Could anyone compare the small black 200pages artbook with the one of European collector's /Prestige?

Compare the pages or the book? The book for EU/PE is an A4 book, not the tiny book US got.

I mean the content, because I suspect there's some content of the Euro A4 version which is not in the smaller US/A5 one, for example some drawings at min 4:20 here:

shouldn't be in the "Bosses" section of the smaller Artbook(A5)

I have the A4 book arriving in a few weeks and can do some comparisons

Many thanks, very very much appreciated!! I'm interested to know if EVERY content of the A5 is also in the A4, (I already know something being in the A4 isn't in the A5).

I'll do my best to go over it all. I'm sure there is someone here who'd be able to do it sooner, but if not, I'll let you know once I do.

I chatted with this guy on eBay, and I like the stuff he has, but he has to work on his printing/photoshop skills. The images are so low-res.

Any news from Xhunter for comparison? Thanks

Here, I'll go through it right now.

Check back in about 15 minutes.

They are nearly identical. The only differences being some page layouts/image layouts are changed to fit in either side book. Or rearranged since the sections are put together a bit differently.

From a quick glance, it looks like both of them have some small pieces of art that the other doesn't. But nothing important, I mean like one of them has a closeup on the detail of a handrailing, and the other has a little sketch of a tower that the other doesn't have.

All the important pieces are in both books. I would say you only need one. Of course the presentation in the bigger book is better, but if you have the smaller one, you're getting just as much as they have in the bigger one, I would say.
