Just bought the European Limited Edition of the game One Piece Pirate Warriors (PS3)

and Midnight Volume 2 (from Osamu Tezuka in French) at a Swiss website they claim to have it in stock but seeing how rare it is i'm not sure if i will get it from them.

I just bought two sets of KAPPA COMICS reprints of MIGHTY ATOM. I hope these are in chronological order, as that would mean they will likely include many of the stories that I lack, since the 1st 2 volumes of the SHONEN / KAPPA reprints were sold out when I 1st learned of them.

I had expected an earlier version, but it was not to be. $350 for these!? :sick: :sick:

Oh, no! Can you return them, Jeffbert?

That's why I'm practically paranoid about ordering anything from unfamiliar (to me) sources.

But, I guess, no guts, no glory, because I also don't have books and videos I'd love to own,

Maybe someone else would like to buy that set you just received....?

I am considering breaking up the sets, & selling the individual 12 volumes separately on eBay, though no time soon.

I just won an ebay action for Tezuka's book about his drawn Insects and it also includes a short manga about it (osamu Tezuka Book: Konchuu TsurezureGusa) it was printed in Japan in 1996 and is verry rare because of the biding i only paid 10,99 for it and another 10 for shipping.

Don't know if the manga story is from the Lion books ? that i already have in French anyway it's a really nice addition to my Tezuka collection, when i saw Tezuka's insect drawings on the DVD the secret of creation years back i knew i wanted this.
here are some pictures they don't really give away how nice this book is but o well

You're not a joke, you fit right in!
So shake it off, and give a grin. Don't be afraid to stand your ground! Crazy, noisy BIZARRE Town!

Seeing as I was just at an art gallery on my America trip, I got a book about Japanese architecture, a book about Hiroshige, a lenticular bookmark with The Kiss by Gustav Klimt on it, and an art card I'll send at Christmas to a girl I like.
