Pictures of my Tenchisouzou/Illusion of Gaia collection. :3

I was bored, so I figured i'd take pictures of my Terranigma/Illusion of Gaia collection, just for TE members here. =D

There are no Soul Blader items yet, and a few items I still don't have are missing overall (namely the rare Tenchisouzou soundtrack CD, among others), but I have most of what I wanted. The pictures aren't that great because I don't have a real camera and used my webcam, so. I listed everything.

Tenchisouzou Poster

This is a japanese promo poster that you would win if you sent away for it in a small paper you would fill out included with the japanese Tenchisouzou CD. It cost around 3000yen (I think that's around $30 US, not including all the shipping/international fees, since I bought it on yahoo japan auctions, where most of my collection was bought, besides ebay.)

From top left:

Terranigma SUPER NES (PAL, French, Included guide)
Illusion of Time SUPER NES (PAL, French, included guide)
Illusion of Gaia SNES (US release)
Gaia Gensouki Famicom (includes manual)
Tenchisouzou Famicom (includes manual)
Illusion of Time Le Guide de L' Explorateur - Official Nintendo Explorer Guide (included with game)
Terranigma Le Guide Officiel Nintendo Guide (included with game)
Nintendo Power Issue #65 (Illusion of Gaia is the cover story)
Tenchisouzou World Atlas (Japanese)
Tenchisouzou Koshiki Nintendo Guidebook (Offiicial Guidebook)
Gaia Gensouki Koshiki Nintendo Guidebook (Offiicial Guidebook)

I'd like to see everyone else's Terranigma/IOG/SB collections, too!

Whoa, no fair, it puts me to such shame! I have that Nintendo Power #65 with Freedan on the cover. Besides that, all I have are a Soul Blazer cart, and the full Illusion of Gaia box, with manual and the map that has monster stats on the reverse.

Tay just has Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia, the Nintendo Power issue, and the color IoG map.

I want the IoG OST most of all.

As far as I know, there is no illusion of gaia OST, just a Terranigma and Soul Blader one.

Or is there? i've never seen a picture of it, and i've been collecting for years.

Nope, no official IoG soundtrack.

Just for Soul Blazer and Terranigma.

I made my own Terranigma poster by sending a high-res picture to a poster-printing company^^

Ah, but indeed there is, kweeny.

Nintendo Power offered it to subscribers as part of their Power Catalog in late '94 alongside a T-Shirt (which was different from the one that came with the game), and a porcelain coffee mug.

I'll try to find the order form and post scans of it. I'm not sure if I still have it though...

OOOH!

I never knew of this. I saw the T-shirt though, and the mug. I'd like to see scans! :3

Yeah, but Nintendo Power also had a contest for which the winner got to be in extra in The Mask 2 starring Jim Carrey, which ended up never existing, so my trust in that is limited.

Well, there's a difference between a Contest and a Catalog...

Which is really strange, since no Japanese version has ever surfaced or been mentioned. So I have to wonder how they got a soundtrack when there was no official Japanese soundtrack.

Well, they're nintendo. They has the way.

Well, Nintendo Power did put together the NTSC Instruction Booklet.

They had a fair amount of involvement in the localization of the game, so that's probably why.
