HeroQuest Compatible Miniatures

I wish I had some of those. Would make great statues for a dungeon where cthulhu is the endboss. Reaper Bones mega Cthulhu that is hehehe!

I saw this kickstarter and immediately thought of HeroQuest.

I am in no way affiliated with the people behind this shady looking campaign, the kickstarter page is barren besides that one (rather nice looking) photo of an orc.

It has that classic GW look and feel without the bow-legged shaved ape we see these days.

Don't blame me if this person steals your money...

there are 4 more pics in the latest update I like the look of these also but probably wont back

[Sjeng]

Yeah, though these look pretty good, they will be metal, and I prefer plastic.
They do look like they'd fit in very well. I like them.

I have been looking at the Reaper website and the prices for the Bone miniatures are pretty affordable.

Has anybody here used them and how do they scale up with the Heroquest miniatures ?

I had a game called Mordheim made by GW around 15 years ago that game with a bunch of rats and skaven. I would guess it is impossible to find today.

So I do not have all of the games but I am trying to get all of the figures, at least in proxy, and was wondering how many people just rely on GW minis.

I am trying to match the style of GW minies to the base game and trying to find a list of the older figures available s hard. But I am haveing fun. Where do you guys look to mainly find proxies or are you all just purists and only track down HQ Figures?

[knightkrawler]

My current set is an ever-changing setup of modern figures from all kinds of manufacturers, from Darksword to Reaper to Rackham and many others, including GW. I try to keep an overall style to figures within a quest pack.
Then, when I've painted up these, I plan on going about what you're doing: finding old Citadel minis to proxy the plastics and paint them in a very traditional comic style. Or a style I've developed until then, I don't know,

GW is obvioulsy easy, you can get something taht approximate sthe right style for most things with little effort.

The next best port of call is minis companies run by people who where associated with GW in some way. Heresy, Avatars of War, Warlord, etc.

Then I move on to other fantasy producers working in simialr scales such as Reaper.
