VIPER Collection Photos

[黒い灯影]

So the first batch of books came in,
Books on the left, didn't see any Viper content
Books on the right, at least some Viper content in it.

I'll try to scan the pages soon.

How much RSR preview content is in that? I've never seen that particular edition listed in any of my magazine searches for VIPER material (probably due to the misspelling)

there's 3 pages, 4 if you include the ad.
Also has a double sided folded poster of Cala and Iota,
with the other side being the Viper RSR's game cover

My magazine collection is growing, i still have to catalog and check a lot of them for Viper content..
But the Tech Gian magazines were awesome for Viper Content, as it had a lot of interviews or promo content from Sogna

Trying to find when the Maker: The Gathering section stopped including Sogna, but they had it in a lot of issues.

I thought they dumped the Maker: The Gathering section early to mid-2000s. I don't think the 2012 or 2017 mags I have include this section, in favor of more full or double page previews. I think Maker: The Gathering was great for pre- and early-internet, but once all these companies got webpages the magazines couldn't cover any newsworthy items except the previews/reviews.

Still, I appreciate the list and, perhaps someday, can hunt for the same ones.

yeah, the early issues are hard to find pre-2000, i got lucky and found a bulk of them being sold

Okay, I found the range of when they included Sogna in their Maker The Gathering section.
1998 July through to 2001 October.
