That's a rather hard book to find, and if you do expect to pay 100 and up...

Ah, is that where the Kr initials come from? It must have taken a while to track them all down.

Thanks for posting the images. I think I know where I can get a copy of that book. The villains are wonderful, so bizarre. I think the kamen rider heroes themselves would be the last on my wish list.

Loving those pics! All the weird paint variations on the original rider suits are awesome! Blue and silver kills!

urg, my scanner at home is being a super jerkdizzle, so here are some slightly less cool photos of the kamen rider book i picked up in tokyo. it contains most of the vintage figures, and tons of other vintage kamen rider items.

enjoy!

Josh,

Thanks for the images. Looks like a good book. I picked up the hero catalogue and another couple to boot. I may have to get this one too.

abe, heres the Kanji. Looking at YJA it seems like an easy pick up. 仮面ライダーグッズ大鑑

The book Josh is sharing with us was published in 2002; I picked that same year on one of my visits to Tokyo. Great book, if you're a KR freak like I am. The forth scan features various KR calendars from back in the day.

Post Re: Kamen Rider book?
anyone here know anything about micronauts type kamen rider black?
i bought one at a comic book shop called Eides in 1988 or so & traded
them to a friend in the 90s.

these are in a longbox package with super graphics & are assemble
model snap together figures. i need to find them again but can not
remember who made them.

are they in these books you guys are talking about?
