Welcome / Welcome Back

There are a few things I feel I need to say regarding the scans that I share on this journal.

Up until now all my posts have been public and open with no restrictions or rules.

Sharing scans of the calendar from the EPCOTIA Tour.

The format of the calendar was again different. This time it featured a cardboard cover featuring the actual calendar. It was about the size of on old vinyl record album cover - if anyone remembers those.

Inside were similarly sized, double-sided photo spreads for each member, as well as a sheet of stickers. All are included in these scans.

Still a lot to get through for the EPCOTIA tour - and a pile of magazines. I've just not been able to be very productive this year, but I'm going to keep chipping away at the pile.
 
Sharing in this post the official shop photos released at the start of the EPCOTIA tour from the goods shooting.
 
Sharing the full set of photos which were 8 for each member.

I'm sorry it's taken so long to get started on the tour goods, but finally the pamphlett is finished.
     
All pages are double page spreads - (ovbiously they love to make them more of a challenge) - so this is a much larger download than regular scans.

Still catching up.

And maybe I've been dragging my feet because with these issues we reach the end of an era.
 
These are the final issues of Duet, Potato and WinkUp that feature NEWS as a regular group. In that particular Japanese euphemism they have 'graduated' from these magazines as a group. As a mark of that Duet has a final manga, Potato gave them a cover and poster, and WinkUp had a poster.
 
So unless something truly extraordinary happens these will be my last scans of these magazines.

It's a little late I know, but finally sharing the full set of official shop photos released with the EPCOTIA album.
   
There are 31 photos in all, including 6 solo photos for each member.

Still working at getting caught up on my scanning, but I will get there.

So here are the April issues of Myojo, Popolo and BITEKI.

From here there is only one more issue for NEWS in Myojo, Popolo, Duet, Potato and WinkUp before they 'graduate' into the beyond.

I'm still way behind on gettin caught up with scans, but I am slowly getting there.
   
This batch of magazines is from earlier this year and features - Monthly TV Guide, QLAP, Songs, TV Guide Alpha, TV Guide Person and a few others.
   
There are a number of two page groups spreads as well as poster from QLAP as well the piano score for BLACK FIRE.

Sharing one last set of photos from the NEVERLAND tour.
 
This set of photos managed to get mislaid to the point where I had convinced myself that I didn't even get around to buying them. But they did resurface and it's such a memorable moment that they need to be shared.

I'm still trying to get caught up on the backlog of magazines that I have on hand as time allows. This year has presented a few personal challenges, however, I will get them all scanned, as well as tour goods and photos over the coming weeks.
 
And finally, here are the March issues of Duet, Potato and WinkUp, which feature a poster in Duet.
