4) Huge Figures
These have sold very well at JC Comics, and John wished they could keep them in stock. The Galactus, Starro, and Spectre figures were snatched up within a week no less than two Cthulu figures (HorrorClix) were sold. The fact is that these are very popular to the HeroClix gamers and even the non gamer. If the owners can keep these around the $100.00 price mark, then these will sell very well to comic book and game shops everywhere. Even now I hear players wanting a Galactus and Starro (and Cthulu). I suspect these are more popular in comic stores than game stores, but both are equally important for the future of HeroClix.
5) More Boxed Sets
These are great. Period. Being able to see the figures in the box made them very appealing, but more importantly a collector or comic fan could buy am entire superhero team in one box. No need for new maps or dice – just give me a good team to help reinforce my love of comic book superheroes (or villiains)! Both John and Jeff were very pleased with the sales of these sets, and they were especially happy with the packaging (which made them easier to sell). The same is also true for the newer Starter Sets.
6) Boxed Cards
Here’s an idea, how about selling 10 pre-selected Feats in a non-random pack? Cardboard is dirt cheap, and they wouldn’t have to pay any licensing fees to make them. Jeff felt that the $3.99 mark would be ideal, while John felt that $4.99 would be fair. However, I’d argue that you could go up to $7.99. Heck, they could even reprint some of the more sought-after cards and errata them. I would pay up to $9.99 for a pack that included a fixed Fortitude and Nanobots card. Want to make it more interesting? Offer another mail-away figure if you send in 2 proofs of purchase!
