Its a bit pricey with shipping, but, if you like art books, and you like FFXI, you'll like this book (it helps if you can read JP too obviously, but yeah)
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=NEOBK-1246153does the JP item code work with NA accounts? There is absolutely no restriction for any of the promotional codes ever released for FFXI. Any code will work on any account, period, so you can buy this book without any fear.
Thank you for this link by the way, I am now 72£ lighter.

idk about that, my jp friend who lives in tokyo, went to this years vanafest and got a code for a free in game item (think it was for their anni event) it's basically a free VW item. the guy who handed out the codes thought he was american and told him that the codes are for jp only accounts. so D:

That's a lie, people either have no idea, or simply try to keep it for their JP comrades. I used so many Japanese codes on my EU account, including the latest Vanafest in Japan (Athena's orb, Moogle cap), that it can only be false. I could even get a Maestro's baton, when it's probably one of the most JP onry thing.
The only existing restriction is time. It varies depending on the items/years, but most of the items have one. Main reason why I couldn't get a Moogle suit in time, the codes were invalid as of June 30th, midnight, among a few other things.
I tried to purchase a Nomad cap code at some point, only to find out it was out of date :(

Thanks for this! oddly enough the 1-3 day shipping is significantly cheaper then the 1-3 weeks ground method. what is this i don't even.
Do you know how HARD it is to drive across the pacific? I mean hell, no wonder air-mail is cheaper.

Just rechecked the thread, for all those wondering and want complete conformation, yes, the Mandraguard code will work with your account, I have an EU account, and it worked fine, just enter it the normal way you would.
The code is in the back of the book, in a little paper cut-out thing.
Hope you all enjoy the book :D
Oh, and also, I dont know if its been said, but Ill say it here; The Mandragora's Grace effect on the Mandraguard is +1 Regen in Daylight hours

The real question is why do they need the steps from 30-44.

The book is completely in Japanese, a lot of it is artwork and concept art however, so it's still enjoyable. However, further later in the book, they have all the news/events for FFXI since 2002 listed, which is all in Japanese, and then Census data since 2002, also in Japanese. So, it's not all artwork, but yeah.

| | Hey gang!
Just got confirmation that things are still moving according to schedule (our "in July" time frame) and that prizes should hopefully start appearing in lucky adventurer's delivery boxes soon! I don't have an exact time for you for when it begins, but one thing to keep in mind is that prizes will be delivered in order, so it may take some time before all of the prizes are completely distributed.
We'll make sure to post once we have confirmed that all prizes are sent out!  | |
The sneaky and stealthy goblins were able to infiltrate the FINAL FANTASY XI in-game item vaults and pilfer a ton of items right from under our noses... It turns out that it was all for a good cause because they are creating a variety of Golden Gobbiebags packed to the brim with goodies for some lucky adventurers to take home.
We have prepared a special survey based on the events and announcements of VanaFest 2012 to be posted after the event. By filling it out and answering the “Gobbie” question correctly you will be entered into a competition where you could win one of many Golden Gobbiebags, each exploding with a variety of rare in-game items!
