Ok guys! Lets see the community spirit amongst the Hasbro collectors! Attached is a picture of the original collectors poster. If we can get high quality/resolution scans of all of the figures from the back of the cards, I will be able to re-create the poster using Photoshop, and then everyone can print it out whenever/however they please. Also, let me know if you would prefer it to feature all of the figures from the entire series, or whether you would prefer me to simply copy the original poster exactly. I am happy to do whatever the majority of the group wish, so get scanning, and lets get scanning! I only have LOD MOC personally, otherwise I would just scan them all in myself, but at least this way everyone gets to be a part of the project too! Right, Lets get started! Here are all of the figures within the entire collection: Hulk Hogan #1The Ultimate Warrior (green tights)André the Giant Demolition Ax Demolition SmashRavishing Rick RudeRandy "Macho Man" Savage #1AkeemThe Big Bossman #1Ted DiBiase #1Jake "The Snake" Roberts Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake #1Hulk Hogan #2The Ultimate Warrior #2Honky Tonk Man Dusty RhodesRowdy Roddy PiperJimmy Snuka"Macho King" Randy Savage #2Hacksaw Jim Duggan #1Ted DiBiase #2The Bushwhackers The RockersDemolition Smash and CrushHulk Hogan #3The Ultimate Warrior #3Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake #2Greg "The Hammer" ValentineEarthquake Typhoon Sgt. Slaughter "Macho Man" Randy Savage #3Mr. Perfect #1Koko B. Ware Texas Tornado Big Bossman #2The Undertaker #1Ricky Steamboat Bret "Hitman" Hart #1The British Bulldog The Legion of Doom The Nasty Boys Hulk Hogan #4"Macho Man" Randy Savage #4Jim "The Anvil" NeidhartSid Justice SkinnerThe Mountie "The Model" Rick Martel Virgil Warlord Irwin R. SchysterRic FlairPapa ShangoEl MatadorRepo ManTatankaThe BerzerkerKamalaOwen Hart Crush #2Nailz Razor Ramon Shawn Michaels #2Bam Bam BigelowYokozuna #1Lex Luger Mr. Perfect #2Bret "Hitman" Hart #2The Undertaker #2Rick Steiner Scott Steiner Doink The Clown Ted DiBiase #3 Hacksaw Jim Duggan #2Sorry if I got any of the numbers wrong or whatever, but I have done my best t okeep the figures in series order, so that everyone knows what scans we still need. We need 0 to complete the scans! Well done guys!
Here is the final poster:img3.imageshack.us/img3/7990/hasbropostercomplete.jpgPlease say thanks, and leave 'Karma' for all involved. Also, if you do get this printed and put it up at home, it would be great to see some photos!

Hey that's a cool idea/scan - I'll do my green card 1-2-3 Kid back when I can but may take a while - no scanner!

Awesome! Thanks HasbroFan! I've scanned my LOD figures to start us off....the card is pretty battered, so the Typhoon picture isn't really good enough to use, but I have marked off all of the pictures that are useable from the list. I scanned the card in at 1200 DPI, and I think this would be the ideal size for all of the scans to make sure we get the best quality possible. Here is an example of the Animal from LOD scan at full size: What do you guys think? Should be pretty cool!

Hey there Guys! Thanks for the positive comments! I can defiantely do it ability wise.... Here is a Hart Foundation custom Hasbro card I made over the weekend: The only problem is, I havent got all of the cards to scan them in myself. I need the scans at 1200 DPI really, so that they are of a high enough quality to print out at full size. I guess the easiest way to do it would just be to scan in the card, then upload it to YouSendIt, and then post the link here. Then I can download the scan, and mark off the figures from the list as and when we have them. Get scanning guys! This would be an awesome Christmas present for all of us!

Thanks for the positive comments guys! I still haven't received any card scans yet though from any of the guys here kev85hasbro Has sent one but it isn't quite of a high enough quality to use on the poster as the scan is too small. I need the scans at 1200 DPI.... There should be an options screen which allows you to choose the resolution to 'scan-in' at on your computer. I will create the poster tonight, featuring all of the images that I have so far from the back of my own LOD card scan, but after that I really need the help of everyone here to complete the poster for us. I'm sure a lot of you would be more than happy to download the poster/print it out, so please help contribute to the construction of it, because I can't do it without you. Thanks guys! Get scanning! hehe

Hey there Meatybat! That sounds awesome! Thank you so so much! I will be getting to work on the poster tonight, so should have the start of it to show you guys a little later on today. It will look a bit empty though, as I only have the scans for the figures marked off the list in red above. It will still be cool to see it all come together though!

Let us know, and I'll do them all for you.. Hey there matey! The 2 scans you sent over would have been perfect if they were scanned in at 1200 DPI. Basically the cards need to be scanned in at the highest quality possible, so once they are printed out they look perfect, and not blurry/distorted Also, I just noticed something quite interesting....It seems that they got the mechanisms the wrong way round for the Rockers figures on the back of the card... ...unless that was how the figures were originally planned to work, and they decided to switch them around after the cards had been printed?

Yeah, it is wierd how much more I am finding-out about the line from studying them in so much detail.....anyway..... Here is the poster with all of the figures added that I have so far: I'm going to need everyones help to complete it from this point on, so if you want to have a copy of the poster free of charge forever, you are going to have to scan in your figures ...Obviously this is just a shrunken down version of the poster to show you guys on here. The full size version is bloody massive! hehe.

Poster has now been updated with Virgil, Undertaker, Warlord, and The Mountie. Many thanks to adam74 for the scans! .....Also, another interesting side note, it seems that the Hasbro quality-checking department was asleep again, as the 'bear-hug' Hulk Hogan figure is on the original poster twice, and the Typhoon figure isn't on there at all. Any more scans guys?? I think the best way to supply them is to upload them to www.yousendit.com and then mail over the link, as the files may be a bit large to email.

hey - i know i said i'd prefer the original poster than a newly made one - but this is looking awesome and i'm going to be the first to say i'll be downloading it and getting printed large (i don't have a scanner to help unfortunately!) Great work Tibbo, this really is going to look great
