toddbanister Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 I am finally returning to Hero System after several years of being away. With approximately 75% of all of the 5th edition books already in my collection already and seeing the crazy prices for 6th edition, I think I am just going to stick with 5th and try and complete the run (especially with the reduced costs for 5th in the Hero store). I know there were some 5th edition hardcovers printed over the run (along with their softcover counterparts) - but does anyone know which books they were? The ones I know of are: Fifth Edition Rules (have it) Fifth Edition Revised Rules (have it) Pulp Hero (have it) Fantasy Hero (don't currently have it) Are there any other 5th edition hardcovers that I have missed? Thanks for all of the help, Todd B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zslane Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Interesting. I didn't realize there were any 5e hardcovers other than the core rulebook. Does anyone have photos of any of the others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddbanister Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I will post a picture of my Pulp Hero hardcover when I get back home in about a week. I have only seen a picture of the Fantasy Hero hardcover - I will try and find it again. Anyone else know of 5th edition hardcovers that I missed?

Spence Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I have the Fantasy Hero 5th, Pulp Hero 5th and the Champions 25th Anniversary Edition Hardback. I believe they were all limited edition pre-purchase. Not Kickstarter though. I can't remember exactly how it was done. I am sure Pulp Hero 5th and the Champions 25th Anniversary Edition were limited only available for those that took part. Can’t remember for sure about Fantasy Hero.

Lord Liaden Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 Book Of The Machine, the 5E Champions source book for Mechanon, is hardcover. With full-color artwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddbanister Posted June 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Here's Book of the Machine. I noticed that the Book of the Machine is for sale in the Hero Store. Do you know if all of the Book of the Machines are hardcovers or is the one for sale in the Hero Store a softcover? Thanks, TB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Baker Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 As far as I know, it was only printed in hardcover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddbanister Posted June 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 As far as I know, it was only printed in hardcover. Well, I will know here soon as I just bought one from the Hero Store. Thanks guys, TB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zslane Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Here you go... 5th Ed Hardcovers.jpg Those are really cool, Spence. I'd probably be jonesing for the Pulp Hero HC if I didn't already have my PH Omnibus Hardcover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravellingScholar Posted November 22, 2016 Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 Honestly, if I can, I want to find 5th edition prints whether hard or soft cover... Particularly for the Fantasy HERO line of products which I can't find anywhere. The books Fantasy Hero, Fantasy Hero Grimoire Vols I-II, Tuala Morn, and Enchanted Items in particular.

Some of those are available right now from the Hero Games online store on this website, at very good prices: Enchanted Items Fantasy Hero Grimoire II Tuala Morn I have some ideas about where to look for the others on your list. I'll poke around when I have more time and get back to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper-Man Posted November 24, 2016 Report Share Posted November 24, 2016 Here you go... 5th Ed Hardcovers.jpg Those are really cool, Spence. I'd probably be jonesing for the Pulp Hero HC if I didn't already have my PH Omnibus Hardcover. I have the Pulp Hero softcover and regret not getting the HC when it was available. I just didn't have the funds at the time. I do have the other 2 pictured. HM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
