A bunch of my collection got scanned to use for this book, and I know some other people around here have been providing assistance to Andrew. I'm looking forward to seeing what the final product ends up being.

Andrew has asked me to scan some stuff, and I haven't had access to a scanner larger than A4 sadly. However... (!)... now I'm in a proper office for work, they have an A3 printer/scanner, so I may be able to do some of my collection on there.

Based on the reviews of the Looney Tunes Treasury, expect many dialogue bubbles by most of the main characters. Note the words "lavishly illustrated", meaning that this is more of a visual history book as opposed to some good hard facts like "Transformers: The Ultimate Guide". As it is, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Treasury in 1991 was a good book for its time giving a pretty good account of the franchise since most people never knew what the Internet was back then. But of course not only so much stuff has happened since then, lots of details about the production behind the pre-1991 stuff has been discovered. Let's hope this book is as informative as it is as illustrative.

Hmmm... I'm skeptical. Could be really good, though.

Someone mentioned this Annual Deluxe Edition back in August on a different thread. I don't know what it is, but I pre-ordered it anyway LOL.

As far as Radical Mutations, I'll probably hold off for reviews first.
