They are on sale at my Wal-Mart too. If I wanted/needed more I would probably get them, but I bougt 5 at my Meijer a couple months ago for $10 each.

yeah, I got a buch on the clearance recently, some for 15 and some for 7. But I figured someone might be interested.
Man, we really need a new MS so I can buy more.

They must need to get rid of all those extras that were returned to them by "mistake" after the TRU FB debacle. :whistle:

Wish we had a Meijers here. Walmart, TRU, Target and KMart are the only places I can find it. We have a Big Lots, which I scoured today, but no Heroscape anything there.

I'm not sure if this is just a local thing, but I saw MS's the day before yesterday at Kmart - buy one get one 50% off ($30 each basically).

My local Wally restocked with a ton of EOV MS.

Could WM be sending out a new round of EOV's? Or did someone just find them in a corner of the wherehouse somewhere? What were the prices on them?

DANG! I'd still like to eventually add at least one squad of EOV for a viper based army. Will have to keep my eyes peeled....

Local Walmart had the $33 price last time I was in there.
Also, lots of wave 5 and Orms Return and a few RttFF - but no sales price on these.

I've never seen a MS discounted lower than the normal $39 at any of Wal-Marts I've been in. I keep reading about these deals I wish I would run into one sometime.
The best deal I've seen which I think is accross the entire" Shopko " network of stores is the buy one toy or game and get 1/2 off on the second one.

Hey, how does the EOV MS look like. I want to check out my walmarts to see if any but i don't know if there is anything special to loook for when compared to regular MSets
Also what if any are the differences between 1st and second edition of the MS

Search for Heroscape on eBay. You'll see a few EOV Walmart sets pictured.

That's like 16 of your American cents.
What a deal!

The WM exclusive EOV MS has a box that is a little larger than the normal MS. The additional 3 figures are tacked on to the end of the box and this extra part is yellow. Do a search on ebay and you'll see a pic. The difference between the 1st and 2nd ed. are the dice. The 1st ed has the red/blue dice. The 2nd ed has the white dice. There are two versions of the 1st ed. MS's. The early ones have sparkly water the later ones have the plain blue water. By the way...the EOV's are 2nd edition.

Fortunately that joke doesn't work anymore.
We're close to 1:1... although CAD dropped a bit lately.
I guess I have to tell my story of the missed Master Set opportunity, but at least I got the game!
Fall 2004, 2 years ago...
One of the lesser local gaming stores had this box, called Heroscape. My they had a lot of these... "pretty big, and cool figures!" I said....
"95 DOLLARS!!!! Hah.. right..."
A month later...
I just gave the game a glance next time I was there and thought...
"Wow.. still a lot of these boxes, and they are 45$ now.. I can't afford that still, and the game must suck"
Boxing day 2004
I always go to all the game stores and malls boxing day looking for good gaming deals, and at that same store.. like zero boxes sold still, Heroscape.. it's price was slashed to $20 CAD, and it was also sitting on the half off table... I asked about it "Is this $20 the half off price, or do I get half off $20?"
They tell me that its $10... well at this point, I look at the OVER 30 BOXES OF MASTER SETS.. and I say... heck, I can buy one for $10.. I like that Dragon figure, it looks cool.. and I can make my own game up if it sucks.
A month later, after all my friends were hooked and I was craving more sets... I RUE that day!! Man... I could have bought 30 Master sets for $300.
I would have sold most of them, but $10 a master set... I still almost cry thinking about it.
I ended up paying full price for 4 more sets later on.
