@Tfmonkey If you've never seen it before, you can't tell how large it all is without something to compare its size to.
@BowsacNoodle The box is about 3 times the depth / thickness of a typical board game box. Definitely fatter than the D&D starter box, and about twice as wide.
@RoninGrey @BowsacNoodle If you plan on collecting the expansions, you can 3D print custom containers to store all the minis, furniture, tokens, etc so you can at least fit the 3 main expanions (Kelors Keeps, Return of the Witch King, and the Frozen Horror) in the main box.
If you plan on owning more expansions than that, you won't be able to fit everything in the main box. I use the main box for minis, another box (Ogre Horde) for furniture, another box (Jungles) for tokens, etc. within a tote
@RoninGrey @BowsacNoodle here is an ad-hoc tier list of HeroQuest expansions (I own them all).
1. Against the Ogre Horde
2. Jungles of Delthrak
3. Mage of the Mirror
4. Frozen Horror
5. Rise of the Dread Moon
6. Return of the Witch Lord
7. Kelors Keep
8. Prophecy of Telor
9. Spirit Queen's Torment

@Tfmonkey @BowsacNoodle Damn! There's a lich in here! And some rats and tiny skulls! (I'm only just now really able to sit down and look at it all carefully.) This is waaaay better bang for your buck than D&D.
@RoninGrey @BowsacNoodle I paint everything but the bosses in generic shades so they can be used to represent more than one character when needed.
The Lich is the "Dread Sorcerer" mini, and you can use him for any NPC spellcaster. There is a female variant in the Spirit Queen's Torment expansion.
The Sorcerer could be a lich, or simply a Cultist wearing a skull mask. That's why it's best to paint them generically.
Here is the Dread Cultist from the Rise of the Dread Moon expansion w/ masks
@BowsacNoodle @RoninGrey here are some of my oversized (couldn't fit in the normal 25mm mini holders I made which fit most of the minis.
I also give the "bosses" a little extra color but not too much as I want them to be generic too.
Some of these are 3D printed
@Tfmonkey This fellow right here. I like him and the snake.
@RoninGrey here is where you can download the STL file to 3D print: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/iron-golem-2-forg3dx
@Tfmonkey Thank you, sir.
