+cvga Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 A long long time ago, Imagic let you choose a free poster if you joined their "Numb Thumb" club. I remember joining as a kid and not getting my poster for months. Eventually my mom got involved (yeah Mom) and I got the poster. The poster is long gone. I don't even remember which one it was but I've acquired a couple of others over the years. Do you have any? If so, which ones? I'd also be interested in seeing a list of all the posters Imagic made. Lastly, if anyone wants to sell or trade theirs, I'd be highly highly highly interested!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Oberhäuser Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 The posters are awesome. I could see a complete (?) set at the CGE in 2001 and from there on they are on my want list.Haven't managed to get one yet :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Jentzsch Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Thomas, do you recall which one you have? On the front it says "Diesem Angriff werden sie nicht widerstehen" and displays a big Demon Attack bird on black background. On the back there are 6 other games listed.

He wins just about everything I try to win on ebay (Atari related.) He must be at the very least a millionaire. Sometimes I get lucky when he misses stuff (not often) and when he doesn't want something due to damage or multiple copies. I can usually predict what he is going to bid on about 98% of the time.

Zwackery Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 According to the Imagic catalog - http://www.atariage....4¤tPage=7 - there were 3 posters shown: Demon Attack Star Voyager Trick Shot The first 2 are easily the most popular, which should make Trick Shot the rarest, yet it tends to command the least money likely because of the game's lesser popularity compared with the first 2, particularly Demon Attack. The most recent auction went for a silly value, more than the posters have historically gone for. I was bidding until it got into ludicrous speed. "Holy shit, the auction went plaid!" I don't have any of them, but I'd like them. Maybe one day. And you could select more: http://www.atariage....4¤tPage=6 Atlantis Cosmic Ark Demon Attack Fire Fighter Riddle of the Sphinx Star voyager Trick Shot The next releases of the catalog show three different posters - http://www.atariage....¤tPage=17 - for club members: Cosmic Ark Fire Fighter Trick Shot I can't say I've ever seen these black versions before, so I'd mark them as being considerably rarer than the silver releases. And you could select more: http://www.atariage....¤tPage=18 Atari Atlantis Cosmic Ark Demon Attack Dragonfire Fire Fighter Riddle of the Sphinx Star voyager Trick Shot Mattel Atlantis Beauty & The Beast Demon Attack Dragonfire Microsurgeon Swords & Serpents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cvga Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 Thread from the dead. It's been more than 4 years and I'm still looking for Imagic posters. At least I've been able to add a few to my collection. I thought you might be interested in seeing them all in one picture... 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omegamatrix Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Very cool looking posters. They look sharp in the black frames. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
