Compilation of the Most Relevant HeroQuest Videos

[HispaZargon]

Hi everybody, here I present you something that is in my mind since time ago since I think this topic has not been treated before in the Inn nor other website either. Anyway, of course if I am wrong, please correct me but, let's go...

Following a similar way to what I did on this other thread about listing all known HeroQuest's documents, I would like to open this new post in order to have one place where we could make a some kind of database of all the known relevant videos about HeroQuest.

Of course the idea is at least having here all the available official ones like TV Commercials, Promos, etc., but also maybe some other non official videos really remarkable for the Community should be also here I think, like relevant interviews or even the very influencing fanmade videos we could really think they should be on this Hall of Fame

Enjoy!

Please, notice that all previous links are external ones, out of our control, so they could not work in the future. Please, report here if you detect any non working link.

The idea I have is using the future messages of this forum to share, describe and discuss about any other videos that were not included in previous list. Maybe new videos will appear if we participate.

Please, if you find any other relevant one, don't hesitate to share it!! Collaboration with new findings is welcome!

About the classic HeroQuest commercial, maybe you already know them but here are some known pics around its production:

Past 15th of December of 2022, professional acclaimed Spanish sculptor Mr. Pepe Mora published on Twitter that he had been in conversations with Mr. Stuart Conran, the person who was commissioned to create the Goblin mask shown in the TV advert. As he mentions, Stuart was going to give him some material about the spot production, but he advanced the following picture:

There he also said the following, that I have translated below to English for you:

PEPE MORA Prosthetic Makeup
@The_Pepe_FX

"Stuart Conran fue el encargado de esculpir y aplicar el maquillaje de “El Goblin” en el anuncio de Heroquest de 1991.
Mandíbula extendida con dentadura y prótesis de espuma de latex.
Esta foto es absoluta primicia y un pequeño teaser de todo lo que me va a pasar Mr Stuart Conran"

"Stuart Conran was commissioned to sculpt and apply makeup to "The Goblin" in the 1991 Heroquest spot
Extended jaw with dentures and latex foam prosthesis.
This photo is absolute scoop and a small teaser of everything that will give to me Mr Stuart Conran"

Many thanks to Pepe for sharing this information!


Then, after this I was investigating a bit more and I also found an English actor called Rusty Goffe who I think could have been the one behind such Goblin mask since this is how he present himself on his Twitter account:

And if you check Mr. Rusty Goffe's Wikipedia entry, there is mentioned that he participated in the HeroQuest Commercial... and also in the Battle Masters one, so... I think it is quite clear that he was the one there!

Here is one picture of him:

Very cool... HeroQuest history!

Good catch on the different voice overs with the US edition too. Never realized there were variants. Maybe the contract the first narrator ended? No idea.

[HispaZargon]

Yeah... another two videos have been added to the list in the first post:

- HeroQuest Toys'R'us Commercial 1991 (USA)
- Battle Masters TV Short Advert (UK)

[Kurgan]

For the first US advert, link 2 and 3 seem to be the same Youtube link...

Great list, though maybe rename the title to something like "HeroQuest Commercial / Ad Spots" or something? That's more specific than the current title which might make people think these are documentaries, interviews or something else. Though I'm sure you may be planning to ad some more these are the tv promos.

Thanks, fixed!

Well, the intention is trying to also include here such kind of material, not only commercials, so I will keep the title as is for the moment. Nevertheless, it could be changed in the future, of course.

Transmit Him has uploaded in YouTube another version of the Advanced Quest commercial from UK.

This one has better audio quality, better image resolution and frame borders less cropped. It overally looks as the same version we already, however there is a little difference. This new video shows the game box price in Pounds.

Thanks a lot to Transmit Him.

I have updated the first post accordingly.

[HispaZargon]

As I advanced in this post, I have found in YouTube a very rare TV advert, just uploaded two weeks ago: The Spanish version of the Advanced Quest TV commercial.

https://youtu.be/Tpenp2x0HKE

Thanks a lot to 'Sin Rebobinar' YouTube channel.

I have updated the first post accordingly.

I hope people are re-downloading these videos and uploading them in an archive spot...

[HispaZargon]

Hopefully, yes...
