I will maul a small kitten if I do not pull a Iron/War duo. Well, maybe not a kitten, they're too cute.

Posted by: The Yellow Fear on 9/7/2010 12:48:50 PM

are some super rares more difficult to pull than others?

Posted by: clam on 9/6/2010 6:15:53 PM

5 figs for each universe you say? ok here goes

DC
Joker & Harley Duo
New Sinestro (regular yellow lantern version)
A generic Royal flush ganger (to fill in for their missing numbers)
Dark Knight the Movie version of the Joker
dwarf clown henchman (from the killing joke) for the Joker...
and yes i do have a lot of love for the Joker, but who doesnt?

Marvel
New 616 Black Widow
Bucky Cap
Orginal Baron Zemo
Melta
Original Black Knight
In all fairness i could go on and on and on about Marvel characters i want, but most would be remakes. So i've managed to limit myself to just the top 5

Posted by: Ste on 9/4/2010 9:38:39 PM

after seeing who the super rares are i realized that the ploy to pay to play is alive and well, thanks neca/wizkids, you suck!

Posted by: varnae on 9/4/2010 8:16:51 AM

Wow guys stop whining about this set and wolverine, hes fine.
And especially stop bringing up old sets, The tournament legal modern sets include: arkham asylum, secret invasion, hammer of thor, brave and the bold, avengers, justice league, monsters and mutations, crisis and then finally web of spiderman. Okay? Im tired about hearing about non-legal sets like sinster, and supernova.

btw theres too many super rares i want, ugh

Posted by: bruce on 9/3/2010 3:47:29 PM

Well thats a relief, this is the best site hands down that has anything to do with heroclix.Seriously you guys do a great job,no BS thank you

Posted by: Adam on 9/3/2010 5:45:13 AM

@Adam, it's calm here at HeroClix World because of a computer crash :(

Not to worry though, I've got a backup, and we're still on track for some new and original HeroClix content next week, and it's Web of Spider-Man related! HeroClix World is the king of original HeroClix content, and we're not going to give up that crown easily.

if i dont get an ironman/warmachine or a groot i will kick and scream like a little girly!!!

Posted by: the toker on 9/2/2010 12:23:08 AM

Must be the calm before the storm and everyone is to excited about the big release that its all quiet,Well if you could have 5 figures you wanted made from DC and 5 from MARVEL who would they be.

Posted by: Adam on 9/1/2010 8:03:25 PM

@ Adam, yeah but you gotta give credit to NECA, they have been listening really well, hence us getting characters like Cardiac & Doppleganger.
Dont even get me started on the subject of Supes, its a dark and very ranty road that has been tread way to much. only advice i can give you is to assassinate him with extreme predjudice as soon as humanly possible in the hope that your opponent might think twice before spending that many points on him in the next game, its worked for me a few times.

Posted by: Ste on 8/30/2010 7:35:41 PM

Yeah i brought it up because me and my friend planned a cross over battle and while not really old he has the 226 Superman to my brand new 226 Thor and damn! They always give supes mad crazy dials and he is just a superMAN! Thor is a damn GOD,he doesnt have no powers that depend on the sun and supes other weakness Magic,Thor's hammer! and i know complaining dont do nothing but like we all know some characters get all the love and some just get whats left over.The most popular will always be in the sets and all you can do is hope for your guy to finally be called up to the show,unless you can really put together a rallying cry that will be heard.

Posted by: Adam on 8/30/2010 3:21:28 AM

@ Adam; with regards to over powered DC sets. YES YES YES! i was saying this constantly over the first few years of collecting. My main gaming buddy is a DC nut, and while im partial to a little Bat-man every now and then im much more in the Marvel camp. this led to a hell of a lot of DC vs Marvel show-downs and i couldnt believe how hardcore so many of the DC equivalents were by comparrison.

I think the balance of power has shifted a lot over the last few sets though, and they are now much more equal in power to point level.

