Title: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo? A request for a favor... Post by: schild on June 27, 2007, 10:39:01 AM (http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2007/06/udon_art_of_capcom.jpg)
300+ Pages of Udon work? Hardback? I want one of these something fierce. Seems like the first run is only at different anime conventions and shit. Can anyone hook a brother up?

I probably could have gotten this one past the wife but it's a bit late in the week for a trip to California.

Title: Re: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo? A request for a favor... Post by: WayAbvPar on June 27, 2007, 12:03:04 PM I also have a favor to ask. Please strap several dozen pounds of high explosives to yourself and take out as many anime fans and producers as you can. You will be rewarded with 72 tentacles with which to rape virgins in the afterlife.

This is about the awesome. It's really the only way to get it in hardback. I love me some hardback art books.

I can have them check future cons if you still need it though. Title: Re: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo? A request for a favor... Post by: Yegolev on June 27, 2007, 01:51:43 PM I do know a Diamond sales rep, if that is how one might get such things.
Title: Re: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo? A request for a favor... Post by: Velorath on June 27, 2007, 03:21:34 PM Haven't seen any mention anywhere of a hardback version of this book, even articles mentioning the book being available at conventions.
Title: Re: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo? A request for a favor... Post by: Koyasha on June 28, 2007, 03:21:52 AM Well, I'll definitely be at AX. I'll PM you when I get the chance if I see it there.
Title: Re: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo? A request for a favor... Post by: Teleku on June 28, 2007, 04:58:29 AM Yeah, Udon has some pretty damn good art. One of my roommates always stopped by their booth every year we went to comicon to get a personal sketch by Omar Dogan. I didnt have any interest in them, but I was supprised when I actually saw some of their work. Really nice, and Dogan can draw some really nice looking stuff really really fast. Was pretty neat to see.
Having said that........... (http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/4564/img21142ol4.jpg) Not only do they like giving them anime sized tits, but also seem to be big fans of the crotch shot as well. Title: Re: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo? A request for a favor... Post by: schild on June 28, 2007, 05:47:55 AM Jesus. The art book is $80.
F that. They charge less for their Akuma bust. The softback of the book is MSRPd at $40. WHO CHARGES $40 JUST TO ADD A HARD COVER. Damn. Title: Re: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo?

Post by: Koyasha on July 01, 2007, 05:15:59 AM Saw the book finally today, and yes, it's pretty, yes, it's $80, and yes, people are bloody insane for buying it at that price. You can even get it along with another Hardcover book for the low price of $120.
Title: Re: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo? A request for a favor... Post by: schild on July 01, 2007, 02:43:14 PM Yea, I would have ponied up $40 or $50.
But $80. Not a chance, would rather buy 2 bad video games. Title: Re: Is Anyone Going to Anime Expo? A request for a favor...
