Gundam Wing revolves around young pilots sent to earth to attack a corrupt government. Giant robots, invincible boys, and futuristic landscapes mark the work of this innovative studio. This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a great book! It's worth the money! If you know Gundam like I do then you'll love this book. It has pictures from the Endless Waltz as well as some from the earlier movies. The pictures are very colorful and quite creative. Each character is given a few pages of pictures. If you are familiar with the pics on the trading cards, they're there too! Also the covers of the movies are included. I highly reccomend this book to anyone seeking help on drawing the Gundam Wing characters or just looking for a peice to add to their collection!
Gundam Wing! Need I say more?

Hm... I happen to LOVE this book. I own it. Bought it at a different website (animenation.com) with a different cover, but it's the same pictures... And the pictures are great! There were quite a few I hadn't seen before (example 1: the one of Treize and Une's head from the side. example 2: one with both Milliardo and Zechs (Milliardo with his mask on) from the side and a full shot of Noin from the front). The whole thing is layed out very nicely. I give it... *drumroll* Ten out of ten thumbs up! Eh... Right. Anyway...
Beautiful, engrossing, and just plain satisfying!

For all those die-hard Gundam fans who were disappointed with the three-volume manga, this will more than make up for it.Like the title says, this book displays a collection of pictures -- original ones or screenshots from the anime -- that is, simply, the art of "Gundam Wing." The book does a good job of fairly balancing the pictures of the five pilots as well as other important characters. For those who surf the web a great deal, many of these pictures will be recognized immediately. And many people might also notice that the pictures are a lot crisper, clearer, and cleaner than some found on fansites, which is alone worth the price of the book.However, there is also a good deal of pictures that have most likely not been found on the internet (although they probably will be soon because of people with scanners and a lot of free time). These pictures heighten the worth of the book, and the fact that they were drawn by the artists who worked on the anime makes it all the more satisfying. After all, where do the original artists take the time to add more of their talent to a collection of already-beautiful artwork?All in all, there was only once complaint I had, and that was that the book was a little short. The book is only about 96 pages of art, with a brief interview with the artists. Despite this setback, the book is definately a must-have for anyone who's ever enjoyed the artwork and wants to gloss over it for days on end. Try and say something like that about "Pokemon"!

This is a great book for anyone into Gundam Wing! It's basically just an awesome picture gallery of mostly the characters and with some pictures of their gundams. All the pictures are on nice glossy paper with good sharp color. Some of the pictures are screen captures from the anime series and there are also some cool original character arrangements by the gundam artists. Other than the pilots, the book also has pictures of Treize, Zecks, Dorothy, Noin, and Lady Une. Some of the pictures you could probably find on the internet, but there's some in this book I've never seen anywhere before plus it's all arranged in a nice book. This is definetly a great buy for any Gundam fan.
