BQP: The Frozen Horror Remake Main Thread!

[Kurgan]

But you just know it's going to motivate somebody to try to create a board with 50x50 mm squares... (not me)

[Kurgan]

So another hint that Frozen Horror will be announced/shown at Gen Con in two months... somebody want to share the FH errata with "Zargon" and Avalon Hill on Twitter please? I don't have an account there or else I would...

$44.99? An order went through then it disappeared. Maybe Santa's brother got a copy? Probably somebody goofed up again. For something that shouldn't be available for several more months...

No pre-orders for me. Interesting, price in USD would be $41.81 (shipping not included?). Looks like another placeholder.

I don't recommend it of course, but I bet if you do place such an order, the listing will go down shortly thereafter, that seems to be the pattern with such sights thus far.

If you're hoping to get the Frozen Horror remake before it is released, think again...

I'm remembering back when the pledge drive was going on, people were telling me that HeroQuest remake would "never" be a retail release. Supposedly that was a bonus decision (that the remake came to retail in the form of the Game System, Kellar's Keep & Return of the WitchLord a month after the pledges were shipped... which if people recall, we had to wait about a year for after pledges ended). Now people are telling me that this will be a retail release, not to worry, it won't be a limited edition or exclusive. So why bother pre-ordering? I certainly wouldn't risk it before the game is officially announced.

When these "pre-order" things appear on Hasbro's own US page, only then would it be safe... but as for me I'll wait until the retail release, so only "Order" not "Pre-order" for me.

So nothing against people posting these, but let the buyer beware until we know for sure...

Shipping is €39.95 to U.S.

I placed a preorder hoping to be early in the fulfillment queue, not to hope to get it early.

$82.20? Seems a little steep for an expansion like this. I'd rather pay MSRP when it comes to retail, personally.

I have yet to see any on store shelves.

Does anybody on here have the HeroQuest Companion App? If you guys could check it out and let me know what you see...
