Topic: Castlevania collection

[Nagumo]

Has anyone ever heard of "Castlevania Bloodlines Official Game Secrets"? It's a guidebook released by Prima Games in 1994.

Hi everyone, long time without posting.

Update with all the new stuff I have found!





Also this is a link to the full PB album with up close shots of many games!

I think I have some stuff from a while back that I want to post soon. Haven't bought any CV stuff lately, since I've been focusing on decorating my game room downstairs. Almost done, though!

[TatteredSeraph]

Oh wow!  How did you get those pictures, LuxKiller?

[LuxKiller65]

Took it when I received the 2 frames

Finally took some pics. Several items are sealed. My sealed stuff are always up for trade but only for other CIB CV items. Namely the computer ports.

This has been a long time in the queue but I finally have close ups of 2 promo posters that Vampire Hunter B asked for.

Also wanted to note what an awesome user he is. Sold me a Saturn CV with the obi at a great price, then through in a nice little bonus AoS guide. Super cool dude.

I can get some more photos of these if requested.

Whew, it's been a while since I posted anything here. I haven't really picked up many CV items, since I've really been concentrating on my game room downstairs (which I may post pics in another thread someday, if anyone is interested...a whole lot of work went into it for the past 2 years). A few of these may be repeats of things I've shown before, since I can't remember when I picked up a few of the items I'm showing.

Ready? O-K.


This is actually the last picture I took, since I forgot to include it with everything else. I finally got a real copy of this, since I unwittingly bought an Ever Anime counterfeit copy years ago.





I bought these from an ebay auction, I believe it was from a seller on a fundraiser site. They were selling a bunch of these that Dave Cox signed, and for cheap, so I figured what the hell. I bought some generic frames and had some custom matting put into them. Now they're on the stairs going down to the basement, and my aforementioned game room.



I bought this monster from Konami's online store...I think it was only $8 (they threw in the socks too  ). I don't think I'll ever frame it though, because 1) I already have a bunch of Castlevania stuff on the game room walls, 2) A custom frame job for a big, odd-dimensioned poster like this would be crazy expensive, and 3) The blacks are really washed out on this print. It would be a great poster to display, but I'm just not willing to spend the money for the frame anytime soon.



I bought a shadowbox at Hobby Lobby to display some of my stuff. I'm kind of embarrassed with how it turned out. Some small shelves would be ideal for the items inside, but I had to do it with pushpins for now, which makes me a little nervous. The "choose-your-own-adventure" book in the middle was one of the most recent items I bought.



Some assorted stuff. I don't even remember buying a JP copy of Legends. I was just looking at some the other day online. The book in the top middle was thrown in with the choose your adventure book from earlier. So was a Judgment book that I have and forgot to include in the picture, but nobody really cares about Judgment anyway, so meh. And I finally replaced the chewed-up copy of Nintendo Power #2 I've had all these years.



That map that Bill Muldron did a while ago. One of my favorite unofficial CV items. That, and the Nintendo Power cover. Both for completely different reasons (the NP cover being a trainwreck of fantastic proportions, both for the game and for Nintendo).

I started to take pictures of my CV items and uploaded it to FB.
There are items still missing but I will update the gallery soon!

I was thinking of getting that map. Is it a good investment?

@Nevernamed that's a pretty nice collection. I didn't know they made CV batteries

[Lelygax]

Where they sell a map like that?

I was thinking of getting that map. Is it a good investment?

Definitely. It seems like a pretty good print, and I think it's 24x36 so it's easy to find a frame for it. One of my favorite things in my game room...that, and the neon lights. 

Where they sell a map like that?

Bill Mudron's site:

http://mudron.bigcartel.com/

He's got some other interesting posters, like the Zelda ones. Another cool site is Fro Design Co., the place where they have Mario propaganda posters...I bought the Boo House one. Took me forever to get...there was a shipping problem, but they made sure I got it.

[Lelygax]

Thanks JR, I've never been interested in posters because I never had a proper place for them, but this map is so cool, I will try to get one.
