Most of my collection is print material, and tonnes of it. I know not a lot of people are into print material but it is interesting and definitely hard to find and collect. I’ve been at it for years. And as a note nothing here is a copy from the anything on the net! :oops:

Here are all my ads, promotional contests, ads for print, etc
These are the best shots I could get of the slides, they look really fresh when over a light source. Does anyone know what they use these for? And is there anything I could do with them?

A whole bunch of letters to a broadcasting company telling them how to promote thundercats on their station
I did my best to give you a good look without filling the next 20 pages. :oops: Theres a lot of paper and stuff here, enough for 7 binders full. Ask me any questions if you have em. :tygra:
Delicious stuff you have, Adam! It’s wonderful when a fellow T-Cat fan has new things to share with us. Like Kyle, I most enjoy the artwork and behind-the-scenes concepts. (The Sword of Omens as a galatic weather station and a portable X-ray machine? Who knew? :D) I’d love to read those letters instructing that TV broadcasting company on how to promote ThunderCats on their stations. Oh, the secrets I can learn! :cheetaraveryhappy:
Wow, an unproduced ThunderCats script! That’s another thing I’d love to read. It should be archived here on TCL; it’s a rare find. Perhaps somebody can make an e-comic out of it? :cheetaraveryhappy:
I love those cels of Cheetara and Panthro. The way you have them arranged, you make it look like Cheetara got a little too close to Panthro’s nunchucks and had to duck!
Well it took almost a year to get it the way I wanted it but i think the books I set out to build look pretty good.
All in all there were actually 5 books. 4 volumes of print material and one volume of synopsis and morals. Each book has a title and contents page, with dividing title pages throughout.
The 4 volumes are roughly divided into scripts, animation art, promotional art, and merchandise and promotion information. Each book has well over 200 double sided pages. All the print material has been scanned and printed from the originals that I have, but some sheets in the merchandise book are scans from friends who generously let me borrow them.
haha sure but I don’t think the price tag would appeal to people. Since all the printing was spread over a year it wasn’t too bad. I had a copy store print really nice mostly colour copies which cost about $1 each for a double sided page, add that to almost $200 for the binding costs. And well, it was a project I’m glad is done cause it broke the bank.
