For those planning to get this book, I'm just noting that this book was indeed released the other day (which is why we've been seeing a number of scans of pages with future MP toys and the ballot of 10 possible exclusives for Vol 2).
Price in Japan is about 2,700 yen, which is about AU$28-30... if you can find one online somewhere, seek out one close to that price.

No need to look around, if you want the book just get it from the Amazon link in Griffin's post - works out around $41 AU including shipping.

Doh!... I completely forgot that Amazon JP does ship internationally, just not toys.
(I bought a DVD from there once... because it had a bonus toy)

So yes, the Amazon JP link should be about as good as you will get this.

Yep, just under AU$41 posted, compared to the two on ebay at the moment for about $60 posted.
Just a shame they don't ship toys... imagine the business they'd do.

Too bad we can't get Overdrive, Downshift and Camshaft at once.

This issue of the book is choc full of eye candy and of the usual high quality we have come to expect I to wish we could get the exclusive sent international
I got two copies (one for a friend) through Amazon JP and paid around $75 shipped. Talk about light speed delivery. I kid you not on this... ordered Tuesday, got shipping confirmation on Wednesday, on my doorstep Friday (the same week)
