Hasbro 2021 Remake: Public Unboxings ARE HERE!

[Kurgan]

If the person presenting is open to questions, they can be as long or short as they want. Long winded me, I'm open to suggestions.

I think the later part of the box opening should be a comparison in regards to the original. Not that the unboxer should read the rule book, but pause the camera in between reads, and give a brief explanation on some of the changes.

Wow. I contact my nearest boardgames shop and asked if it's possible to get that game. They told that they're going to sell it in their shops. I'm getting so excited now. I realy hope that they're not going scalp the price ridiculously like everyone nowdays in my country :/

[Kurgan]

Are you in the UK, Smrize? I figured specialty game shops would get the new HQ, I just hope they won't be the only ones selling it offline.

Kurgan, I am open to taking any questions/requests when I unbox, and I will print them all out and make sure I answer them. Also, I can try to do it in any format you wish. I'm open to be as helpful as possible.

Very cool thanks!

Here are the questions I have right off the bat:

What is the plastic on the miniatures like... is it like the Reaper Bones hard rubber (polymer)? I assume so, but people still ask.
How easy do you think it would be to mod these? The bases are round, how easy to re-base them?

Is all of the furniture brown or is some of it gray or other colors?

Do the skulls and rats actually pin to the furniture or would you need to glue them on?

Scale of furniture compared to the originals?

What color are the "bonus" figures (female Heroes, male Elf, "Mentor," Witch Lord, Sir Ragnar). Are the new heroes all red too?

Size of cards (measurements and compared to originals).
Size of minis (compared to originals).
Exact board dimensions.
Any changes in instruction book. New Rules or Rule Clarifications?
Any changes in text on spells or equipment (Especially Borin's Armor, Courage, Rock Skin, Orc's bane).

Are all the NA artifacts included... is there Elixir of Life, Wand of Magic as opposed to Wand of Recall, Wizard's Staff, Wizard's Cloak and Ring of Return?... are all of the NA exclusive KK/ROTWL artifacts included? (Spell Scrolls, Armband of healing, Anti-poison quill, etc).

What are the dice made of (plastic?) and what size are they compared to the originals? Glossy or matte? Painted inscribed details?

What do the character sheets look like compared to the originals. How many roughly are in the pad, and what size are they compared to the originals?

New Quests:

What new Artifacts are there?

How many are there?
Was "Rogar's Hall" included or is it truly a free bonus quest?
Where do these quest packs take place in the Hero Quest chronology?
Do they incorporate the "New Heroes" or not?
Are the new Heroes inserted in the "original" 14 quests or the KK, ROTWL remakes?

How are the tiles compared to the old set? Double sided? Thick like the Game System or thinner like the KK/ROTWL ?

Are there any "maps" of the Hero Quest World or new backstory text we didn't get before?

What all are included in the Equipment cards? Is there a Spear? Cloak? Any other additions from the EU versions that was ported over?

Are there any new Treasure cards, or are Holy Water and Potion of speed considered "equipment" now?

Are the "Alchemist Shop" Potions equipment cards or what?

Is the Potion of Healing in the Treasure deck still "1 red die" or is it "4 body points" automatically? Compare the distributions to the Inn. Is it the same exact deck from the NA version or are there changes? (besides artwork)

Any other included supplements in the box (fliers, trays, etc) other than what we originally got?

[Kurgan]

mint in shrink unboxing. Jealous.

This is the sort of thing I'd love to see done for the new HeroQuest remake with questions answered. But I would want a step more... screencaps or comparison of text on the cards/manual, size comparisons, etc. Warhammer Quest is its own thing, the remake we have something to compare to, classic HQ. Close ups to show relative sizes or posted measurements, typed out text or screenshots showing any gameplay mechanic changes.

Now that video showed everything, but the resolution was too low to be able to really read anything clearly. No comparisons, that's what we'll need in the new one, and confirmation of questions asked.

Maybe such questions should be gathered and held until product begins to ship, and a new thread made with the questions in its opening post, for people to be able to post answers to?

[Kurgan]

Good idea.
