The prices are in line with previous lego games. In anticipation of these games, I've bought a couple of older games, that I think could be used as diy expansion sets for Heroica. They are: Lava Dragon and Ramses Pyramid, both of which are often available at discounted prices. I suspect the Heroica sets will also be discounted at various outlets, but maybe after they've been released for a few months.
These sets will provide the 'lead in' for a whole new generation of potential 'classic gamers'...
ReplyDeleteOld School publishers would do well to study these and try to get into the toy distribution channels.
Plenty of people bought that D&D Basic box in a toy store back in the day...
I've seen some of the other Lego adventure sets, still watching the shelves for this one to appear.
