Ditto! I'm going to put Ligier next to my crystal clear convoy.

It's the same kind of deal as the green (Movie colours) version of Encore Ratchet from the other year. The book will be available in Japan and will have a coupon for the figure included. Japanese residents buying the book can send off the coupon and whatever the extra cost of the figure is and get the toy. If you don't live in Japan your options for getting it are to have a friend in Japan get it for you, pay a proxy buyer in Japan to get it for you, order one from an online retailer for a mark up, get a loose one from ebay that's been 'liberated' from a factory or score one on the after market somewhere down the line, and it's fair to assume that the price on this will sky rocket.

That's saying something.

That's saying something.
I was surprised too. I was expecting about 120 from BBTS. I guess they don't want to risk the "Green Ratchet" fiasco that happened last time.

I'm surprised as well, assuming we use the same "buyer"

I am all over this.Firebird wrote:I really like the cover on that book. Its a pity that I don't read Japanese however, Otherwise I would gladly buy it.
The clear Ligier looks nice also.
However, if it's like the art book with the green G1 Ratchet it'll be 6000-ish yen for one and 10,000 for two. Not cheap.

The ordering information will be posted in the book. But since the book is not out yet, I don't know how BBTS can quote a price. My guess is that the actual price will around $40, like the other deluxe exclusives in the past.
The only way for Japanese residents to get this figure is by purchasing the book and mailing in the coupon.

When an exclusive is offered through a Japanese book, you need to cut out a coupon in the back of the book and mail it in with your money. Without the coupon you can't get the figure.

From the descriptions so far, I think this is going to be collection of pictures of all the Japanese Transformers that have come out in the past year + concept art + some cartoon art. The past books have been 130+ pages. I own a couple of the Japanese Transformers books. They're pretty cool.

I have Visual Works, and I love it to death, and I really want the Generations Deluxe from years ago (shame I couldnt get it then... prices on ebay are frightening), and I'm severely debating this book. I mean, I don't really care too much about the clear Ligier, though it is much better than the BotCon travesty, IMO, but I like concept art and such...but how much has really come out in the past year to make it worthwhile to buy for some photos and maybe some concept art etc.???
