sadly is most everything. Deathsmiles and Muchi Pork are the worst offenders. Old school arcade B1 Sega, Capcom and SNK posters are great, I still have a few I hang like Sega Rally, JoJo's Venture and some Street Fighter stuff like 2nd Impact and Hyper Anniversary (not B1). Most of these I got buying/trading for arcade kits in the past and NCSX used to sell rolled posters too. I also have some Gamestop posters for the Halo and Gears games that are big as **** (bigger than B1) I used to have a friend who worked there trade me stuff they were taking down. I've always sold posters if I don't hang them or take them down, no point in hoarding tubes in my closet.

I also hang things with tacs and always have, enjoy those expensive custom frames which are just retarded for posters this size imo

Adult Male tits aye Alex is stacked, I'm okay with someone thinking I'm gay instead of a just a pedophil. Most of the characters in Cave games (or anime **** in general) are little kids. Reco from Mushi is 15, want to have a poster of her tits out for your adult friends and family seems legit :roll: Deathsmiles loli makes you even more special. At least put up some Ghost in the Shell Major Kusangi titties if that's your thing

I have a few old arcade posters, also some old movie posters. I think i saw people post about that too sometime earlier. Only repro's though, i don't fancy basically hanging money on my walls so i'm content with proper repro's. I guess that won't do if you're hardcore to the bone. Glad i'm not :awe:
