I do like artbooks.
Where can this book be bought? How much was it? Do you think it's a quality item for fans of ALL the PSOs/U ?

I got mine via Amazon (Other Sellers). It goes for $42 + $4 shipping there. I've also seen it on Play Asia.

Yes, it is a great artbook. It has at least 1-2 pages for every game in the saga and all releases/re-releases. It has maybe 10 pages on PSO (I already had 2 books for those), but a ton of pages for PS02. I can't remember how many pages for the Universe games but they are all featured as well as PS Zero and the PSP versions.

191 pages total

Ah, saw a few pictures of this on some blogs. I have been so tempted to buy it. Love the artbooks of Phantasy Star games. They consist of some wonderful ideas/concepts that had to be scrapped sadly. :/

Very curious of what is shown for PSO2 though.

Here are a ton of images that ebay seller japan-ssdyuk is hosting to promote the book.

(when looking for Japanese art books its always good to hit Ebay, find the Japanese sellers and many of their listings will host a ton of pics so you can see what the artbook is like. then you can shop around to buy it if it interests you)

Whoa, who's that guy in the blue cape suit, from the blue burst image.

I've never seen that dude before. Or perhaps he didn't make it to the final game?

He's Leo Grahart.

I think he was in the Episode 4 part of story mode.

I already answered you in Skype, but I'll post it up here in case other people wonder the same.

That's Leo Graheart, the orchestrator behind the events of PSO's Episode IV.

EDIT: Ninja'd.

On a side note, thanks for the pictures.

The artbook looks really nice!

Awesome pictures and man, Kai dodging a ton of lazers. I wish that was in the game.
