Yup, I cannot recommend volume 1 nor volume 2. Very disappointing and an easy pass on both.

Ditto on this one as well....just thumbed through it as a local bookstore the other day....book is 90% text with very few stills.
Thanks for the info!
Here are my latest purchases over the last few months:
The newest Hobby Japan Kiryu/Godzilla book. This is an awesome book with tons of new photos, including pics of the Godzilla 54 suit they used in the film.
The Godzilla 84 book is excellent. The two Kiryu books below are good, though the newest book pictured above is better IMO.
I got the Godzilla Pictorial books based on the recommendations here (thanks Eb and Klen), and these are incredible.
This Ultraman book is awesome - highly recommended if you are a fan of the original series. It is loaded with pics.