The upside for me from this is that it forced me to play much more tactically and be very aware of my characters abilities/strengths & weaknesses throughout thier dial progression. reckon the current win to loss ratio against the guy in question is now something along the lines of 5:1, we even joke that he must be a masochist. but now i just bragging and no one likes a big head

Posted by: Ste on 8/29/2010 9:28:10 PM

@ Theo, i know what you mean, i tend to feel the same when we get cosmic style sets, i completely avioded buying any boosters of Super Nova for this same reason and stuck to singles on the secondary market. you have to wonder though, with this more focused approach, will certain sets create a lot of similar discontent (probably too strong a word to use)going forward. i know personnally my interest would be greatly reduced for a FF set or Guardians of the Galaxy set

Posted by: Ste on 8/29/2010 9:08:59 PM

STE. Dont get me wrong there are some cool figs, its juts this set dosnt make me super exiceted. Then again every once in while there are some sets that i dont get hiped up about. like Sinister, Collateral Damge, Avengers, and Arkam. I guess this one just had to be apart of the cycle. Thats all.

Posted by: theo on 8/29/2010 5:43:30 PM

My bad they said 40 i believe for the first time

Posted by: Adam on 8/29/2010 4:35:57 PM

The Ufoes,Molten Man,Will-O-Wisp,Red Hulk,Red She Hulk,Menace,Daken,Spider Hulk,Cosmic Spidey,Toxin,Groot,Iron Patriot,The Spot,Symbiote,Chameleon,Cardiac,Puma,Morlon, there is some i am missing,but they said just 30 new not the whole set and some of the fig's they made well not new are different enough to keep most but not all of us happy,u just gotta wait till next time if you really want someone bad enough start by voiceing it alot,or play and win the major hero clix tournament and get to create your own.

Posted by: Adam on 8/29/2010 4:34:27 PM

Web of Spiderman seems like an nice set, but I remember the powers that be saying a few months ago that this set would feature Marvel characters who have never been done before, well I guess that was not entirely true. I'm tired of all this talk about Wolverine, he's been done before, many times by the way. So has Spider-Man. So has Warpath. You guys get the picture. How about we do a set that reaches deep into the corners of the Marvel Universe and pulls out characters we might have forgotten about and put them to clix-form. Now that would be cool. I understand they sometimes have to do some repeats of certain characters, but make that 20% of the set and the rest is new people we've never seen before. Personally I'd like to see the Marvel horror guys done, like Werewolf By Night, Dracula, and Frankenstien's Monster. Just my humble opinions though. Thanks.

Posted by: Greg on 8/29/2010 8:14:23 AM

Avengers im down,I just hope i get some great new bad guys I really want the Brotherhood bad,but whatever they decide Im buying.Has anyone noticed when you go through your collection how powerfull DC is to Marvel now i like both,i lean more towards Marvel and might pass on the 75th just because but you never know,but alot of older fig's are sick for DC and go a long way,and Wolverine is not one of my most fav's the one from sinister has helped me win a battle or two but he should of been at least 7 maybe 8 clicks because he fights everyone! but like Ste im done complaining whats done is done.Man i love Hero Clicks

Posted by: Adam on 8/29/2010 3:39:24 AM

im not mad per say, just think Wolverine deserves a longer dial, his powers are fine, i would even be happy if they were toned down a touch just lasted a few clicks longer, there are still a fair few dials in the set that pass the 7 click mark, that i feel are less deserving. but hay i just crying over spilt milk now so i'll give it a rest now... sorry for bending everyones ears for so long.

