Nicolas from Mandarake has annouced the release of a new Zenbu and that the next Big Web Auction will be in April !!

If there is no screenshot in the english section of Mandarake, this is some in the french section :

Does anybody have already bought the Zenbu #30 ? I know already that there is a lot of Saint Seiya, Captain Harlock and Mazinger but I don't have others informations.

Curiously, there is a fold-out photo montage with pictures of the new Neo Mandarake, but no information of how to obtain one; even if one has bought all of the Zenbu this year. Perhaps, like the Zenbu subscription, it is a "Japan only" thing now?

Any Sailormoon cels up for grabs in this Zenbu? The last two Zenbus were rather dissapointing in terms of SM cels.

This is the page with Sailor Moon cels:

I hope that helps.

Any gundam cels this time around? I'd buy the Zenbu myself except that I have yet to actually bid on a BWA item...

Anything from noir, ah my goddess, or cowboy bebop in the zenbu?

heh heh add me to the "too curious" list

"I want, I want" [as above] LOL! Yes, I'm laughing at you.

I'm hoping there's nothing in it that interests me this time round. I'm having a job keeping up with the regular Mandarake and YJ auctions

Everyone should be saving their pennies regardless. Prime items often come along when you least expect it.

Yep... there's always nice stuff, but usually priced way too high for me to justify spending the cash on the Zenbu.

There is wisdom in your words.

I hope there is nothing I want in there either. But the way BWAs have gone for me lately, there will either be nothing I want or a few things I sort-of-want that will get bid too high. There are too many die hard bidders in Big Web Auctions.

I want more BWA artwork from the "happy middle." - items high enough in quality that I like it, but not so high that a lot of other people will as well. Those are the types of auctions I CAN win and be happy with.

This won't be a popular opinion but don't you have to wonder if the people that actually purchased this catalog get a bit ticked when people ask about what's in the catalog especially if they're asked for scans of the pages? I understand that it's hard to justify spending money on the zenbu if you've never participated in the auction but you'll get your chance to look at the cels when they put them up for auction.

I feel the same way when someone asks me to copy a CD for them that I've just purchased. I spent the money and now you want me to give it to you for free? Ass! Not to mention that there are probably some copyright laws regarding posting scans.

Buy it or wait.
