JJ2 E3 Promo Flyer on eBay
 
Clicky.
Those wanting to add to their collection of Jazz-related-items may want to pick up this flyer, apparently distributed at E3 to promote JJ2. I just got mine today and am quite happy with it, and there are another 20 hours or so to go on this one, so act now!

For the curious: no new information is contained within. There are five new screenshots but they all seem to have been taken in the completed (v1.20) game (using, sometimes quite obviously, some cheat codes). There's another confirmation that Eva does in fact have a father. The only real glaring inaccuracy is the idea of special moves allowing you access to "numerous secret levels," which I will take to mean just secret AREAS, not actual .j2l files. Also it doesn't seem to know about 3 player Party Mode.
Bid now! It's glossy! It's exciting!

$0.99 for the actual flyer and $9.99 for shipping is a bit much ;)

However, nice find. Any chance you can scan the contents and put them online? What size is it, ISO A5?

Could you perhaps scan the back side? I want to know if this is really worth my 10 bucks.

Stijn Nov 7, 2007 03:48 PM

Oh, the $9.99 is for shipping to the Netherlands, US shipping is $4.99.

n00b Nov 7, 2007 04:44 PM

Ah, still the front side isn't making a good case for my 6 dollars.

Bobby aka Dizzy Nov 7, 2007 04:46 PM

Is for me. :)

And Violet, do you know of any JJ2 related posters or high-res pictures that were used in advertisements?

EvilMike Nov 7, 2007 07:14 PM

You should scan this and post it.

It actually opens up, so there are four sheets... the cover, which you've seen, the back, which is basically one long ad for Prima's (then upcoming) strategy guide, and the inside, which has several screenshots, a plot summary, and a list of features. I'm not totally sure what the scanner situation is around here, but we'll see...

In advertisements... nope, sorry. I think Shadow has a CC99 poster, but that's about it. JJ2 wasn't really advertised, remember? Most of what I run across is just crazy box-art, this was rather unusual.

Hmmm... $9.99 to post to the UK. Total is $10.98 (£5.22).

£5.22 is a bit too much for a flyer.

Yeah, I know, I was mostly hoping that you'd been able to come across another CC99 poster or something.

Edit: I win! :D

I think that the back is most interesting to note that this was GOD's first time doing all major distribution channels.

n00b Nov 17, 2007 05:58 PM

I was hoping they would show off some of Nick's sketches in the background as per the usual US JJ2 packaging motif.

Still, I quite like the shading style of Jazz and Spaz on the front now that I see it up close, so Ill probably pick the flyer up next time I find one for bidding.

Bobby aka Dizzy Nov 17, 2007 10:36 PM

Good luck finding one, the guy selling said he only had 2. :(

I like the note about "intelligent enemies dodging attacks"
