Heroquest remake by Hasbro - The BIG discussion thread

[Kurgan]

Somebody knock on his door and ask if he'll do an unboxing (j/k).

I don't really use reddit, but I see somebody further down the page posted pics of their streaming heroquest games with a webcam. Great minds think alike.

someone already got it, front of the Joe box included...

Thanks for sharing. That's the "Joe box"? Darn, I was hoping that was a vinyl "Hero Quest: the Record Album"

Still, nice scoop, Shadzar! (from "King of Butts" on twitter)

If this were a video game, that person would have already beaten it.

Doesn't tell us jack about the contents though...

There are a few people on BGG who have received theirs today. Looks like a signature is required to receive it.

Great. If anybody sees any unboxings, please link them here!

So sounds like some people really did get it yesterday and today, after all those worries about delays. And that picture shows the Mythic tier. Wonder if anyone with Heroic got it yet?

No change in status or email for me yet. Figure If I don’t see anything in 2hrs, then it will probably be tomorrow with a Tuesday delivery. Either way I’ll be out of town Sunday - Wednesday evening so the delay won’t really effect me.

Wonder if anyone with Heroic got it yet?

Not possible. Hasbro stated Heroic hasn't arrived yet, they only have Mythic in US, UK (Zavvi), and Australia (Mighty Ape) warehouses

Ok. I was so confused for a second there I was thinking that Mythic was going to take longer to ship because of the bigger box. Not that there should be any reason for preference, but there you go. Mine was mythic. Keep posting your delivery dates and sooner or later we'll have an unboxing video to link! On Tuesday I'll do my best to contact everyone on the list and if we haven't already had a video we can decide who wants to do it.

Once we've gotten all the questions answered we'll probably just do straight up reviews of the contents for those who wish to own the product and not return it. But there could also be other videos from people as to why they're returning their's. See how diplomatic I'm being? Because we still don't know what changes have been made (other than the obvious aesthetics) and we don't have any spoilers for the new quests other than what Stephen Baker revealed during the fundraiser and Joe's brief little video.

No email today, I was a first min purchaser as well. FedEx still says it’s arriving Saturday but was supposed to be picked up yesterday. Hopefully I’ll get an email tomorrow that it’s on the way.

Be sure you search for traps before opening the box.


Edit: False alarm, this video is just that old preview of the pre-release stuff. Too bad, it still features the rounded corner dice that we apparently aren't getting. Not an unboxing of the finished product, similar to this video. Old stuff, and out of date, like the unboxing of the card game.
