Kow Yokoyama’s Maschinen Krieger originally debuted in the pages of Hobby Japan in 1982 under the name SF3D, blending a hard sci-fi story with photos of original scratch built models. The resulting series created by Yokoyama and Hiroshi Ichimura would inspired dozens of plastic kits, an untold number of garage kits, and lots of books and other merchandise. After copyright issues hampered SF3D in the late ‘80s, the series returned in the late ‘90s under the new name: Maschinen Krieger. 

This expansive two-book set reproduces the entirety of SF3D's run in Hobby Japan between 1982 and 1985. Pages are reproduced as they originally ran in the magazine – right down to the advertisements. Because these are the original pages you'll find photos, art, and details that didn't make it into later Maschinen Krieger books. Includes lots of interesting extras like fan art, articles about how the photographs were taken for the magazine, and more. Two softcover books in cardboard slipcase.
