Megami Magazine Madness!

As FlareKnight mentioned in a post last week, the 17thy was my birthday. I am a very selfish person and so I usually always use occasions like this as an excuse to spend a lot of money on myself. This year I decided to give myself A LOT of Megami magazines. I?ve always been fairly limited in my collection of anime merchandise. It?s mainly just been limited to figures however at a couple of conventions I’ve bought a couple of art books and I?ve grown more and more to like them. I figured a subscription to Megami Magazine would be something that is along those lines to help further progress such a collection. However I can?t just buy myself a subscription, there?s not much to show for it right away so I decided to buy over 20 previous issues in addition to the subscription, including Deluxe and Creators. Big pictures of all I have after the jump.

This post is to show what my jumpstarted collection is like and to simply express this acquisition. Seeing as how this is an anime site and Megami is an anime magazine, it seems to fit rather well. I won?t be doing scans or full in depth pictures of the magazines as there are plenty of people there who cut the magazines open and get like 5million x 4million pixel resolution shots of these which I don?t have any reason to compete with. But here is just a shot of my collection and to let you know of this.

I do have to say though, even though there are plenty of people with far bigger collections then mine I think I did DAMN good for a collection being this size when I only started less than a month ago :D

Here is a big shot of all of them side by side. Clicking the picture will link to a MUCH bigger shot so you can actually see what they are.

Here are some quick individual shots of the issues:

First up all of my Creator magazines. I have to say that overall I like them. The feel of them is much more like an artbook then a magazine and a lot of time I think the pictures are of more original art then just popular series, which is a nice contrast.

Here are the Megami Deluxe issues. Although these, like Creators, don?t contain any pullouts it is nice because it is pretty much 100% pictures of the posters and image, not containing a lot of other clutter. Though sometime that other clutter the magazine brings is nice, having just the art together is nice as well.

Somewhat going along with the Deluxes, here is the Super Deluxe which is rather easy to find and very well priced for such a huge art book. It basically contains all the bet images in a fashion like Deluxe does with no pull outs of the first 100 Megami magazines.

I felt Megami Super Deluxe was the perfect thing to get considering my actual Megami collection starts off at Vol. 100 which was very hard to find, as shown down below still in shrink-wrap. The rest of the issues follow.

And although I didn?t take pictures of all the big posters included in these or the pull outs, two of the last three I believe also or alternatively had something other than a big poster which I figured warranted a quick shot.

Here is a pencil board, both sides of it. I don?t know what to actually do with a ?pencil board? other than treat it as art but that?s what I would do even if I fully understood the need of it.

And here is something very nice that was included with the latest issue, 108, instead of a big poster it had a little memorial book for Clannad After Story. Seeing as how I love Clannad this was a great addition. Plus the latest Deluxe had a big Clannad After Story poster anyways so everything worked out great.

Anyways, that?s all there is for now. I?ll try and do a post when I get a new one and a quick impression on it, but nothing so detailed like scans as I mentioned. So, who else collects Megami?
