briscojr84 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Does anybody have the Flashback 2012 Grafitti Book and if so would someone be willing to help me with some pics. The ones I need mainly are of the ships, uniforms/flightsuits, and any weapons or missiles and gunpods or fastpacks that are in it. Thanks for any help.

Renato Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 That's like one of the rarest books ever. If anyone has it, it'll either be Shawn or Valkyrie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAXXxxx Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) if it is the one with minmay in front and megaroad in back then I have it too, but that book was a dissapointment for linearts. there is almost none, and even they are repeated in other books (like some of the concert crew images). but I'll look at it if there is anzthing of use in there, and try to scan in a few pages on monday at best.

Graham Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I have that book and yes, there is not too much line art. Most of the lineart is repeated elsewhere, lke in the B-Club Entertainment Bibles. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhyone Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I have that book and yes, there is not too much line art. Most of the lineart is repeated elsewhere, lke in the B-Club Entertainment Bibles. What is inside then? This is one of the few Macross books/magazines that I wanted but didn't manage to get cos it's always so expensive (> US$50). I wonder why.

briscojr84 Posted April 2, 2005 Author Share Posted April 2, 2005 Thanks for the help guys, and I realize that some of the stuff was reprinted in the B-clubs, but those are also hard to find anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chas Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 (edited) I've had that book since the 80's It's not that bad, granted the line art section is a little week for mechanical designs; there are more character {Minmay} images than anything else, but then again, FlashBack was all about her and not really a mech showcase anyhow, so what d'ya expect? I'll have some scans up as soon as my wife is finished working on the desktop -- maybe half hour to an hour.

UN Spacy Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Thanks for da pics Chas! It's too bad they didn't have too much lineart for Misa, Hikaru, or the bridge of the Megaroad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chas Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 There are some pics in the main body "movie comic" section of the book I could scan. One of them is a good clear shot of Misa sitting in the Captain's chair twiddling some nobs with H-boy in his VF-4 flying beside. My wife is using the desktop and printer/scanner again so it'l be later tonight before I can post them. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renato Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Thank you for all the scans. I appreciate your effort. I remember last time someone scanned an entire book (DestroidsRage scanned the Mac Hobby Handbook), I never saved the thing into my files. Now I'm really sorry that it's no longer around. Anyway, thanks again for providing us all with insights into this elusive book! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chas Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 (edited) Openning illustrations last page, and last one for tonight. What comes next in the book is the Scene Selection basically 42 pages of stills from the animation with written (japanese) descriptions. these should be up by late Sunday night. Does anyone know anything about the legality, or more importantly, potential illegality of posting the entire contents of a book that you do not have the copywrite for onto the web, 'cause I wouldn't want to get anybody (especially myself) in any trouble here.
