Ye Olde Inn

Anyone have an Against the Ogre Horde and Wizards of Zargon box in English they’d be willing to part with? Just the boxes. Can’t find them anywhere online without paying way too much for the full set.

One thing we have begun doing in the retrocomputing and retrogaming hobbies is reprinting game boxes. Often the media is fine, but the box is long gone. We've taken to reprinting these—though a game box is typically a different kind of card stock (and larger), it might be an option?

I have original boxes for the rest of my HQ set, just looking to complete it.

yeah that's the one thing I am missing now, are replicas of the boxes. I need boxes for four expansion packs. I was going to just try to recreate them as well in my own spare time.

jdean, I don't know if you joined the Inn's Facebook group? But a member has created replica boxes of what you are looking for, unfortunately, they are not original boxes like you want.

I'm in the same boat as you, wanting the original but not willing to pay an arm and a leg for it. I have a contact that makes excellent replica minis that I have been buying from. People on eBay wanted the Wizards for like $100 per mini, I got them from him for like $5 a mini.

If you want the information just let me know.

I have the full expansions, all original parts. Just missing the boxes.

The cheapest way I found was to piece together incomplete sets. Then the scalpers don’t get you.

Would be interested if someone made a box for Summons of the Wizards’ Council.

Well I made some replica boxes for all the HeroQuest content! It's not what you look for, but if you need anything just let me know!

J_dean80 I would suggest to specify in the title of the topic the matter of your search too.
It is actually too much generic.

Well the original reason for being so vague was so others could post what they are searching for too.
