I just got all 36 of my poster books in, and here it is all scanned in and full of coolness.  This bad boy was printed back in 1979 in jolly 'ol England...which means most of the rest of the world hasn't EVER seen these things!  Thanks to the fine dudes on this board that pointed out the eBay auction for these out to me!  I will be selling some extras on eBay as time goes on so you can own one too!

You are right. I never knew there were two versions of the poster - compare it to the Black and White and version below.

tell ya what else i just noticed the poster further up the page on the right handside see if u can spot what to me looks like cowboy(white head dress) and snow(brown head dress) and the lizzie that says "hiya" whoever done the original artwork do you think that they gave him head shots of the other actors apart from beck?cause i have always thought that the black guy at the front looks like david harris but is done up as cleon,and that the skinhead with the shades is terry michos but with no hair!try use youre contacts war cheif see what the score is?

You're right on there, yids! Take a look at this thread...

http://warriorsmovie.co.uk/forum/http:/ ... 807#p55807

It focuses on the LP cover, which is the same as the poster seen here, and some of the characters in the movie that people have spotted among the gangs...

I believe tim has a shop in Coney, though not sure if it is just an online shop. Just send a PM to alexfugazi (aka Tim).

Well, yes, that is me...I thought that was clear in the post I made above! 

I have a shop in Austin TX, but I figured for the Warriors item, it'd be funny to list it as being at Coney Island.  If you check the zip code, it is obviously a Texas zip.

Charloots-
Incidentally, I never received a message from you asking to pick it up.  Why is that?

Look, if you have an axe to grind, let's take care of it off-line eh?  No need to drag down another thread...ok?

Once I became aware if it's existence, I searched High and Low for more info on it...unfortunately, I don't think it was printed anywhere else...It would be super great to find one printed in another language, like Russian or Spanish.

I wonder what the Cyrillic spelling is for 'The Warriors'?

If you're interested, here's the link for one on eBay right now-
