Hi, everyone, this is my first post! ^_^

I'd like to find / buy a "Metal Gear Solid 2 - The Trailer"

Have you ever seen it on ebay and do you know how much does it usually go for?

Also, I'd like to ask... I have the Document of MGS2, but not the MGS2 Premium dvd that came with the Japanese premium package... Am I missing something good? are there more trailers / special footage?

I am not an action figure fan, so is the Premium Package worth to get that dvd alone?

Thanks guys. ^_^ I look forward to be an active member of this forum.

Well, ebay is your only choice right now.. just look for original ones, if you care.

About the PP, yes the dvd(s is you get the one that was given as preorder gift) do contain some extra footage such as commercials, all the trailers of MGS and MGS2, in-house development videos and some interviews.

Welcome and hope you like it here.

Of course. Wouldn't buy it otherwise. (what's the point of a copy for a collector? :razz:)

But I am aware there are two versions, a region 2 and a region 3. Shadowmoses has scans from the region 3 one. Do you know if they differ in something else other than the region code?

Thanks! Are you HQ's webmaster A. Urbina? I might register on the forum just now, but I used to surf your page in years! ^_^

I'll check the one at home and let you know what region it is, and if I see any differences. I've been way to slow with MG items.

Yes, I should have them. Can't upload them here however. Should I send them via email?

There, sent, enjoy ^_^

Huh, Are "The Trailer" scans on Junker HQ too? I thought they were but can't find em anymore.

btw, one of the reasons I'm interested in this collectible piece is Mamoru Oshii's comment on SOL... cool! And Shinya Tsukamoto too, of course.

So, do you guys have any idea if "The Trailer" shows up regularly on ebay and how much does it cost nowadays?

Of course, if you happen to find one for sale, please let me know. I'd appreciate very much!

I've seen one on ebay a few minutes ago, try searching, can't remember the price though.
Good luck!

Unfortunately they never have been.. I've not scanned it (yet). I am a bit slow when it comes to MG items.. there are so many of them, that sometimes I forget to scan them when they arrive and never do. Right now my machine at home iHDD is damaged... (I am using an Ubuntu Linux live CD to post this), but I'll scan them when I get the time.

Well, I have it right here in front of me, and the booklet reads:

I have one more thing to say as a gun fan.
The gun fights are totally amazing.

If I'm not mistaken, it's a rip of all the movie scenes from TTS, it's quite common at ebay some guys rip MG games' movies and sell it, no reason at all to buy it.[/quote]
