New Releases!
Finally, some fun new releases!
Rifts®, Heroes Unlimited and Palladium Fantasy logo mugs and T-Shirts are available now!
The 3 coffee mugs are a bit different than those in the past and look great. They have a black satin exterior finish (not glossy) that really makes the images pop. Each of the three mugs has a different interior color, the mug holds 16 ounces, and because so many of you suggested it, we made the logos smaller for a more elegant and classy appearance. Holding the price to $10.99 per mug. See complete details below.
Back due to popular demand! 3 fan favorite T-shirts – the ever popular Rifts® Logo featuring the entire Kevin Long design, the Heroes Unlimited Logo (it’s HU’s 40th Anniversary and the first time a T-shirt features just the logo), and the Palladium Fantasy RPG “Live the Fantasy” T-shirt with art and colors that harkens back to the original red and black RPG cover.
I forgot how powerful and fun these logo T-shirts are. The minute I pulled the Heroes Unlimited and Rifts® logo shirts out of the box, my heart soared and memories of great games filled my heart and mind. It wasn’t just me either, every Palladium staff member ran over to ask if they could have one. Heroes Unlimited and Rifts® T-Shirts are white printed on a black T-shirt; the Palladium Fantasy shirt is my iconic dragon and the slogan “Living the Fantasy” printed red on a black shirt (always one of my personal favorite shirts). Sizes Small to 5XL though the smallest and largest sizes are in limited quantities. Prices start at $19.99 and increases with the larger sizes; Gildan 50/50 cotton blend. See complete details below.
Small-XL $19.99 * 2XL $21.99 * 3XL 23.99 * 4XL $25.99 * 5XL $27.99
Holding down the cost of Palladium products.
As you can see by the prices of our mugs and T-shirts (no price increase!), we are trying hard to hold the line on prices. Likewise, most Palladium book titles are 20-30% less than the majority of our competitors. Not sure how long we can maintain that as the cost of printing, manufacturing, and shipping all continue to rise. Get ‘em while you can. [Kev isn’t kidding, act now! - Sean]
Gen Con Indy – August 1-4 – Palladium Books, Booth 607
We’ll be there with a life-size Ninja Turtle (Leonardo!), and an After the Bomb super sale, lots of RPG books for you to buy, original art, art prints, and more! Come over to say hello and meet the Palladium crew – me (Kevin Siembieda), Sean Owen Roberson, Wayne Smith, Caleb Nelson, authors Mark Oberle, Glen Evans, John Klinkel, and Mike Leonard – all happy to chat a bit and sign your books.
What’s hot at Palladium this week.
Rifts® and Palladium Fantasy titles. Thank you for your support.
