New heroes coming?

By tomkat364, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Just saw that Runebound is now adding Red Scorpion and Jonas the Kind. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Runebound used previously released Descent minis for the core heroes, and both of these are Descent 1.0 heroes who have yet to be seen in Descent 2.0, right? Does this suggest that these two will be in an expansion or H&M pack soon?

Maybe they'll package the descent hero card in the runebound expansion.

But it looks like Red Scorpion is on the way, and since she is in none of the two next H&M boxes, that means thoses boxes are comming after.

with new monsters or new things? we will see !

Need that Red Scorpion !!!!

Jonas has already been re-released: https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2016/1/28/hit-em-hard/

Don't remember right now about Red Scorpion, but I love that new design.

Shows what I know! That looks like a fun group of heroes, have to add it to my wishlist.

Wait, has Red Scorpion been announced for Descent? Coming to Runebound doesn't mean Descent otherwise.

no, she has not already

but I wouldn't be surprised if it's gonna be really soon !

Minis are different sizes so I doubt this. The Runebound ones are significantly smaller than the Descent ones.

The mini would be dwarfed by the standard Descent ones.

Love the idea though, kinda wish they incorporated it that way.

Really? I didn't realize there was a size difference (only own Descent). The pictures I have seen all looked identical. Can you give an estimate of the overall height of the Runebound mini?

On another thread mitchjmiller was nice enough to post this picture for me. http://i.imgur.com/si9CzHt.jpg

Sad that FFG elected to make them different scales, it seems counter intuitive to me. But it is what it is. :D

that's surprising and really weird !

It's even more surprising that they're not just smaller, but that they're even different sculpts!

That does seem really odd. From what I understand about the industry, its rather costly to make new sculptures. To make new ones that are only slightly different seems very peculiar to me. I am sure they had some good reason but its lost on me.

In fact this seems like a lost business opportunity. If they had just made totally new heroes and put in descent hero cards they likely would have gotten some descent players to buy runebound and some runeboune players to buy descent.

I wouldn't mind smaller sculpts, if they were battlelore sized.
