   That would be great!   
      
   As I considered this project, I ran into a similar resource problem as   
   you. I looked into my stash of Sailor Moon stuff to see what I had,   
   expecting to find the Mixxzine trade books. I found that I had NONE   
   and then remembered that I had given all of them away at the last   
   afs-m party at A-Kon years ago as prizes. Fortunately, I have all the   
   original Mixxzine individual issues, so I can work from them. I also   
   have all the original Japanese manga (except for volume #4 for some   
   reason).   
      
   I looked on eBay and so forth to see if I could simply purchase the   
   missing manga and found that the original Mixxzine issues are selling   
   for a fortune. I guess that's what happens when something has been out   
   of print for 10 years.   
      
   I'd like to include the side stories as well, but I don't have access   
   to those at all.
