Ah, I heard about this, it's the upcoming Kazunori Saito book. Here's his bibliography at Amazon: link. If you don't have those books already, get them, they're excellent. |

Have you guys seen the other Saito books? Toy porn, indeed. He's got one on Popy, , one on Popynica one on Machinders, one on Henshin Cyborg, and 3 on Sofubi. Well worth hunting for. |

This is funny, the book has only one review on Amazon, and it gives one star. Here's a translation courtesy of Matt Alt: "They call it complete, but there's no list of products or any kind of overview data! I was SHOCKED! There's no way to know if all the kaiju are REALLY here, and the only text is trivia level... And the author's rarity scale system is laughable." (Read it out loud in the Comic Book Guy's voice, it's funnier.) |

Just got the book, it is big and beautiful, and it focuses exclusively on Ultra and Godzilla kaiju. Gonna spend more time savoring it later. |

Hey folks - this sounds like an amazing book pictorially, but does anyone have feedback on the textual aspect? I'm sure I'd drool all over the photos, but I'd love to become more informed on the history/back story on the vintage pieces. |

There is much more text in the book than Saito's previous ones. However, you have to be able to read Japanese to enjoy it. |

Ahhhh, well that's good to know. It sure sounds like great eye candy though. |
