Tenjin Hidetaka Art Work Valkyries book.

MWer Major Tom brought this to my attention. As he hasn't posted the news in the forums, I thought I would post it.

There is going to be a Tenjin Hidetaka Art Work Valkyries book released this month.

For those who don't know, Tenjin is the talented artist who does the Macross box art for the Hasegawa Macross model kits. He has also done many other Macross illustrations, such as the Japanese R2 Macross Plus 2 box DVD set and some of the illustrations on the Macross 2000 calendar.

I've been wanting someone to publish his work in book form for ages.

You can preorder it here: -

I'm soooo getting one of these .

[AlphaHX]

YES! FINALLY!

[Dobber]

Will this have his current work or is this the older ones he did for the calender? Either way I'm getting it, just curious if it'll have M0 stuff also.

Not sure, but hopefully it will have all his work for Hasegawa, up to and including the Macross Zero kits box art.

NICE! Preordered!

[Dangard Ace]

Sweet. Since I never received the Macross Calendar I bought from a reputable ex-member here I've been itching to find another one. This book eliminates that need.

This would be a verrrrrry cruel April Fools joke. However, since HLJ isn't really known for pulling pranks like that I'm going to believe this is true.

[Myersjessee]

SWEET!

I'm in!

[peter]

I want! Is it released in Japan yet? I'm going there today.

I hope so too, the box art from the Ivanov SV-51 is just too cool.

[MGREXX]

Now that is nice.

Two books on my list for Comic Con.

This one and mikimotos.

The ISBN for the book is ISBN: 4334901247.

I am not sure about the cost though as there are sites listing it for YEN4,000, while also some list it as YEN4,200!

Hope this helps

¥4000 is the retail price. ¥4200 is including the Japanese sales tax. If you are ordering from overseas this extra ¥200 sales tax should not apply.
