Yes, I saw those and did a deep search on the Facebook hero quest page and found the others not posted here.

Chaosium (moon Design) Transferred the Trademark for Heroquest to Hasbro.

Looks like it was timed to go out with the Heroquest haslab crowdfunding.

Yes, and Hasbro is republishing it, but only time will tell if the Wizard and Dwarf quest packs will ever be released.

Apparently Stephen Baker was brought back to make a new Quest pack, Prophecies of Telor.

And it is a good job too!
I've seen at least three of them during the last month.
I was offered a copy but at first I refused it cos not really interested. But seeing it panted is making me think again about it. Can anyone else be interested to have one?


I would be very interested in getting one of those! I've got a few of the WHQ minotaurs, but this guy looks pretty cool.

Do you know where I might get one?

Link here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/officialheroquest
So they really seems to be some kind of demo stuff, in my opinion the qualtiy of the sculpts is not so good, they look more like children toys than miniatures.
There are a male and female dwarf (with hammer and with club) a skaven, a minotaur, a chinese dragon, a golem, a sabretooth, a giant spider and one strange figure looking like a small rhino-dragon.
The sabretooth is the only good figure for my tastes while all the others look a bit weird. But ayway they are unreleased official stuff so is a good thing they have been finally shown to the community.
I guess the sculptor stle in the 2 dwarfs is recognizable, he should be the same guy who sculpted the Frozen Horror figure. Just wondering if a female wizard also exists.
I'll ask if I can share all the images here too, but can't resist to post a few here right now...


When I read that I got exited thinking it was a legendary Zoat, a Rhino-Centaur type monster that was the second of Games Workshop's attempts at a unique trademark fantasy/sci-fi race not directly tied to Tolkien or D&D, the first being the Fimir. They were in early 40K and 3rd edition Warhammer Fantasy, but were eliminated as Warhammer races with almost no mention in later editions, just a few metal figures and the inexplicable inclusion of the plastic Fimir in the original HeroQuest. There was long speculation that Zoats would have appeared in HeroQuest because early color illustrations in 3rd edition Warhammer books showed all the good races and all the bad races which HeroQuest and Advanced HeroQuest eventually made all of except the Zoat.
After having seen the actual sculpt photos it looks more like a cartoon dragon monster with a rhino horn configuration similar in style to Bakshi's Wizards cartoon style than a Zoat. The poster called it a "rhinodog." Seems all of the sculpts of unseen unproduced HQ figures were pretty weak with the exceptions of the awesome Sabertooth (reminiscent of the Marx prehistoric toy) and the Female dwarf. The spider is so-so and the rest don't seem to match the aesthetic of HeroQuest, probably a major factor in their cancellation.

I am very curious regarding this wizard quest pack you speak of. I feel the Wizard was never given an adequate roll. He was always there to suppor the other heroes but never got to play a detrimental part of the quests.

The Wizard and Dwarf Quest Packs exist in the possession of Micheal Gray, a former Milton Bradley/Hasbro employee who now works for Restoration Games. This blog article talks about it.

Ive seen some of the trial run info for both the Dwarf and Wizard pack, to include prototype cards and other cardstock.
I dont remember who it was that worked on these, but it would be cool if someone does remember and could reach out to him.
Maybe , they would even be willing to finish them for the fans here.