You are right (Adam) it is a street level set and shouldnt compare to a set of Gods, and i too cannot wait to see whats next! praying for another avengers themed set myself_ Bucky Cap, Luke Cage, Mockingbird, Hawkeye, Ares and Ms Marvel; all either long over due or in-need of a revamp, hell they can even throw in a new Wolverine & Spidey that are more up for dealing with greater threats than those in WoS, while these reasons are all good and well im biased as im still very much in love with the first Avengers set we got

Posted by: Ste on 8/28/2010 7:29:45 PM

I think everybody is mad at wolverine's dial but like i said i think what they may be trying to do is make the set's close to who fights them in Hammer of Thor the dials last longer because you got some brutes in there and its god vs god,and in Web you got alot of spiderman figures who can fight in their set and some old sets but are not super power houses.They are making them close in stats to fight who they really fight,They changed it up from the last set before Hammer of Thor they were all pretty powerful now i think it will vary from set to set,Am i happy,hey it could always be better but now i just wanna know whats next after web for marvel

Posted by: Adam on 8/28/2010 5:08:12 AM

@ Theo. Dude the dails are great, a bit short yeah but still great. I think the Wolverine dial is about 3 clicks to short but i completely agree with you on Nightcrawer, this is the best representation of him to date.
My only real gripe (other than dial shortness) is that the wall-corner sculpt of Spidey has been well and truely over used (4 in total inc the LE)but even this is a very iconic image

Posted by: Ste on 8/27/2010 10:34:38 PM

Have now seen all the dials with the exception of a few LEs and am now even more excited for the big day!
Daken (being a mega DA fan) i am really looking forward to getting my hands on. Bullseye is potentially the best sharpshooter in the game and Red hulk is an absolute beast!
while i normally get bricks i reckon im gonna go case level with this one!
one last point, Doc Oc can use perplex 4 times a turn but only on himself! he's a veritable one man army but doesnt seem to play well with others

Posted by: Ste on 8/27/2010 10:26:04 PM

No it is not the single character focus, I actually like it when they base a good portion of the set on one particular thing. I just think that most of the stats are not worth the points or, the stats mess up the character. Like the Hulks, ALL OF THEM. Then again some of them are dead on like Wolverine and Nightcrawler. I just want all the clicks to have proper stats, points, and powers to go to the chacter thats all.

Posted by: theo on 8/27/2010 10:14:13 PM

@ theo. well aside from poor stats Sinister did have one of the best selections of figs as well as some of the nicer sculpts so i cant blame you, i even felt similarly when i saw HoTs line up, but i totally ended up loving that set once i had it in my grubby mitts... maybe its down to the hiatus but now i cant get enough of it.
Just a quick question, is it the single character focus thats put you off or something else???

Posted by: Ste on 8/27/2010 9:11:15 PM

I am REALLY NOT impressed with this set at all. Dont get me wrong there are a few cool ones but, I think I would prefer to buy a brick of Sinister then this set.

Posted by: theo on 8/27/2010 8:38:20 PM

I compared sinister wolverine versus web wolverine and sinister wolverine has more clicks for less cost. Wasn't a ton of difference in powers or state either.

Posted by: drax on 8/25/2010 9:16:52 PM

It looks like after i checked it out that hammer of thor is stronger and the figures on average have more clicks,while web of spiderman have fewer clicks. It makes sense when you compare them to who they fight ,with a few exceptions i think i see the formula and it looks good to me now.

Posted by: Adam on 8/25/2010 3:55:46 AM

i do prefer longer dials over short heavy hitters that are also one hit wonders, although i'd rather there was a better balance between the two. a lot of these longer proved to be nothing more than moving barriers with pathetic combat values after the first few clicks.

I said in another post that gold defence appears to be a lot less predominent in more recent sets although it crops up here and there in strange places (proff Zoom!?! WTF) this combined with shorter dials makes for a much shorter game and i guessing thats what they (Wizkids) are going for. it enables larger tourneys and those playing for fun end up playing much larger games. last time me and my main gaming bud played 300pts it lasted 15 mins so 600+ has become our average just so we get a decently long game.
am i complaining here??? well kind of, although by doing so i feel as though im actually asking for power creep, and that makes me feel dirty in a bad way

Posted by: Ste on 8/24/2010 11:50:38 AM

"Is it just me or does anybody last longer than 6 clicks whats the deal with that!"

We had a Golden Age vs Modern Age game last week and noticed that. We came to the conclusion that older figs had longer dials with less powers/lower numbers while the new ones pack more Bang into a shorter dial.

