Forgive me if this is already posted somewhere else, but I didn't find it so I figured I should bring it up. Have any of you seen this new artbook that came out last month? You can check it out here:
http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2 ... d-in-japan and it's also listed on ebay if you want to check it out there. It's a 240 page artbook, spanning art from 1985 to 2013. I found it interesting that it goes all the way up to the current year, makes me wonder what all Toriyama did art wise more recently. Of course, there'll be stuff for Battle Of Gods but I just wonder what all the book entails, as no completely extensive info is out on it that I can find. I guess I should just shut up and invest in a copy haha. I'm new by the way, hello!
Again, please forgive me if this was already posted.

To be fair, Crunchyroll calling it the "Ultra Complete Artbook" isn't very helpful, especially when it's literally named "Super Art Collection"
in English in the book itself, which we also/always reference alongside its Japanese title
