Has anyone else heard about this? I haven't seen any news posts made about the collection and I figured I'd make a topic about it.
Here's the Amazon listing for it.

That sounds awesome. But I know I can't get it. I'm saving up for an HD camera. Is there a limit as to how many will be released?

This is the first I've heard of it! That is a pretty impressive set for collectors, especially if you missed out on the previous releases. It seems pricey for what it is, but essentially it's only $25 for each hardcover. (Plus whatever shipping may apply to send something that heavy through the mail...)
I wonder if the Aonuma signature is actually a legitimate "he touched this piece of paper and signed it personally" signature, or just a duplicate of the certificate that he signed for Prima one time only. I've had it go both ways in the past based on descriptions of "signatures", but this seems to imply you are actually getting his autograph. Like the 'gone forever' term, I believe 'signature' is a relative term when it comes to solicitations such as this.
This is very tempting, since I only have the softcover Skyward Sword guide...

Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition Game Guide Set
Sometimes we all need a bit of help with our games. And sometimes we spend a lot of money on a special Collecter's Edition of a game. Sometimes we even send a lot of money on something that doesn't actually have any games, and is instead a collection of very in-depth game guides for a franchise which we enjoy and are always happy to support; if you're the former or the latter, and a Legend of Zelda fan to boot, then Prima has got you covered.
On November the 26th, a large Collecter's Edition of the Prima Official Game Guide's for Legend of Zelda games will be releasing. It features 6 guides, as well as a nifty chest for storing them in and a few extra little treats for those willing to shell out the asked for price tag of $153. There are only a limited number of the copies available, so get them while you can!

So, anyone thinking of picking this up? Think it's a neat idea? Do you need help with your Zelda games? Drop a comment!

There is a downside to the set (besides the price of course).
The four guides that had received stand-alone releases prior to this set had extras included with them. Each had a cloth or parchment map and Phantom Hourglass had a bookmark and a booklet giving Nico's story from the intro.
This box set does NOT include any of the extras.
However, I'm not sure if the stand-alone release of the Wind Waker guide will include anything that won't be in this set.

I seen a guy selling this on Ebay for $500 and i messaged him saying "You know you can still pre order this for like $150 on amazon right...?) and his response was "I know, but some poor soul will be stupid enough to buy it eventually"
Wow is all i could think of.....

Why would I buy physical game guides, however accessorized they are, when I access walkthroughs on Zelda Dungeon for free? I'll pass.

You dont buy them to use them that's why their limited editions i would assume ,they are mostly meant for display and collectors who have alittle extra cash on hand.

Innocent but not fearful.
It would be a cool collector's item to purchase. I hope I can preorder it eventually.
