Snatcher Merchandise Completely Viewable??? (Poll/Vote)

As you may have noticed I'm a HUGE Snatcher fan that's obsessed with ALL things Snatcher!
(I recently finally aquired the rare "No Subete" which inspired this thread)

The problem I've found as a fan/collecter over the years is that some of the merchandise is so rare and expensive that it's hard to find and not viewable anywhere to the less fortunate/fanatic fans...
So I would like to add to Artemio's amazing contributions/work by making all the "Snatcher merchandise" (well all that I own) viewable from cover to cover for all you fans! :mrgreen:
I'd like to know if anyone would be interested in me scanning the following items and making them available online for download/viewing? Please Vote using the Poll!

Snatcher Items:

Snatcher - No Subete (all about snatcher)
Snatcher - CD-ROMantic Official Guidebook
Snatcher - Pilot Disk Manual
Snatcher - PC-Engine Manual
Snatcher - Sega Saturn Manual
Snatcher - Sega CD Manual

^available already in a link somewhere around here for those interested

The MSX and PC-88 versions of Snatcher sell for around $300+ each, so I don't have those items in my collection to scan lol!

*ONLY IF the demand is high enough I will scan the items...
^The process is very time consuming and I'm risking the condition of my near MINT rare items...so there must be a high demand...sorry.

NOTE: There's some unique artwork scattered throughout these items that have never been posted anywhere on the internets!
Here's a few images as an example:

I say scan what you can without damaging the item, but if you fear cracking a spine or something like that, a good photo might work too.

I'm always curious to see new Snatcher related artwork.

I thank you guys for your interest, and hopefully more people vote! :mrgreen:
I don't mind slightly messing up the condition of my merch if it allows more people to enjoy it!

Here's a crappy photo of my Snatcher/Policenauts Merch!

It looks like you guys would like me to scan all of my material, so as soon as I can get a NEW scanner (old one is dead) I'll get to it! :mrgreen:

You shold get the PS1 version. It's really cheap and id be interested in seeing the manual for that one. But scanning whatever you can is good too.
I also heard the PC-8801 & MSX2 version's manual is exactly the same in both versions.

I'll be getting the PSX and Mega CD versions, but the MSX and PC-88 versions sell for around $200 to $400 each depending and I don't even have the MSX/PC-88 hardware.

I'll hopefully be getting a new scanner soon though! :mrgreen:

Cool, considering I already have the Saturn version. (Bought it off Amazon around Christmas for about $30) Worth every penny though, considering it was in great condition. (I.E. no scratches/one tiny crack on the back of the case) (Missing Spine Card, Registration card, and Stickers, though)
Atleast MSX2s arent relativly all that hard to come by, if you are a serious ebay user.

I accidently purchased 2 copies of the Sega Saturn version a while back so I've got 2 sets of stickers/cards etc...
I meant to buy the PSX and Saturn versions and not a duplicate DOH! ;(

Well if you have a few hundred dollars to loan me to purchase the game(s) and/or hardware I'd gladly accept LOLZ! :mrgreen:

Lol! Hahaha...
It's always handy to have 2 copies of something. Play the one that's in lesser condition, so the better one stays in good shape. =)

Edit: So, it's been nearly a year; did you get a new scanner or has this been forgotten?
I'd be very interested in seeing the fruits of this idea.

Funny you mentioned this as it's been on my mind lately...
Since I'm finishing up the "Script" project I was looking at my other projects to see what's next on the list and this is it.

I have not forgotten, but no I built a new PC rather than get a new scanner lol!
I figured the remake project I'm doing would benefit more by having a new PC (which it has greatly!)

In spetember I am getting a new scanner and so I'll complete this little project! :mrgreen:

Cool. Nice to see you've still been thinking about it.
Can't wait to see what comes of this.
