Re: AC Tokyo Art Folders *Update* Arrived & Pictured!
I know how you feel about your recorded voice. I hate mine too. Unfortunately I think that's how we sound to everyone else as you hear your voice partly through your jaw so you sound different to yourself. Although mice don't help.

The fact that you noticed that means you must have read my whole comment. I was worried I might have made it too long Although I guess it's 90% eyecandy anyways

Yeah most of it after the first section is pics. It's weird if you think about how your the only person who can't hear what you sound like.

Very cool. Where did you acquire these from and at what price? Also, is there any chance you can get anymore?
Embedded video!

I actually bought them on yahoo auctions japan, link below. http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b127479556 After all the fees I had to pay and everything, I think they came out to about 10 USD a folder but I'm not entirely sure as it was kind of a long process. As for getting more, I'm currently waiting on Geralds to talk with some Japanese friends he has, as they should be able to determine how common these are in japan. I believe that the 3 concept art print folders were probably available at multiple events, the art exhibit, tokyo game show etc. Only inside Japan though regardless. The 8 original Japanese artworks/folders were, from what little I can piece together on several Japanese websites, exclusively sold at the art exhibit. I think I saw a comment somewhere that they were supposed to be exclusively sold at the exhibit unless they don't all sell out. In which case, the remainder might be sold elsewhere. Again I have had a lot of trouble finding good info on this. Other problem is the art exhibit was held at 3 separate cities on different dates and considering that this art was specifically done to try and foster interest among Japanese gamers for Assassin's Creed, I imagine these were available for purchase in all 3 cities. I really don't know how common these are/aren't inside japan. If they were only available at the art exhibit, they could be hard to find. If Geralds can't find anymore, I may sell some of mine simply because I doubt I ever could complete the set and would just keep the 3 or 4 I really wanted. Although my favorites have changed since actually seeing them in person I am missing 5 artwork folders, below are pictures of the artwork I'm missing, obviously these are the actual artworks and not folders All of the original artworks can be seen here: http://www.famitsu.com/news/201201/06008078.html Page is in japanese of course, I would recommend google translate if you really want to know what it says but as Geralds has mentioned, it isn't a perfect translation by any means

Yes I'm sure the last one is soul calibur. Not really sure if that was specially commissioned for the art exhibit as it's less focused on Assassin's Creed then the others Btw found a pic of the folders for sale at the art exhibit http://www.famitsu.com/news/201110/i...Dj8Ej19vu.html This really doesn't prove that it wasn't sold elsewhere as well but at the very least, they were most certainly not free. Edit: Actually these might be the postcards??? I think the folders are in the red circle below, hard to tell

Re: Assassin's Creed Tokyo Art Folders *Update* Arrived & Pictured!
There crap tons of art folders or other art folder like stuff all the time stores give this stuff away as like preorder bonus. I wouldnt even be supprised if stores like HMV Japan even gave away nice art calanders as free preorder bonus. Theres a crap ton of exclusive preorder crap and other stuff always giving away a akiraba districts in tokyo as well a lot of that stuff you wont find online ether as most of it you have to be physicaly present to even get it anyway. Japanese also don't seem to have a standard place to sell stuff like how we have ebay, Yes yahoo auctions may be the most popular auction website in Japan but still not enough gets posted on there compared to ebay because of rules banning foriegners from bidding and crap. ALso thanks for that link now i can probably find better information thanks to that link and probably better explain it to some of my Japanese friends.
Here are some of the strange promotional or ther stuff to try and convice japanese to buy stuff like here some assassins creed art work made 100% out of acrylic Last edited by geralds; 11-26-2012 at 06:58 PM. |
