I wish I could bring my AA poster up for Bruce to sign at DragonCon, but I will be limiting it to my ENCOM badge.

Another Arcade Aid Poster sold

Regarding the Flynn Lives ARG you are most likely correct. But there are many "valuable collectables" resulting from other ARGS that have a real value and hold it quite well (so far). The Dark Night related ARGs come to mind...
I was really hoping Tron (Legacy) would become a great franchise for Disney. Go to any toy store or Walmart/Target, and you'll see a ton of Batman/Star Wars/Iron Man/Transformers related toys. These "franchises" will be strong for a long while. Tron toys are now relegated to "fan boy" status and flea market giveaways, and I find this a little disheartening. I was hoping to find a few "Tron Uprising" toys on the shelf, but none yet. We are kind of in a mid-season break, so if Tron Uprising comes back "gangbusters", perhaps we will see some toys on the shelf for Christmas.
If Tron ever catches on as a "lucrative" franchise for Disney, then I firmly believe the Arcade Aid poster will be valued collector's item and not just a sentimental fanboy possession.

BEYOND sentimental... I don't think any ARG material has a value beyond sentimental except for immediately after release.

Another Arcade Aid Poster sold
Recently, #24 (FSURobbie) of the Arcade Aid series posters was sold for $40. A new low for a new low, as it were. On the flip side, it looks like the EOLC posters are holding "their value" quite well.
In the absense of "The Club" in Tron Uprising so far, and no further word on a Tron 3 (Tron Legacy 2) other than script rumors (and Bruce's proclamation, and the Writers vague statements at comicon 2012), there's no guarantee that there will ever be another mention or usage of "The End Of Line Club". On the other hand, the Arcade Aid poster can be considered historical and much more widely appreciated, and retro gaming will always "be in fashion".
I find it fascinating the "lack of interest" in the Arcade Aid posters versus the "exclusivity" of the EOLC posters. My prediction is that in 20 years, both will be equally "forgotten about". But I would have expected the Arcade Aid poster would be much more in demand than it is/was. Although this particular forum is currently "dead", I'd love to hear other member's opinions on the value/desirability of these two posters BEYOND sentimental.

For posterity's sake, on July 3rd,a #15 Arcade Aid poster went on eBay asking 99.99 and went UNBID for the entire 5 day auction. How sad, in my opinion.
Item relisted AT SAME OPENING PRICE for another six days:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Disney-Tron-Legacy-Flynn-Lives-ARCADE-AID-15-999-Poster-Perfect-Condition-/320941474380?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ab99a424c
#533 went for $60 and #221 went for $50. The market for these posters are quickly disappearing...
---
Update 7/16: The latest Auction for Arcade Aid Poster #15 ended up being sniped at the last six seconds for the opening bid. I guess that means that the bidder probably used a sniping service and bid a little more, because sniping a two-time no bidder listed auction makes no sense. At least it sold... I'm guessing that until Tron3/TronLegacy2 is announced, there will continue to be no demand and no value for the limited edition 1000 run Arcade Aid posters.

well, it still has all the tron game elements in it, and is still an awesome video game poster in and of itself, everyone that sees mine tries to guess all the games. I can see it being more valuable in say 20 years when people get nostalgic for this era the way it is with the 80's and 90's now, and when they stumble upon the weird story or the real life game for the old tron legacy movie and how there were limited posters released as part of it, well then it might get pricey. Like you I don't plan on selling mine, but I did spend 60.00 on an archival quality frame for it, just in case one day...

5 hours left, and no bidders. How truly sad for #15 - a really low Arcade Aid poster. It's possible it could skyrocket near the end, I certainly hope so.
Would other members consider the Arcade Aid poster "Tron Memorabilia"?
When you think about it, the Arcade Aid poster actually got LESS exposure than the more limited edition End of Line Club poster, as it wasn't at SDCC 2010. And it doesn't have anything directly related to "Tron" anywhere on it. Just maybe the "--Zack" signature on the non-attached card. For someone that wasn't involved in the ARG, that's a connection that doesn't add 1 penny to a collector of Tron memorabilia. That's the only explanation I can understand as to why this poster doesn't gain more interest on eBay. It's actually a very nice quality print, and rarer than most because it has the limited edition number on it, with a record of the original owner per number, making counterfeiting very difficult. Problem is, with no desirability, no one would counterfeit it anyway...
OK, I'm rambling. I'll post the final value of the same when the auction ends...

Someone was asking $400 or best offer for the #373 EOLC poster about 3 months ago. I've got #19 of the EOLC, so I was really curious if he got anywhere near that. I asked, but never found out what he actually got for it. Sounded really excessive to me, but it was an SDCC only thing on a run of 700. The cool thing is that these posters were NUMBERED EXACTLY THE SAME as the AA posters. I mean, same handwriting, ink and number schema XXX/XXX. So an AA poster and an EOLC poster together is a very rare thing indeed, IMO.
I've got #007 of AA, so I am also very interested in how much this goes for. It shouldn't make any difference to me, because I am not looking to sell mine. I'll still be disappointed if #15 only goes for $100 or so, because then I'll be forced to admit that this is really just a sentimental poster and not really a collector's item. We will see...
