Default Reprint Munchkin Quest?

Hi any plans to reprint Munchkin Quest, this year or next year? This set is out of print, and it's near impossible to find.
Thanks,
K.

We don't have any current plans to do so, no. Munchkin Quest is very expensive to print, and the last printing had some minor QC issues that mean the next printing will likely require re-tooling some pieces, making it more expensive still.

You might be able to find a store that takes online orders and still has a copy. Failing that, perhaps someone in the Trading Post forum (a ways below this one) could pick up a copy and ship it to you.

Sorry that your quest (heh heh) has been frustrating. We never *like* letting games go out of print, but sometimes it's the right answer.

(To head something off at the pass: no, we don't have any interest in running a crowdfunding campaign to reprint the game.)

That is a real shame, while not my favourite game, it still had its charms.

I managed to recently find a 2011 printing of Munchkin Quest from a guy who had a game warehouse in Denver, CO. I think I paid a total of $48-$49 (which included the shipping cost)....so I was happy I found a good deal. It took me a while to find sites that had the game, but I eventually found one, and the guy emailed back and forth with me before buying to confirm the printing version and it's condition...which was brand new. Now I'm just trying to wrap my head around all the rules. :-)

Edit: it was the last copy he had left. Bought it from a site called TimeWellSpentGames.com

I have been looking every where for a copy of this... and some copies I have found that have been in English are going for upwards of 300$US... I have managed to find some one in the UK, who will post to Australia, but even that is going to be pricey...

I did jsut discover that on this Website it mentions Munchkin Quest, is "Coming Soon" but no other information has dates etc.

Can any one shed some light on this? :)

In the new section it states that it's expected in July.

Hang on until then it will be worth it!

I wonder if that's a mistake. They updated the site and they're still fixing stuff. But I want a new Munchkin Quest too!
