Contents (from “BOOK” database) ``Maschinenkrieger'' is an original science fiction work by Hiroshi Yokoyama, who has won fans all over the world with his unique modeling ability and military-style worldview. In 1982, the project was launched as ``SF3D Original'' in ``Monthly Hobby Japan'' and was well received by many readers, but the serialization ended in 1985, with much regret. After that, it took a long hiatus, but in February 1999, it was revived in the special feature at the beginning of the model magazine Model Graphics . The title was renamed ``Ma.K. (Maschinenkrieger)'' and it was restarted, marking the beginning of the major content that continues to this day. This time, this magazine has compiled this series into one volume, exactly as it appeared in the magazine at the time. The first edition includes the series from ``The Story of Hiroshi Yokoyama and Maschinen Krieger'', which was the kick-off project for Ma.K.'s revival in February 1999, to the December 2001 issue.