Posted by: Phyl on 8/24/2010 4:20:57 AM

Is it just me or does anybody last longer than 6 clicks whats the deal with that!

Posted by: Adam on 8/24/2010 3:40:20 AM

Also it seems to me we agree on some of the clicks such as wolverine being to weak,it just bugs me when they dont make them as good as they really could be with the attributes and number of click dials they deserve,obviously you know your clicks and i respect that more than most but you have to admit sometimes the people in charge love a figure too much Elektra 160 points and sometimes they show no love at all cough cough Bi beast 73, Tombstone 58, Grey Gargoyle 75 they all have fought thor or the hulk in great battles in comics and now they wouldnt last a round 2.As i said before im just paticular to what they have been and what they give us.No disrespect intended just what i think,i just love the battle my friend

Posted by: Adam on 8/22/2010 3:22:55 AM

I hear you bro its just thor is one of my fav's and im not asking for crazy points but at 235 the thor who also happens to be an avenger is pretty damn good and has imperv,and that was my biggest problem.Now i know the new thor is sick but im real paticular with my fav's like Hercules even thor himself said hercs better at hand to hand combat and he stopped the craziest hulk in comics anyone has ever seen and is 142 points while good not great i also love wonder woman whta man doesnt but making her 248 points is insane,i know DC VS MARVEL but come on,not to say they are not both great but you know what Im saying,Thor at least deserved one click of imperv and its not not his strength its his worthyness to hold the hammer or anyone could hold it lol

Posted by: Adam on 8/22/2010 3:08:13 AM

@ Adam, we seem to be having a friendly misunderstanding lol. This Thor can give most Supermen clix a good run for thier money, and clobber all but the best (chase minis) of them, he even gets Invulnerability back for his last few clixs.
As for Super strength, well that should be a given as you need that kind of strength to even pick up the Hammer in the first place. could he be better, hell yes, but i have to ask you this, how much playability would he loose on account of the vast increase in his points.
He'd end up as another Ares, someone who's got a great dial but rarely sees any play on account of his points value.
To top it off he was a common, so easy to get hold of.
Now Spider-man, Captain America, Daredevil and Wolverine need the kind of VIP treatment your talking about, coz as it stands they are great dials but tend to be one hit wonders when faced with Thor or any other like powered figure in the game. these are the kind of guys that need a bit of beefing up to the 100-150pts range.

Posted by: Ste on 8/21/2010 7:25:20 PM

I cannot believe they made a Spot figure. That is freaking awesome!

Posted by: Wombabtoy on 8/21/2010 11:37:54 AM

Well consider this Thor is Odin's son and he has 18 invulnerability,I guess being the heir of asgard Impervious is too stong for him because Volstagg has it and while he is great he is no Thor,also the special thor can use super strength is wasted it should be more like thor can use exploit or energy explosion because he does not carry the hammer just for looks

Posted by: Adam on 8/21/2010 3:16:49 AM

Can cosmic spidey shoot through stealth?

Posted by: childpredator on 8/21/2010 1:46:15 AM

What-what-WHAT!?! not happy with Thor from HoT!?! dude that clix is awesome! he's better than the power cosmic mighty thor and over 50pts cheaper! hell you can stick repulsor shileds and fortitude on him and he'll still be cheaper. whats not to like really???

Posted by: Ste on 8/20/2010 7:05:40 PM

Love the new heroclix but cant wait to see marvels next set,am still not happy with thor from hammer of thor maybe make an ultimate version that would be sick.I just want em all,and i really like villians need more more more

Posted by: Adam on 8/20/2010 3:28:24 AM

@ turdburgler
main way to get it is playing in the release event at your local store. or you could wait a few weeks til they start showing up on Ebay.
Sigh, although i am loving this set 2 things upset me.
1 Incomplete Dark Avengers team, and yes i will moan about this until i gat the full team and that includes a new Sentry and a more useable Ares, Both with DA key words, hell i think Ares should get HAMMER as a key word too, considering he was HAMMER's stratagist.
2 Still no Bucky-Cap! the people need a bBucky-Cap dammit!!!!

