All new content across the board, as well as a bonus reprint of Matt's article from issue #1 on Astro-mu. There is a master list and photo essay of every Toho Standard size original Marusan/Bullmark figure plus every reproduction of them that exists. Complete Secret Base fight figure checklist and photogrpahs, the same with RealxHead and Astro-Mu. There is also an interview with Shin from Neighborhood, as well as a selection of the best header and backer card art, and a highlight of the reason so many well known and lesser know collectors got into the game. Plus More!

Yes, the Mook is a triumph!
I have just spent the better part of 2 hours gawking at the photographs, and haven't even scratched the surface. It is like a love letter to skullbrainers everywhere; a veritable labor of love.

it's a great mook. pics rule. but the best feature is the intoxicating smell of the book's glue. with every turn of the page the scent wafts out, subtly intoxicating.
seriously, you can really smell the glue.
it does not affect the enjoyability of the product. an excellent buy!

The picture layouts are top notch! The great detail in the SB check list is awesome. Although for a lot of us there will be some heart break in that. I've already felt it. Haha
Worth the wait and hats off to Super7! I don't think I met you, that sucks. Hopefully you can come down again.

Worth the wait and hats off to Super7! I don't think I met you, that sucks. Hopefully you can come down again. I wasn't sure if you were really you. haha does that make sense? You see someone in pictures and then it's weird to go up to them in real life and be like are you......but I will be back soon hopefully and we will meet then! And then all of us in the store can frolic among the toys. 
ps at any event from here on out, SB name badges! Just like at comic-con, that was nice.
