    This book was released on the 2nd of April, according to Amazon.com, currently listed for $59.99

    Yet, it's reviews a dated 2011/2012 ... some of the reviews mention the book costing $500 or so ... is this a different version of an original release? If not, why the dramatic price reduction?

    Does anyone here have this book? It looks pretty cool, but also expensive ... just wanted to get some feedback here before I throw away some hard earned...

    Oh, Blueprints. I was hoping this was uncovered film of Fode and Beed doing raunchy stand-up comedy or something.

    Does anyone have any feedback on this book? Worth the $$$?

    The 1st publication (September 2011), was a very limited (5,000) edition:
    336 pages, including 10 gatefolds
    Hand-numbered title page
    15.5” wide by 18.5” tall (39.4 cm wide by 47 cm tall)
    Custom-dyed cloth material case
    certificate of authenticity signed by Epic Ink President Andrew S. Mayer

    This more general version is the same book, but not limited and very very much cheaper:
    336 pages (according to Amazon)
    17.4 x 15.8 x 1.9 inches

    So in my opinion, if you are into this, YES, this is certainly worth your hard-earned credits!

    Custom-dyed cloth material case, you say?

    Guess that's the blueprint clothing Havac was alluding to.

    It's definitely not a book that you can take into the bathroom with you.

    OMG!

    I received this in the post today. Wow! Sure, I read the dimensions that you guys described above; I just didn't visualize how fracking huge this book is!