Posted by: Ste on 8/20/2010 1:22:10 AM

how do you go about getting the LE fig toxin?

Posted by: turdburgler on 8/19/2010 7:32:43 PM

@CaptainAwesome: yup! There are 3 spider-mans on the wall! As a matter of fact, Eric "Slade Wilson" Schaen submitted a new SLADE FILES recently, focusing on the symbiote version. (comings soon)

Posted by: The Le on 8/19/2010 6:22:58 PM

Quick question: I thought i remembered from earlier spoilers(confirmed with a quick look back) that there was a symbiote spiderman also on a wall. Does this mean there are 3 spidermen in this set? 4 if you count the mail away fig?

Posted by: CaptainAwesome on 8/19/2010 5:23:22 PM

I'm with Adam. I want to see more X-Men!!! Yeeeahhh!! And talking about Web of Spiderman, I need those symbiots!!! all of them!!!

Posted by: JasonCR on 8/19/2010 4:24:45 PM

I'm w/ you Adam.

Posted by: Nightcrawler on 8/19/2010 2:25:00 PM

They need a brotherhood starter pack or the next marvel set should include some maybe sabretooth,juggernaut,magneto,mystique, i mean come on and a new hulk would be nice has not been the origonal green guy in quite awhile.Or a starter pack of Age of Apocalypse for his four horsemen now we are talking who's with me

Posted by: adam on 8/19/2010 4:19:31 AM

ok then let me ask you this.. say if peter parker is on his last click and he has an action token on him.. can you push him to turn into his alter ego and the alter ego takes a click or does peter parker die?

Posted by: diddly on 8/18/2010 11:54:22 AM

yes you can have both figs. That some good strategy that I use, keeping the first in the back ground, then beating ass with the AE, then bring it back gain for a little more ass beatery

Posted by: seven-feathers on 8/18/2010 11:23:16 AM

can you have an alter ego character and the character he turns into on the same team at the same time?
example
norman osborn 66pts
iron patriot 150pts

total points 216pts

Posted by: diddly on 8/18/2010 10:28:59 AM

its about time a cardiac click is finally coming out!!!! but what about a man-spider and stix and stones duo figure? when do they get sculpts? i also heard you guys are redistributing the fantastic four starter set. you should do a separation anxiety or a satans six starter set those would be most awesome! or a starter set that hasn't been done yet.

Posted by: 5 star zombie killa on 8/17/2010 3:35:55 AM

@ captain awesome.
She was just an example, fact of the matter is is that we have way to many characters that have 4+ damage and either Super strength, ranged combat expert or close combat expert in this game that characters like Cap and Wolverine should have longer dials so they dont end up as one hit woonder characters. Look at he post civil war mighty avengers as a team, in clix form over 2 thirds of this team can KO both Wolverine an Cap in a single hit, now i know the team is a particularely heavy hitting team, but we all know Cap and Wolverine can handle their fair share of heavy hitters.

Posted by: Ste on 8/16/2010 7:46:30 PM

I'd like to see a new heroclix figure with the ability to heal two heroclixs at the same time.(special power)when this heroclix heals one figure treat healing normal.When this figure heals two figures at the same time give the healer one clix of damage.

Posted by: Alan on 8/16/2010 11:08:57 AM

I'd like to see a feat card called( a full dose of venom) instead of just one clix of damage next to someone with poision you take the full damage dial.

Posted by: Brian on 8/16/2010 11:02:25 AM

according to hcrealms it's the spiderman team ability, which is what i would assume

Posted by: drivenbyapathy on 8/15/2010 9:11:04 PM

@Joe
Yeah I think that Bag-Mans second Team couldbe Power Cosmic... i dont read comics so i cant really prove anything. But the team insignia looks like Galactus' Helmet.

