Mechamaniac Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Holy hell, I remember that place. There was a time...younguns...when books nippon was pretty much your only hope of obtaining anime goodies in the US. Quote
Beltane70 Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Books Nippon is where I actually got my Gold Book from. When I bought it, it was just over $100, though. Quote
Zinjo Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Books Nippon is where I actually got my Gold Book from. When I bought it, it was just over $100, though. Yep, I got my 1986 printing of Perfect Memory from those guys too... That's how I know it came with a poster, just like the first printing did... Quote

Gubaba Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Old school Macross fans never age, BOMBA!!!! Did I just say that? Don't tell Gubaba that I did! Huh? What? Did someone say something? And to think that, at the time, we thought Books Nippan was way too expensive... But yeah, I still have a lot of stuff that I bought there, including the Megazone 23 (Part 1) soundtrack and the Area 88 Acts I & II vocal collection, both on vinyl. Quote
Duke Togo Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 I found my membership cards. Must scan one! Quote
Beltane70 Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Cool! I have no idea what happened to my membership card. I just went looking where I thought I might have had an old catalog, but no luck. Quote
