Ginrai Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 Hi folks. I have been slowly compiling material on Megazone 23 for years since I want to revive my old website about the OVA series and make it truly comprehensive. I've tracked down every book I could find about it, but I'd like to check and see if any of you know of any books I don't have, and any magazines with info would be great, too, since I think I only have one magazine with mz23 stuff in it. Here's the list of what I have: B-Club Special: Megazone 23 (Bandai, 2000 yen) J-Anime: Megazone 23 (Kindaieiga-sha, 980 yen) J-Anime: Megazone 23 Part II - The Official Art of Megazone 23 (Kindaieiga-sha, 1200 yen) Best Hit Series: Megazone 23 Graffiti (Akita, 850 yen) B-Club Special: Artmic Design Works (Bandai, 1800 yen) Megazone 23 Special Present Settei (Idol/Artmic, 1000 yen Megazone 23 Special Present Settai 0 (Idol/Artmic, 1000 yen) Megazone 23 Movie Program (Idol/Artmic, 400 yen) Megazone 23 Part II Movie Program (Idol/Artmic, 400 yen) Megazone 23 Film Manga 1 (Shogakukan, 980 yen) Megazone 23 Film Manga 2 (Shogakukan, 980 yen) Megazone 23 Part II Film Manga 1 (Shogakukan, 980 yen) Megazone 23 Part II Film Manga 2 (Shogakukan, 980 yen) Entertainment Bible .16: Artmic 1 (Bandai, 850 yen) Entertainment Bible .19: Artmic 2 (Bandai, 850 yen) SF Action Anime Megazone 23 Novel (X? and Idol/Artmic?, 400 yen) Best Hit Series: Megazone 23 Post Card Book (Akita, 380 yen) New Video Magazone 10 October 1989 (?, 500 yen) Robotech Art 3: The Sentinels (Donning/Starblaze, $12.95) Robotech: The Movie Issue 1 (Academy, $2.95) Roboetch: The Movie Issue 2 (Academy, $2.95) And although it hasn't gotten here yet, I just bought this: Lark Mechanical Manual Vol. 1: Official Art of Megazone 23 So does anyone else know of any Megazone 23 books or magazines with Megazone 23 stuff in them? Any can anyone help me translate the publisher's information for the Megazone 23 novel and the New Video Magazine? I cannot read kanji. Thanks for any help! Quote
GoAkiraGo Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Hey I know how you can translate it yourself just let me find the website and I will get back to you all I will ask in trade is a few scans of the books you have please I collect those too I will get a list of what I have. Quote
Roger Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 There is also a Lark Mechanical Manual for Megazone 23 Part 2. Quote
Ginrai Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 Is there? Damn, I don't have that one yet! Any idea how to get ahold of it? I did just get a new booklet, though. I guess it's called Megazone 23 Perfect Guide, but it's just a tiny little pamplet with stuff I've already seen repeatedly in other books. http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/8477/EN...LF037Medium.jpg Quote

TSP Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 (edited) You're missing the Megazone 23 Maneuver Book. It's been released last year. Amazon Link Edited March 12, 2008 by TSP Quote
Ginrai Posted March 13, 2008 Author Posted March 13, 2008 Yeah, I posted this list a year ago. I have the Maneuver book too. Quote
GoAkiraGo Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 Hey could you update your Megazone Book List? I also collect those books Quote
Ginrai Posted March 14, 2008 Author Posted March 14, 2008 I've got a cold so I'm kind of gauzy at the moment, but I will try to remember to get out the new items I've gotten and add them and their publishing information to this thread. Quote
Roger Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 Is there? Damn, I don't have that one yet! Any idea how to get ahold of it?Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure it has no ISBN, but you can always search Amazon JP for used copies, and of course, Yahoo Japan Auctions. I don't have it but I have the first volume that I got as a gift from a friend, who bought it at Mandarake. Funny thing about it was that it has a Twentieth Century Imports sticker on it, which means that it went from Japan to America, back to Japan, and then back to America. Quote
yellowlightman Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 I'm pretty sure I have some old magazines (like, late 80's stuff) with Megazone 23 coverage. I can probably scan them um, if you'd like. Quote
CAIN MKII Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 Awesome collection you got here Ginrai . I'm a fan of the mechas from Megazone23 part II and III. What artbooks would you suggest me? I already have the two entertainment bible dedicated to artmic but I'm looking for more mechas lineart (specialy the Garland E=X). What about your avatar, is it a scan of a cover? Quote