Posted by: 10heroclick12 on 8/15/2010 9:07:14 PM

I agree with 10heroclick12, looks like another team on Bombastic Bag-Man's base, it looks like mystics to me but I'm by no means 100% on that.

Posted by: Joe on 8/15/2010 8:53:49 PM

@Ste
Well i agree with you in concept about the dials of those 2 characters being short. We can't compare everyone to Ms.Skrullvell or we wouldnt use anyone else.

Posted by: CaptainAwesome on 8/15/2010 12:27:23 PM

I was just looking at the Bombastic BagMan's base, and i believe there are 2 team icons on his base..??.. I know ones the fantastic 4 insignia, but i fail to identify the other. It might just be me, but it looks pretty real.

Posted by: 10heroclick12 on 8/14/2010 11:49:29 PM

Sorry to be a moaner but is it just me or is Wolverines dial a little on the short side? even with his Regen ability i can see him going down a little too easy? in all honesty i would have prefered regular regen and paid the points for auto regen

I felt the same with with smokey feet Cap, great dial, provided someone with super strength doesnt get the first hit in and KO them with a heavy object. as it stands SI Ms Marvel can KO each of them in a 2 turn period, provided she's got a little perplex or prob support, i just see Cap and Wolverine (more so than most) in it for the long haul and not the first to fall

Posted by: Ste on 8/14/2010 7:54:33 PM

My normal method is to buy a brick in store, trade any duff SRs i pull (on average i'll only actually want about half the SRs in any given set)for either ones i want or failing that i'll settle for Rares that i didnt pull and want bad.
Next port of call is the store's singles cabinet, after that i fall back onto the online retailers to fill any gaps and bulk out my minions/generics.

Although i have never actually sent off for the BibtB figure, i like to support my local retailer as its also my gaming venue. only reason i dont get my generics in store is because they price them a rarity higher as they know people want multiples.

With WoS i am reaally contemplating getting a case, The set looks awesome, and although there is as always a few turkeys in my eyes, i want the vast majority of the SRs this time around

Posted by: Ste on 8/14/2010 7:43:30 PM

Thanks for the advice. The actual cost for all of the figs on troll and toad was like 440$. I think ill stick with buying a case, or even 3 bricks. Thanks man.

Posted by: 10heroclick12 on 8/14/2010 3:49:07 PM

With that kind of money, I recommend buying 1 case, or even 3 bricks. You will likely get duplicate rares and SRs, but you can use these to trade for figures you want... and you should also buy from your local store so that you can get the brick figure (typically you can't get the free brick figure from an online store)

Posted by: The Le on 8/14/2010 3:28:15 PM

I just went 2 troll and toad to the WOS Singles Preorder Page and did some math. the cost of buying every figure from common to SR will cost over 250$. Buying 1 case of WOS costs 160$. Like "Ste" says, u will get on average 6-8 SR's;10 SR's if your lucky. So, using these results, what should i do????

Posted by: 10heroclick12 on 8/14/2010 3:06:31 PM

would u think buying a case of the web of spiderman would be just as good as buying the figs u want online? i mean like what "Ste" said. U probably wont get every fig and your not even garaunteed to get a SR that u would want (like Iron Man/War Machine Duo Fig) when buying a case. Whats the Best thing 2 Do????

Posted by: 10heroclick12 on 8/14/2010 2:52:19 PM

This is one of the characters that fortunately we will have now on this expansion. Even though he is not such a powerful figure, you know...the fact of having another spidey's ally in clix is just great. The scuplture is very cool!!!

Posted by: JasonCR on 8/12/2010 5:10:40 PM

i believe that indicates that the character has a trait...

Posted by: flanders on 8/12/2010 2:14:30 PM

and what does the star by the defense symbol mean?

