I was trying to think why it looked familiar, and yes, it was the dust cover to the original Generations book... which you had in the first post. :o

A couple of internal pages via Twitter https://twitter.com/HobbyJapan_MAG/s...89797793046528
Looking more like the original Generations book, including variants, leaving out English names for Japanese characters (the Beast Wars II crew) but no tech specs numbers.

Why four cheetors?
Back in the day (but 1997 was a long time ago) Cheetor was famous for having a bunch of variants where the eyes were different colours. This is covering them all off.
The interior images make me more reassured about the book... just a bit on the expensive side, and no "annual" this year.
Looks like it might already be sold out on Amazon (when I put in a Japanese postcode), so at least the HLJ listing is the cheaper option... at 3980yen (about AU$52, compared to the Amazon price that currently converts to about AU$57).
Forgot about the tax on HLJ, which adds another 10%... making it just about the same price. :(

4 versions, 3 Hasbro ones (blue, red, green) and 1 Takara one (dark green cheetah eyes, a gold head crest instead of blue, and red robot eyes, beast head pointed forward in robot mode) source
