My first edition is in tatters I have used it so often. Pages are falling out and the thing looks like its been through hell. Can't wait for the new edition, its supposed to have all new photos of the vehicles and playsets.
I will be transfering all my info over to the new one as I have used the old one as a checklist of what I have. Its a great way to keep tabs on a collection!
BCDX97 says
The first edition was great. Greatest Joe book of all time. I'm anxious to here what changes were made. I don't know if I want the 2nd edition, my book is not in tatters at all, but hopefully it does have better vehicle pics.
Flame Viper says
Why does it not have stuff from 94 to present??
My 1st edition is still in great shape.

The first book is awesome. I hope this one comes out with ever better pictures. At least that is what I think it will be. If it does, I may buy it.

I met Mark Bellomo at Canadian Joe Con.
He had copies of his new Joe and Transformer books with him.
He said that all of the images had been re-shot and now included isometric views.
I was able to spend a few minutes looking through it and it looked amazing (only looked at the Joe book).
He was great to talk to and he signed my v1 book.
I can't wait for the new one.
Thanks for the scoop on the release date change.

I love this book. I'm excited to see the updates and new pics! I wonder how many total pages?
NightForceHorde says

cheers on any leads. as i have to buy 2 of them one for my son and one for me. he is 2 1/2 and loves to look at each page and say i have this one. i like this one. kids and joes are great
Joecom says
I liked his first book. There are a few Typos in it and 1 picture duplicate.of course its not a big deal. I wonder if he goes into some of the later 93-94 figures as far as mail order figures, and early convention, and door prize or give away figures that where sealed in a bag with no accessories. its hard trying to find info on that online like I have a 1985 Keel haul sealed from a Chuckie E cheese game prize
