the official mook compliment thread

I dont have anything against the folks in the section. I'd like to think those I dont know are all nice people whom I would dig chatting with. I dont mind hearing about who they are, what they collect so on etc. But just a photo of them? Thats the beef for me. It comes across as an elitist ego boost. Obviously not intentional, nor is my criticism a bash on them but rather on the layout/format of how it was put together.

I think the section is a good idea but heres what I would like to see next time. Small headshot of the person, like 1x1, personal info. The rest are shots of their collection.

 

I have to disagree.

I was actually hoping for maybe some sexier poses, maybe by a fire place, and a centerfold would be AWESOME. I also want to know do they like long walks on the beach underneath the moonlight? What turns them on? What is their turn offs?

I mean seriously, we have all seen pictures of toy collections, thats old news bears.

 

Brian asked me to be a part of the section. I have known him for years and knew I collested a ton of different stuff so I accepted and contributed. We were told to take a pic of use with our fave toy - one no Collection shots. It didn't want to turn into "who's dick is bigger" article (pardon my johnson reference there ladies of the board).

Now - CS you should of seen the pic I sent they didn't use. Lets just say the house covered up the most important part.

Hey - too each their own. Some like certain sections some love others. Pics and aricles on stuff (with words) = knowledge!

 

i liked the one eyed cat.

 

I accept the fact that my oppinion may be away from the norm. Nuff said.

Seriously? Wow, I am totally secure with the size of my collection. It may not be as big as others but Im cool with it. It excites me to look at big collections.

 

You'd be surprised at how many people don't want to take photos of their complete collection, much less have a headshot photo next to a collection photo.

 

I'll be at the top of that freakin' list, for sure.

 

Out of pure curiousity... why?

 

Yeah ..... never actually seeing your mug or collection shot I'm doubting your an actual collector. I think your a narc !

 

Well with all the people openly admitting that they sniff vinyl...

We now return you to the official mook compliment thread already in progress...

 

lol

 

response gratefully respected.

 

It'd take some pretty serious bait for me to trade my pile of lint and used dog biscuits . . . but Im always open to offers!

 

I liked the collector section - the glossy layout and big pictures made the rest of the mook AWESOME to look at - don't see why you'd change it for that part. Loved it all - great read - well done S7!!! Better hop to on the new one though, i'm getting impatient

 

what colorway of the biscuit? Ive got a unpainted proto lint. PM me

 

Taupe . . . I think it's the über limited liver flavour from '06. Unfortunately I'm already good on the proto lint . . . I would be real interested in any GID if you have it though.

Hope you and all the S7 crew overindulged to the enth degree in the name of Christmas (or whatever holiday you choose to celebrate) and are now feeling suitably remorseful.

 

Any reason why the slipcase with mine does not have the gold foil on it?

 

so are we getting these in Japan??

 

its the limited subscriber black on black version.

 

Ahh sweet that's what i figured. Thanks. Mook is beautiful. Above and beyond all of my expectations.

 

Regardless of who's in it, the Mook exceeds my expectations - teh design is very clean, and the photography, especially in the SecretBase section is excellent. I would love a print of page 52, the translucent Skullbees.

Personally I would have liked a larger size book purely beacuse teh pic are so great, but its sizing is in keeping with teh Mook tradition.

Anyone who took teh time to sign-up for this board (apart from Viagra_penis_enlarger_259) will not be disappointed, in fact this is an essential purchase!

Give em to friends as well, shame Christmas is almost over.

 

Received the mook on Monday; spent much of my Xmas relaxin' time yesterday perusing it. Beautiful; so worth the wait. The Toho kaiju pictorial is remarkable- eye candy in the extreme. Secret Base and RxH really aren't my bag, but out of sheer enjoyment of the layout and design, I pored over those sections in their entirety again and again. The writing is uniformly great. I really enjoyed the interview w/ Shin; my head took a spin when I read the part about him finding the packaged Ultra Q vinyls in the garbage at that warehouse!

GREAT JOB, S7!

 

I really appreciated the favorite toy section. I am really overwhelmed when I see massive collection pics. It was really cool to see every collector had a whole different special toy and reason why.

Tongue you looked the happiest with your toy and you don't look over 39.

Khanate seems like he is on a mission from God to get every last Cronic!
