Sorry, forgot to crop this.
It's volumes 1-15 of the original manga. (well, I believe it was redistributed)
The complete 2003 series (present from my father, hadn't watched the new show before, so I watched all 50 episodes over a long period of weeks while eating rice cakes LOL)
Then, I don't know if it counts, but it's a book on how to animate things by Osamu Tezuka. He uses Astro as an instructor, so I decided to put this in.
That's all I have for Osamu Tezuka, as well, except for Phoenix Karma.
Wait...my post made no sense. Disregard it. :d evil:
I'm sorry to hear about the bad news, hopefully you'll be the winner in the end. Wish you the best of luck, the figures are looking awesome indeed!
Btw, it wasn't me who outbid you, just to make sure. I'm registered at eBay for 4 years now, and the only figure I ever bought so far has been the 15.7" Astro plush. I won't buy any Astro figures as long as they're not becoming available in life-size.
