I'm So in , I say HQ only though and i think it should be painted too !

Good point mako-heart... good point.

First post has been updated - looks like we're on!

Do they have to be HQ minis? Because I might join this time if I can use some other mini (it will be compatible!)

I think we'll have to stick to just heroquest minis. I have a lot spare ones if needed or you can generally pick up individual minis on eBay fairly cheaply! PM me if you're stuck!

I would love to participate, but I just have unpainted minis of the Game System...

That'll be perfect! I've signed you up Sir!

Could call it Christmas in July Exchange.

Sure - will you be joining in?

I think we should get a person who is unwilling to participate, to make the draw of the names so this time it'll be a surprise to you as well Spiky.

[Big Bene]

I'm definitely in!

It would be awesome if we could also get the competition we've been talking about. A summer and x-mas mini exchange AND a spring and autumn competition. Then we'd have a complete cycle of HQ fun and mayhem!

As for the exchange, I personally would prefer if we could stick to HQ minis. I don't mind if it's just the game system figures. Even a measly goblin could be painted as a champion with glowing sword and tattoos. If the general opinion is "compatible" minis, I won't make (much of) a fuzz though.

Competition? Have I missed something?

[Goblin-King]

not yet - just thinking of this thread:

The thing is, I've already painted all my HQ minis, and I'm not parting with those. If I have to paint a new one for this, then I don't have one. I do have some spare Mantic minis, and those look really cool in HQ.
Trust me on this, I could make a very nice alternative Hero character, even put it on a HQ base.

I think it should be restricted to compatible plastic miniatures only, so it's up to you if you use a stock HQ mini or convert one or use something from Darkworld, the D&D board game or GW or Mantic, as long as it's plastic.
How's that sound?

[tasoe]

As long as conversion are ok, I don't see why a dark world mummy would be out of place. I say we accept even non-HQ minis. We shouldn't have restrictions that prevent a person from participating. Their figure would probably be usable (unlike mine - I'm sending an easter bunny or an elf-jesus on a cross).

[Spiky]

In the interests of getting the most participation , I'm happy to go with the majority view here... So unless anyone has objections to discuss then this should be ok.

I'd really prefer all entries which are not standard HQ minis to be based in a similar way, so we should avoid the circular slotta bases for example. It should be fairly easy to make or buy a base to suit - heck, I'd be even willing to post a broken model to participants if needed to get the bases matching.
