MM/FH miniature manufacturer

Postby Elf Blade » March 20th, 2014, 9:44 pm

Hello, I am a HeroQuest enthusiast in need of some information. I have not been able to find it elsewhere so I thought I would drop by the inn to ask the experts. My question is about the miniatures that come with the Mage in the Mirror and Frozen Horror expansion packs. Are these miniatures Citadel miniatures or are they made by a different company? They seem to be of a very different style to the miniatures that came with HQ/KK/RWL/AOH.

Thanks!
Elf Blade

Yeah, they were devised by Milton Bradley. The artist clearly struggled adapting the style, so he did the American thing and just didn't.

Americans are not lazy, we're arrogant and entitled and only believe in doing the bare minimum amount of effort to produce a technically satisfactory result.

No, it's pragmatic. Nothing wrong with pragmatic :)
