Postby link_triforce21 » Thursday July 1st, 2010 12:22am

I got mine for $80 on amazon. It was complete, and had unpainted figures, so I was satisfied.

I got one set that was painted and they where done relatively nice. and also in the back of the quest book someone made a quest and it was done by child cause there was a lot of scribbles.

Originally Heroquest cost £19.99 I think when I got it for Christmas in about 1989. I sold it at a car boot sale and bought it again when in was 1993 for £10 (this was before it's revival). Recently I got 2 incomplete sets giving me more than 1 complete set for a total of about £18.

Wow. I feel kinda jacked up right now.

I found out about HQ through a review on the old board game DragonStrike, so I was bound to pay alot.

My brother got HQ as xmass gift from his godfather back in 1990. It cost about 7000 drachmas= 20 euro. Last year i got an unpainted english set in great condition for 10 euros and after that another an advanced adventure one, in perfect condition-unpainted minis, for 10 euros again. It costed more to ship them.

And for the retrofans... the greek version of the HQ ad

I didn't realize HQ had so many versions! They REALLY need to remake this flipping game!
