Simply an amazing piece of animation memorabilia by the late great author who is undoubtedly considered one of the top 10 most important people in the history of Japanese animation, in the same league as Tezuka Osamu, Mizuki Shigeru, Miyazaki Hayao, Nagai Go, Ishinomori Shotaro, and many more... Anno Hideaki, the director of Neon Genesis Evangelion, has even said that "There would be no Evangelion without Yamato." (and probably the Gundam franchise too) and many enthusiasts as well as critics agree that even George Lucas was heavily influenced by it as well, with the idea of R2D2 from Star Wars being inspired by the Analyzer, as well as many ships and mechanical designs. It is also worth mentioning that the plot line of Battlestar Galactica that is said to have been almost entirely derived from Yamato. With its astonishing size, gorgeous presentation, and incredible execution as well as vibrant colors, this amazing piece of anime/manga history from a truly important work is sure to be a centerpiece in any collection!
