Default Re: The Legend of Zelda Box Set: Prima Official Game Guide [Hardcover]

Spoke to prima at sdcc today

- all books will be unsealed
- all of them will be using high gloss paper like there new guides - so twilight princess for example will be much thicker
- book is considered 'limited' told me they will be making as many as they foresee being pre ordered, got told they reckon less then 100,000
- all certificates will be numbered
- the chest will be of a high quality, chest is being approved of the developer of zelda series (can't think of name) chest will come with a magnetic strip for a locking mechanism
- they scrapped the idea of having zelda chest theme tune due to annoyance of having to have batteries
- ocarina of time guide has extra features compared to the original std guide

Hope this helps anyone

That's cool to know! ^^ Thanks for the info.

One more thing though, do the guides come with any of the original items that were in the books with the first prints, Suchas the cloth maps and book mark with PH?

amazon.com price is increased again to 161.99, which makes canadian price even more appealing. lol

Basically, at this point, there is no point in Amazon.com
It'll probably ship the fastest to me & you, but to me it won't justify the huge price gaps.

I hope you managed to pre-order from Amazon.co.uk Swifty, before they raised their prices that is

I have standing orders with Amazon.ca and Amazon.co.uk from their original prices

Just in case Amazon UK decides to cancel orders like the Zelda Historia CE
