I felt that this page was required to complete the site, though I'd really rather drop the whole thing entirely because the Japanese promos are a huge mess! (I saved this page for last....) This list was taken from the Japanese Card Homepage, which, apparently, isn't complete. Therefore (and because researching this is dang hard), not all promos may be included, dates may vary, and some promos have been re-released (such as in the Best Collection CD). Also, I have decided to not feature ADV-era cards and up, just because I won't be able to maintain the list.
NEW, AS OF FEB. 2009 -- Scans will be incorporated into the list itself, since I have enough of them now. Any ADV scans I happen to have will be at the end of the page, as will miscellaneous scans.
