I don't think there's anything like this for them. There's http://www.world-of-arcades.net/Cave/cave.htm and you could search the mame artwork database.

A while back I was able to secure the final Toresetsu for a complete collection!

Here is what it looks like:

Anyone got a Ibara and Dodonpachi Toresetsu they'd be willing to sell? :oops:

A question for the most hardcore Cave fans here, I guess - Is it confirmed that there never existed regular flyers of Esprade? I've never ever seen anything else than this:

Instruction cards and the poster. But I mean actual flyers which often aren't included with the PCB kit, like these:

I don't think it exists and i've looked for years. Not sure why as all the other cave games around that time have them. Even freaking uo poko has a flyer.

There exists an official flyer for Esprade, it's just very rare.

The mini poster with some red Japanese writing on it and phone numbers at the bottom, reverse side is how to play IIRC.

That's quite a revelation but gives sense to the whole thing since a company like Atlus not making flyers for an arcade game was just unthinkable, thks.

I guess we won't ever see them online properly scanned as even half the instruction cards aren't to this day, but at least more people know it now.

Also got the mini-poster at good rez, though it's the blue logo version which I guess most people have, in case anyone wants me to upload it.

According to the official index Esp-Ra-De has:

- PCB
- Settings Sheet (monochrome)
- Instruction Sheets (full color, 2 small)
- Box

Settings sheet is blue but...

Feel free to share the mini-poster, never heard about it :)

Not my scan. And seems there was a maxi version as well.

So what about everything in the pics I posted? There're clearly more than a couple of instruction sheets.

Thank you, the pictures you posted seem to be some kind of custom remakes. You can buy them here:

edit:
It looks like the eBay images are based of the EspRaDe Toresetsu.

I think you're right? Isn't even this art piece exclusive to M2's Psi?

Never thought anybody could get high rez art for those side cards with the characters. Damn.

It seems the OP's links are no longer working..

Is there anyone with these that can make them available again?

Also @rtw your site seems to be having issues with the images and download links

I can see if I can post a link to an archive later.

Nothing wrong with the site, search engines have a tendency pf prepending https:// but the site is strictly http://

I have obtained physical originals of both and will have them scanned at 600 DPI by a local print shop as soon as I get them in my hands

Thanks so much for these! Any chance you also have copies of DFK BL, Akai Katana, or SDOJ? I noticed those weren't included and I'm still trying to track down scans. Thanks again!
