Unboxing: Warlord Games Standard and Mega Mystery Box

Earlier this year, Warlord Games‘ mystery boxes were back and better than ever. Boxes include a selection of miniatures, books, sprues, and accessories from the publisher’s various games. Each box brings a solid amount of savings, well worth the price of purchase if you like being surprised and/or are good with random items.
The Standard Mystery Box retailed for $64 and promised a retail value of at least $136 and contains one pre-release item.
The Mega Mystery Box retailed for $160 and features a retail value of at least $352. Each of those boxes contained not one but two pre-release items ahead of general release.

The British colonel is XIX Century, colonial wars. Most probably in Africa, may be wearing a red jacket or a khaki uniform. You may find miniatures in those disguises within the Black Powder book.

wow, there was a ton of value there. People who attend clubs will have plenty to trade as well

[@ChrisS-fh7zt]

Japanese Chi Nu or one of the last tank designs they was able to make before the surrender, it is about equal to a 75mm Sherman M4A1- A2

My knowledge of all of that is pretty much non-existent so all a chance to learn. Cool looking tank.

This sort of thing is intriguing but $220(?) is a lot of dosh to spend for stuff that may never, or indeed will never get used. It's fantastic value if you do play all these games, mind.

[@BoardGameToday]

Absolutely. If you're deep into Warlord and play more than one of their games, it's worth it. Or, if you just want figures to randomly paint. I personally liked their more focused release that was just Bolt Action (mostly) making it a bit easier to get into it with a themed box.
