Shenmue Collections & Merchandise

[Bluecast]

Well if considering mags with loose mentions then yeah I got a bunch.

[Peter]

Well i have a load of ODM with loose mentions, but i wouldnt post them as part of a Shenmue Collection (the issues of ODM UK where they excitedly discovered that previous Shenmue pictures they posted in the run up to Shenmue were actually of Shenmue II are hilarious). But that OXM US issue is the Shenmue 2 review issue, so any gaming magazines with Shenmue reviews i would include as part of a Shenmue collection.

[Bluecast]

Not counting the reviews this is the mags scans I uploaded to the site for previews and articles.

Apologies dude ive never seen them before! I have every Official Dreamcast Magazine, so i could go through them and get you every Shenmue related article to add to that archive if you want?

What Xbox magazine is that, Peter? Issue number, I mean. Does OXM have any mags with Shenmue features in them, besides the review?

[Peter]

Its Official Xbox Magazine (US) December 2002, issue #13.

Took a while to work out that it was the December issue since the game is classed as being reviewed in Noveber 2002 by OXM. Also picked up the UK edition of OXM containing the Shenmue 2 review so thats also added to the collection.

What is the number of the OXM UK mag?

[Peter]

I bought OXM #6, but it turns out its #15!!!

Ah well at least #16 has a complete walkthrough.


Has anyone here ever heard of the Shenmue Artbook?

WOOHOO! It arrived today! The Shenmue Art book!Probably will be the most prized thing i will own in my Shenmue collection (until i get the Timex Watch!). Apparently this is rare according to the person i buy my stuff of in Japan. Some facts he managed to pick up about the item are that it was a very limited edition print, which was only at available at the Sega retail booth of the Tokyo Games Show 1999 for 6700Y. Very few have been seen over the years, and even less in recent times due to Sega Freakz, a Japanese Sega store in Akihbara, Tokyo closing down. Along with this, all AM2 related art books are hard to locate, so im happy to say the least!! I have only posted a couple of pictures here, i will post more in the art book forum.

Jealous. ^

How are you buying this stuff? eBay?
