I dug up some neat goodies.  It seems they ever made a phone card in Japan that had TGL's cover art on it. There was a guide book too.  The only clickable feature is the instruction booklet. In the PDF features some neat art such as the Guardian herself, how very sexy.

I'd like to hope someone can translate what it says about her in the schematics/cross-sectioning.

I am still on the hunt for this illusive "Cloth Poster" that was included with a special edition release of this game.  Right now ebay has a listing for the complete set (minus the cloth poster)

If anyone has any leads on this poster, please post it here.  I only saw it once, but never saved the image >.<

So that is why I have the nes file called TGLA and also TGLA code works for the shmup mode - BECAUSE japanese translate the game as The Goardic Legend of Another (u can see it in bucklet.

That's really NEAT find Izlude

It's like the first time I ever see the Miria this way.
LOL and she is in bikini!
If the used those Naju+Miria on the botton picture(but better her bikini and gloves be red) that could be the best Cover art! The other 3 covers are shit not only because they not remind anything in thegame but just because this picture in Bucklet is so much better!

oh there's one more thing i was curious about.  i used to read in reviews of the game that there was another version out there.  they changed the biological level into some generic cave level.  is that true?  i've yet to find such a version.   i think it would be most interesting to see

[arseniy]

Hm?? I have no idea.
Did you played the ROM hack made by optomon?

[Izlude]

oh, no haven't yet.  i'll check it out    


oh i'd like to add to this thread..  http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b115064341

this guide book which appears to be an actual guide book and not the instruction booklet may contain artwork that we've never seen before.  you know how some books contain extra drawings and goodies... i wonder if it's possible to buy it even if i live in the usa.

Is there any pictures to see? I can't read this language. I see only one picture there.

Wow, they're selling it for "only" 6600 yen (about 60 euro or 78.50 USD). A real bargain compared to the 123 USD price tag attached to previous auction (which admittedly will get you a fully working cartidge instead of paper).

I really never got the point with vintage computer-related auctions. I don't understand. I understand the people who buy the items at that price much less.

Oh I think I found the poster!!!



This is supposed to be made of some fabric and not cheap laminated paper.  Possibly similar to US Dollars, but just a little more tough... It shouldn't rip too easily. It's definately a valued collectors item.  I wish I could get my hands on it!  I'm still going crazy trying to buy the guide book.  It looks to be a hard cover book. I'm curious if there are more illustrations like the girl we saw in the Japanese instruction booklet.  Hope you enjoy the finds!

Here's the guide book for your enjoyment (so you don't have to click the link in my previous post!)

The poster seems the exact image from guide. But it has some weird "Zone Image" logo on it.
