The top three was actually pretty hard to choose, since there were so many good figures out there, like the Mutant Mayhem Veteran Cloak. Then there were the plain old overrated HeroClix figures that everyone gushed over, for reasons beyond me. So let’s look at some of those.

Top Overrated figures: Unleashed Cyborg, Armor Wars War Machine, and especially Sinister Nick Fury.

For 63 points, you basically get a hiding wussy with six clicks of life. His damage is certainly impressive though, and that Psychic Blast goes well with that [8] range. But what is he exactly? Is he an attack piece or a utility piece? Leadership isn’t too useful these days, and pushing him out of his only damage reduction click isn’t necessarily the best idea, even if it does give him Outwit for two clicks. Don’t get me wrong, I have seen him used well, but only when he’s the primary attacker with every other piece supporting him… which is a very risky strategy for a piece that can die so easily. He’s not bad, but he’s certainly not great. He’s just… overrated.
