    Closest thing I can think of is the “Star Wars Art: Ralph McQuarrie” which is all of the early Star Wars concept art for the original trilogy, it is 200$ - 800 large pages and really 2 books

      @MatthewFabb Před měsícem +2

      There's also the two volumes of The Star Wars Archives by Paul Duncan that are $200 each. They are huge oversized books that are both over 600 pages each the first one covering the original triology and the 2nd one covering the prequels. The book publisher also offers a much smaller cheaper version with a decreased page count of both the books for just $40.

      @forsafemode Před měsícem +3

      ​@@MatthewFabbYes two trilogy books from Taschen. I hold both copies and they are massive books. 600+ pages and weighing around 8-9kg (20 pounds) each. A gigantic book that throws an impression and filled with in depth, behind the scene information. If that one costs 200 dollars, this book should certainly be less than 100 dollars

    Thanks so much for going so thoroughly this set. Those "coffee table" books are usually a higher price point but I can see the license and extras driving up the price. Still a great bundle. I just focus on those hard cover books that focus on building techniques for LEGO. As a newer AFOL, I find the investment in those (via discounts on Amazon) more worth the value. Hope to get to the building skill level that you have. Congrats on getting your MOC in there - you're part of history man!

Personally, I really find this book interesting but I think on it's own, it would be more appealing at a $50 price. I'm not really sure what LEGO were thinking when they put $150 as a price tag on this to be honest, even with this "deluxe edition". Let's hope they do a "peasant version" for a sane price. And congrats for getting your Geonosis MOC published in an official LEGO book David, that really is something else!

    Pretty neat. I wouldn't go out of the way to get it myself, but I definitely get the appeal it has for long-time collectors. Kind of a niche thing, so I can kind of understand the price point; the people this is marketed towards are people who are SUPER into lego SW and have been for a very long time(fans, actual fans who enjoy the theme, not "investors" who probably won't care about this because it doesn't come with some rare figure or something to sell later.)

    I had this on my list. Had. I sincerely hope they will bring out the book solo, without all the flimflam, then I will buy it.
