View Full Version : Any new figures coming out?

Is there any information out there about any figures coming with the new castle expansions, or new sets being released at the same time? I've played Heroscape for a while, but never really searched online too much for info about it, so even though I looked, I have no idea where to start looking for stuff like that.
Thanks in advance.
This is also my first time on these forums. I might try to become a regular though.

Tell me what you have, and I'll tell you what you're missing! :-P
The best place to find info on what has already been released is the official site.....just scroll through the menus. They have everything listed there except the two exclusive repaints.
As for upcoming items, we're supposed to see castles and another wave of four small packs sometime late this summer or (more likely) early in the fall. So we're in a bit of a dry spell.

Ah, okay thanks. I am missing quite a few of the sets that are already released, but I'm working on getting everything. I was just wondering if there were new things coming out in the line of figures, because my friend has them all so I've already used everything, and thought it would be cool if there was new stuff coming out.
The next set I'm going to get is the lawmen and the samurai.

There are a few threads about upcoming figures (sorry, I didn't take the time to look 'em up) - the ones just released, Raknar's Vision (5 large figures) and the tundra (a squad of yeti-like figures) are on the official site, and the next wave to be available (I can't remember the name) has some pictures out (figures on a shelf) but names, stats, etc. haven't been released yet. The castle won't have any figures with it, is what all the discussion I've read has said.
EDIT: Thora's Vengeance is the wave 5 name I couldn't recall :)

Cool, I'll look for these pictures. I already bought Raknar's vision, because I had been waiting for Jotun for a while.

Yes Wave 5! what the hell is up with this? Usually we have stats and better pics up to 2 months before they are available for purchase.
Considering we have none of that yet for Wave 5, it is starting to look like late summer :-(

Sweet pics UD.
My personal opinion is that Hasbro is cooling on HS and moving on to other projects.... :(

You're kidding, right?
HS is still abig thing for Hasbro. Just look at the size of that booth display. Not to mention the fact that the bigwigs of Hasbro mention HS by name when talking about hot products.

Thanx for the pix...they are better quality than the ones ive seen!
So is the 5th pic down, the one of the castle, the whole of one set or just part of a set? i cant seem to tell how much one castle set will be?!

That is what the entire set looks like when putting together an enclosed caste. Notice the other castles are only fronts and one uses a lot of land pieces. The castle set only has a 100 pieces including door and ladders. The smaller one fits nicely on a single master set battlefield. I figure they would like you to buy one castle set for every master set you have.

One word for that post, UD, epic.
Wasn't there a thread on HQ that had pics and talk about how the castle pieces went together?
