hard back and set for a 10th October release.

all of those years searching for one of these beauties - for under £100 - and finally a second chance to get my grubby grip around that strangely butch looking Rei cover.

well......i think that says it all.

Yeah i know! Unfotrunately i got mine a long time ago, for 50$! Anyway, it really worth it!

[The Eva Monkey]

Carl Horn told me about this a number of months back, I'm glad to see this finally solidified.

Holy Mother Of God!! $100?! Man......

[The Eva Monkey]

Holy Mother Of God!! $100?! Man......

Huh? Where are you getting $100?

[BLACKANGEL32076]

Worth every penny if you're an Eva fan.

yeah, i remember that was a part of that conversation...

Holy Mother Of God!! $100?! Man......

not $100 but £100, which at the moment is about $200 and i've seen them going for over £300 ($600)

What? That's really cheating..

[ZeroFive1]

I saw that at a bookstore once, like 3 years ago. It as only 50 bucks, so I dunno about these 200$ ones. :?

not from where i'm standing

i JUST got back from a trip to america and got a load of bargains thanks to that exchange rate. their economy os on its arse. has been for a loooong time.

the big money ones are because of rare book sellers cashing in, 3 years ago it wasn't so hard to get a hold of. in fact very easy.

[The Eva Monkey]

Well, for our American friends, it looks like it will retail for $25, and is available for pre-order at only about $16. Quite a bargain compared to what some people have been paying. I wouldn't say that any edition of the book would be worth any more than $50.

If you've ever thought about picking this book up, now would be the time. Perhaps if it does well enough, you might see Viz bring over his previous collection, Alpha, which I think is a better collection.

What's in it anyway? Arts only?

[ZeroFive1]

What's in it anyway? Arts only?

LOADS OF COOL ART.

REALLY COOL ART.

[Kaysow]

All by some Yoshiyuki Sadamoto guy.

[Hexon.Arq]

Now how does this comapre with Die Sterne, which was essentially just a big book of clip art?

[Legend of the Past]

Sounds sweet. I'll probably never get it, but none the less, sweet.

[The Eva Monkey]

What's in it anyway? Arts only?

Whereas Der Mond is acollection of Sadamoto's art featuring Evangelion, Alpha is a collection of his work from earlier, mostly featuring Nadia.

Now how does this comapre with Die Sterne, which was essentially just a big book of clip art?

Die Sterne is Evangelion art only, by many artists, not just Sadamoto. Der Mond has fewer illustrations, but larger and more detailed. But not entirely Evangelion, it includes other illustrations he's done.

I would say that Alpha, Der Mond, and Die Sterne are all quite good books. If you like Eva, go with Die Sterne. If you like Eva and Sadamoto, go with Der Mond. If you really like Sadamoto, give Alpha a go.

[Ryousanki King]

Thank God, I've been waiting for this for ages ever since I heard a single whisper about it.

[toReason]

Thanks for the info, have just pre-ordered it. :)

[Darius]

Ah yes...a hardcover too..=)

It will be at my local bookstore around that time I suppose...Si i'll probably get it from there.

Oh and will there be a re-release for Die Sterne as well?
