Absolutely.
I would pre-order multiple copies, and give this as a great holiday gift to friends that love Joe lore, even the non-collectors. I would cherish it.

Definately. Card art, box art & cover art from the catalogs/inserts that came with the vehicles would make this a no brainer for me. If they even made the posters available (like the one from 82-83 showing the joe vehicles & troops in combat) I would preorder in a heart beat.

I put this on FB, but not many saw it....This is an image of an unreleased vehicle, the Revenge. The only pic I saw prior to the ones I got was a fuzzy one from an old magazine on yojoe.com. Enjoy!

I have no idea what the legal consequences would be if I tried to sell my little side project which I posted earlier in the year
http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...e-posters.html But I'm prety sure Marvel would be very upset and have an angry mob of lawyers on my doorstep. |

Just wanted to give everyone an update. I'm still waiting to hear back from Hasbro regarding this project and whether this would be something they would support and assist in providing images of designs, models, etc. Here is another sneak peek of what the book would include.....please continue to voice support over this project if you want to see it come to light. I've been working on it since summer of 09' and would love to honor the men and woman who worked on something that we all love and enjoy!
Here is an image of Ferret, Destro's Demon Driver. What’s interesting about this color study is how it compares to the final version of the character. Many of the areas that are red ended up being black, while many of the black areas ended up being red. This was a common practice amongst the designers when determining the final colors of a character. BTW...watermarks would be removed of course if I can get this going! |

I'd love a 1982-1994 art book that included figure card art, vehicle box art, and catalogue/poster/book cover illustrations. Just the polished, finished artwork though. I think if you start adding concept art/sketches/color studies, it gets too inconsistent.
The card art and vehicle art had a very consistent style and would make one hell of an oversized coffee table hardcover! |
