Jason Lives Original B2 Japanese Poster

Jason Lives Original B2 Japanese Poster

I never stop being amazed at how cool Japanese marketing is for the franchise. This poster is just about as cool as any I have seen released for the Japanese market, except maybe the A New Beginning poster. I am becoming more of a fan of Jason Lives every day as I find and collect [...]

I have been meaning to post these up here for a while and keep getting preoccupied, so here they are. They are really great cards and are much different than the Mexican lobby cards that I own. I have to say thanks to daizab for using these images.
