    My resistance is melting more and more. They're not that expensive, so I might get the Team A PB.
    Although... Team K would be cool too. AHRG I hate decisions.

    Anyways, I will get one of those. At least one.

    True, there are plenty of seeds but these girls are the top ones as they are currently appear on stage with Himawari-gumi and Team B.

    HMM akb marketing are geniouses. Its basically a 10000 yen photobook but to not scare ppl of the price they split it to 4. Plus if ppl are so inloved with a certain team there is a possibility of them buying more than the 4 set, although the drawback is some teams may be not sell as much ex. maybe the research students. Either way the 5 photos just sealed the deal and im sure this will sell out fast, like the calendar just because of that (still bitter of my calendarless collection) UHm thinking of getting A,K and maybe B, though i feel bad about leaving the reaserch projects out. Argh time to start saving (again).

    Two questions:

    A) Will these be on YesAsia or CD-Japan? (or a similar English-language site)

    B) How long will they be, approximately? I've never bought a photobook, so I don't know how many pages are usually in them.

    Hmm, these sound promising. Definitely might go for the Team K one, and I might consider the Team A one as well.

    A - HMV Japan, Amazon Japan, YesAsia should carry them as these are regular photobooks, not theater exclusive. Not sure on CD Japan, seems like they don't sales photobooks (I might be wrong)

    B - No detail yet, maybe Amazon JP will have it later.

    I can't help with your second question, since the number and size of pages can vary considerably from PB to PB.

    As for your first question, I'm afraid these won't be on CD Japan; they don't carry photo books at all.
    However, Yesasia may list them on their site at some point. From past experience though, I have found that the only way to be sure that Yesasia list a photobook you really want is to contact their customer service department via their website and ask them to list the item for pre-order.

    If Yesasia don't list them soon, I may contact them myself as I definitely want the Team A, Team K and Team B books. I'll reserve judgement on the Seeds' book until I've seen some more footage of them on stage.
