Mine turned up yesterday (minus the prints, but that's no biggie).
Not very impressed with the postal packaging though - very thin card, taped up on one side that made opening the package a bit of a pain, and the bottom right corner of the hardback has taken a knock and is a bit squished.

Bit worried about how the prints are going to look when they arrive, to be honest.

That said, the hardback is a thing of beauty. Repro droids have done a great job, can't wait to give it a read!

Tempting, although I already own the previous release.

Absolute quality throughout, and the legendary Hibernia level of reproduction is as good as always.
Ortiz's grey washes are a sight to behold!

Deserves to sell out again!

I just stoped playing Andromeda for a moment to checked Nier: Automata and... I don't think I'll be back to Andromeda anytime soon.

Bought NieR:Autonama on a drunken whim after reading this post.
Thank you! It's fantastic!

Hack n' slash meets RPG, with some Ashley Wood-esq robots thrown in for good measure. Brilliant!

Sorry.. 

Two pages and no mention of Revenge of Shinobi? The game that featured Spider-Man and Batman as villains? And was awesome? Shame.

I also bought the CD-Rom add-on from a mate for £50.
That's £50 I won't see again...

Kudos to all involved, and the worthy winners. CFM is, as always, a board demi-God for his continued work.

Any word yet on the Droid's Choice for Feb?

Covers one of Clint's best.

Which should read 'The cover is one of Clint's best so far'.

Another superb prog!

Not much to add after Colin's post, but I was a bit more thrilled with the Future Shock.
The Yeowell droid is turning in some of his best work in years recently, and this is no exception. Script ain't shoddy either.

Covers one of Clint's best.

Wall to wall brilliance, this prog. Extra oil rations all round!

Yes! Hardback still available and ordered. Count one more happy squaxx!

Whats the difference between virgin olive oil, and regular olive oil?

How good is Nick Dyer's art on that FS.  I could look at it all day, the brilliance of the light, the 3D modelling of the distinctive faces, the use of empty spaces in panels...

In fact, together with McCrea, Brooker, Culbard and Kendall I'd defy anyone to find another comic that has a fresher, more stylistically diverse and utterly gorgeous roster of storyreling art.

Yes, this is the best Nick Dyer art I've seen to date - I think I prefer him in black and white - and also the best McCrea art I've seen.  The latter has a touch of Vince Locke and also Frank Miller when he was good, and the 80's letratone effects just elevate it to the sublime.  Like I say, top prog. 

agreed - Dyer's inking is fantastic - the lighting and shadows are really well done. He just gets better and better.

And those others are pretty darn fine too!

Yep, the Dyer droid's star is certainly shining right now.
More Nick Dyer please Tharg!

Exposition heavy, but I really cannot wait for this!

Best prog in ages! And considering how good the prog's been recently, that's quite the achievement!

The cover is a superb bit of design, brilliant stuff.

Dredd - Now we're talking. So many different directions this story could take, can't wait to see how it pans out. McCrea's art is sublime, the new Mechanismo unit looks absolutely ace.

Brink continues to be utterly fascinating, and I still think Culbard's art style would be perfect for animation.

Great future shock, if a little compressed. As said, Nick Dyer's art is always a welcome pleasure in the prog.

Scarlet Traces also continues to be fascinating, and I just drown in the colourful majesty of D'Isreali's work.

Deadworld has connected with me in a way the previous series didn't. Can't put my finger on it, but i'm truly adoring every panel at the minute. I really want a sarcastic byke of my own...

9/10. As good as a prog gets 

Never read much Brigand Doom, but I liked the few episodes that I did manage to catch.
Certainly some untapped potential in the character, maybe time for someone to pitch a new series to Tharg.

It'd be good to see Dave D'Antiquis back in the prog, failing that i reckon Jock could have a good stab at it.
