Worth it for the extras!!! I purchased this book just for the extra cutaways! I had a few of the others, but this one was worth it to me as I am a fan of the first set of films and characters and this book had more ships from ROTJ that were unavailable before. Really cool and to me, completely worth it. They added the A-Wing and the B-wing among others. forget the individual books, just get this one, especially if you are a fan of the original films designs.
Presentativo! Este libro contiene muchas imagenes de las naves mas emblematicas de la saga de Star Wars, muy interesante y detalles que alimentarán tu imaginación.
top job top book It took less than the time predicted to the "land downunder" and my son and I haven't been able to put this book down. I'm in awe of the service and price, well done amazon.
Great Content, Though Missing Some Important Items This is a great purchase just for the artwork and technical information, even for a casual Star Wars fan like myself. I found the Prequel sections to be far more interesting and informative, though. I'd recommend this for anyone who likes sci-fi tech.
I was disappointed however, in the lack of a few key ships and a station. I was really looking forward to getting a look at the inner workings of the Executor and Bespin, as well as the Bespin escort ships. I feel like the Executor in particular is a pretty glaring omission.
But overall, highly recommended.
The brand new book arrived in perfect shape. The book arrived in perfect order, the content is excellent. It was worth purchasing it.
