It took a little bit of time but WotC/Hasbro has made it official that the last nail has been driven into the coffin for Heroscape. I personally think this posting to their customer service Q&A website, long before is just the icing on the cake as to how poorly the cancellation has been handled:
Q: Why are you cancelling the Heroscape line?
A: We have chosen to focus our business efforts on our core brands.
Q: How long will Heroscape products remain available in stores?
A: There is no specific limitation on this. They will remain available as long as supplies last.
Q: Will Wizards be releasing any more Heroscape products before the line is cancelled?
A: Yes! The final expansion set, named Moltenclaw’s Invasion, will be released on November 16, 2010.
Q: Will you continue to support product replacement for damaged or defective Heroscape game pieces?
A: Yes, we will continue to do so as per our normal product replacement schedule.
Q: I have other questions, not answered by this FAQ. Where can I go to ask those?
A: Feel free to email in any additional questions to customer service.
Nice!
Awfully warm and fuzzy isn’t it?
