Image/cover for the Macross F novel (volume 1)
Forgive me if this was already posted but I finally got the chance to see what the cover for the Macross F novel looks like. I love the image!
http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/4...SIN=4044738017 Well Darial already provided most of the info on another thread. Anyway to reiterate some of the info, it's a paperback and available at 620 yen...not too bad but I made a trip to Book-off in Torrance last week so I haven't placed my order yet. Book-Off is an evil place where one can easily drop a couple hundred dollars on manga...but on the plus side I did manage to find Macross 7 Trash 1-5 for a $1 each But yes...placing order soon. Sheryl does look nice on the cover, doesn't she? Anyhow, according to one reviewer on Amazon.jp, the person who read it felt that it was easier to empathize with Alto. This reviewer who gave this novel 5 stars confirms that there is definitely a lot more backstory to each of the characters which is great! I'm looking forward to reading up on some additional info on each of the characters. LOL, another reviewer gave it 3 out of 5 stars mainly due to the fact that it's not exactly "Macross-newbie" friendly with it's complex information on Macross history and valkrie information. --Lone Wolf 一匹狼 Last edited by lone_wolf; 2008-07-14 at 16:58.

LOL, I agree. Apparently there are some extra illustrations in the novel. Actually I'm hoping that they release a "Settei" image book of all the outfits that Sheryl wears. Oh woops...For those who are not familiar with the term 'settei'. Notes Settei = translation is "setting" but also referred to as "Character model sheets." --Lone Wolf 一匹狼 |

Ah yes, the pain of Macross F merchandise being released in batches...while it will certainly hurt my finances as well, I fall victim going over my budget. If a Sheryl/Alto/Klan PVC or any artbooks come out soon, I'm screwed. Oh yeah...can't forget gashapon *sigh*. --Lone Wolf 一匹狼 |
