I wonder if there's a higher res of this pic? Taito Gladiator related

It... has the.... CHARACTER NAMES! 
I literally raised my arms and yelled "YES!" when I seen this. 
There was another pic/poster/flyer that I had been searching for, and it was small and blurry. The drawing of the characters on that didn't look as cutesy as the above pic. And making out the names was impossible.
eta: Other pic of mysterious origin...
Names in bold represent the names I didn't know.
Solon, Irene, Pappos, Zayd (Zaid), Zenon (Xenon), Laula (Laura?), Bacchus, *Diokles (Diocles?), Agathon, *Gildas, and Gaius. Maitreya, I believe, must have something to do with a saving a Princess. But the game has a Treasure vault instead of a Princess, then it usually loops (depending on DIP settings, I guess).
*Diocles: Character in Blandia, but didn't have gray skin.
*Gildas: This was the name of the final boss in Blandia.

Edit: There is this, which is larger and has bolder colors.

I had the bottom picture as a poster. Arcade dude gave it to me, I was so thrilled. I think it came with the kit. Wish I still had it!

> too blurry?
Probably, but it doesn't matter too much at this point. It might be a nice addition to the 'Flyer Fever' site.... But I suppose that would depend on what size it is.
I didn't even know about ^that pic until, well, shortly after I made this topic.
The 2nd (embedded) pic I have posted is something I found on a site a long time ago (probably early 2000's). That pic (of mysterious origin) had the names of the characters, but were very hard to read given its resolution. Being the Gladiator fan(boy?) that I am (or was?) - having the Character names had something of value to me. You know what I mean?.... 
Anyway, perhaps the Wikipedia article on it could be updated and/or corrected. I edited it a long time ago with what few character names I knew, as well as stage names/descriptions, etc. I'm too critical of my own work so it definitely needs cleaning up.

It's not really a 404, but a 403 Forbidden because of a referral error. Just copy and paste the address into the address bar while at the error page, or drag and drop the link into a new window, and it'll work.

Did a search for the heck of it. Got this image in the results... On eBay, but nothing more. Strange how you can find an image but not a PAGE where the image came from.
Maybe the item has already been sold and that's why it can't be found by a human.
