| Well last Is aw eBay had the unpunched HeroQuest sell for about $80, and a punched Advanced was around $120.
I got a couple spare used ones for under $50 total and both had some parts missing, but they were cannibalized and one even had some pieces from expansions in it.
This game is still hot and very collectible. I think there could be a real market in these times for such games as HeroScape shows some interest, but has the extra costly parts of all plastic contruction.
I understand why the D&D version didn't do so well because it focused too closely on the D&D name, and people more wanted to play the RPG than a board game.
I think a key selling point in a new model of game like this was in the D&D version with modular boards, but they just stopped too short.
I wish I knew enough about IP and copyright to know what parts of the game idea are patented and what aren't so that the D&D version could be made without too much of a nod or affront to GW. |
