Yes, I Aquired Lionheart a few years ago. The Mercenaries have made great, well, mercenaries. I have just painted up some pitchfork wielding peasants for use as cheep henchmen. I texted a picture of them to my brother and he said it looked like a scene out of Shrek!

I picked a nice little bargain the other day all this for £20 including p+p!
£16.87 in total for the men and he was kind enough to do p+p for only £3.13 :)

Nice find. I have a few Dark World figures myself, but really haven't implemented them into HQ as of yet.

I actually much prefer the dark world ogres and orks compared to their heroquest counterparts.

Then comply with the masses! Moohahaha.
Kidding aside: you can't satisfy them all with your taste. I'm called a blasphemer because I proxy HQ minis with modern detailed metal minis from all ranges.

...

...

But seriously, dude... DW ogres over HQ ogres? And the centre parting gentleman orcs over HQ orcs? What's wrong with you?

In terms of costs the Dark World Ogres make great replacement for the Heroquest ones. I bought four Dark World Ogres for .99p, while an Ogre from Heroquest can cost £9.99 for a Warrior, or £15.99 for a Lord, Champion or Chieftain. Basically the Ogres look similar, and have a similar pose but the heroquest ones are very fat.

I have 8 DW Ogres so I think I have enough to play AOH unless the players split up, but having never actually seen a HQ Ogre I have to agree with you on availability and prices.
