From the Amazon description of the book:

"If you've ever picked up a Buckaroo Banzai related item and wondered, "What is this thing anyway?" then this is the book for you!

Providing a comprehensive look at the marketing and promotional materials from the 1984 film, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, this book contains over three hundred full color images highlighting the wide range of materials from both domestic and international releases.

Referred to as the greatest cult film of all time, Buckaroo Banzai was written by Earl Mac Rauch and directed by W. D. Richter. The movie starred Peter Weller, Ellen Barkin, John Lithgow, Christopher Lloyd, Billy Vera, Clancy Brown, Lewis Smith, Pepe Serna, and Laura Harrington. Considered a movie impossible to describe, this book features exclusive interviews with Billy Vera, Laura Harrington, Bruce McBroom, Radford Polinsky, and others.

Unique and one-of-a-kind items are highlighted, making this the ultimate guide for Banzai enthusiasts. Posters, slides, lobby cards, and original artwork from the comic book series are featured with translations for international marketing materials. One international reviewer remarked, 'Does this all seem a little crazy? Then you have everything wrong because this is completely insane!'”
