CAGiversary!
New Slipcase Version (thanks for the heads up themaster20000, and suko_32 for the link!)

Previously available only as a part of the now sold-out The Sky: The Art of Final Fantasy Boxed Set, Dark Horse is pleased to offer fans another chance to own the three-book hardcover set The Sky I, II, and III, included in the new The Sky: The Art of Final Fantasy Slipcased Edition! Yoshitaka Amano is one of the world's foremost fantasy artists, and The Sky I, II, and III showcase Amano's ethereal illustrations for the first ten Final Fantasy games! Each hardcover book in The Sky Slipcased Edition is 11 5/8" high by 10 5/8" wide, and printed on glossy stock. Volume 1 (144 pages) contains Amano's work for Final Fantasy I-III. Volume 2 (276 pages) contains his contributions for Final Fantasy IV-VI, and volume 3 (156 pages) features his art for Final Fantasy VII-X. The elegant slipcase containing The Sky I, II, and III features the same wraparound exterior artwork as The Sky Boxed Set, with a double-hinged flap that folds around the open edge and is held flat to the back side with a hidden magnetic closure, making it easy both to remove the books and to display the set closed. Don't miss your chance to return to the strange and beautiful realms of Yoshitaka Amano with The Sky: The Art of Final Fantasy Slipcased Edition!

What's this about having to pay shipping even with prime?  I got both of my copies in yesterday in one big box, excellent shape on both, and free shipping.

 
Got mine the other day and now I want some prints to frame.  It's amazing how you can look at the character art and instantly know who it is from the games, without seeing the name on the page.  Love this thing.

 
Mine arrived today, my first initial thoughts were "HOLY CRAP!! THIS IS EFFING HEAVY!!" then followed by glee and joy that it finally came. It's pretty cool and totally worth the $5x.xx.

 
I accidentally ordered 2 from Amazon. If anyone local to Seattle/Tacoma/Puyallup area wants to meet up I'll sell my extra copy for $55.