Posted by: Dylan on 8/11/2010 11:15:32 PM

you should show Daken's clicks and traits

Posted by: Dylan on 8/11/2010 11:02:51 PM

Just dreaming im affaid. you get an average of 3-4 SRs per brick and the full set has around 15. but i too wish it were possible.
I beleave it was the case back in the old REV days when a case wase 4 bricks of 12 boosters a piece, but a case was a lot more exspensive back then and their was still no guarantee

Posted by: Ste on 8/11/2010 6:51:59 PM

is it possible to own all 64 figs by buying a case? or is that too good to be true? you would think that you would condidering that you will be getting 100 figs in a case.

Posted by: the diddler on 8/11/2010 11:36:08 AM

What about the Uk, do we have a seperate release date or have NECA managed to sort the bugs out so we get them in rainy old england at the same time?

Posted by: Ste on 8/10/2010 7:13:19 PM

@spidey It was supposed to come out two days ago... but they pushed it back... so now its coming out on september 8th... that is if they dont change it again...

Posted by: TheFreestyleMonk on 8/10/2010 3:39:03 AM

when is this set coming out?!!!

Posted by: spidey on 8/8/2010 3:05:47 PM

@mike

i don't think it will change the game, Cosmic Spidey is 319 points not alot of ppl are gonna waste that chunk of their build just to be able to shoot through walls and what not. and ppl will always find ways around him. so i wouldn't worry to much

Posted by: refrusdraob on 8/7/2010 1:02:34 PM

@refrusdrob

thanks man, i also found out his special trait is uni vision and its line of fire is never blocked...... i feel as if thats gonna change the way the game is played or am i over doing it...

Posted by: mike k on 8/7/2010 2:05:40 AM

WTF no chases thats crazy!!!!!!

Posted by: B&B on 8/6/2010 8:36:36 PM

@mike k

there are no chases in WOS at all, confirmed by mister Ziran on the Realms

Posted by: refrusdraob on 8/6/2010 6:50:38 PM

does anyone know if cosmic spider-man is a chase because that would be very upsetting... he was the one powerhouse ive been waiting for.

I just have to say on this expension that, in many ways, it has surpassed my expectations. I love the alter-egos on this new collection and the Anti-Venom is just...wooooow!!! I love that sculpt!!!
And another important thing to mention is the fact that they included many chanracters that did not have a clix before, and now they have; and the new version of previous characters like Carnage is just...Great!!! So, I can't wait any more for the release!!!

yeas it is.
reason for the sculpt issues, multiple sculpters, one of which is amazing another of which is not so hot and tends to ignore simple continuity issues like scale. Said iffy sculpter is also a hugh DC fan and just plain isnt a fan of Marvel so probably just sees his Marvel sculpts as a way of paying his bills.
Look at secret Invasion; Iron man, Nick Fury & Spider-man were all sculpted by the same guy, and im betting he also sculpted Prowler due to his over-bearing stature!
same sculpter when working on DC, Green arrow in classic garb with 3 arrows strung on his bow & that awesome wall crawling blue beetle... can anybody else see Favouritism here or is it just me

some of those figures are a little bit doughy-ish and not sculpted well, but some are also very awesome looking. was that really blurry photo of scarlet spider?

Posted by: Dreadnaught on 8/5/2010 7:25:29 PM

Ok one more point, what on earth could justify a 319pt fig that isnt indomnitable and has at the very least 2 clicks of KO, that trait must be Banging! on Cosmic-Spiderman!?!

Posted by: Ste on 8/5/2010 7:24:47 PM

was hoping for more from wolverine, and for him not to have an ability tying him to X-force, should have seen that coming really!
Guess i'll be hoping to get my hands on the LE version now then.
his healing factor is ok but i would have liked some regular regen on his last click or two. way it is there he'll be great against hordes but get panned the second a heavy hitter or someone with a little luck and some blades/claws/fangs gets to him.

What i'd really like to know is what we get when we pay 220pts for an indomnitable red hulk! NECA had the smarts to click all the minis in the cabinet to KO before putting them on desplay.

and finally i guess we can pretty much confirm the chases as Spider-hulk, Cosmic-Spider, Bag-Man and probably Scarlet-Spider (although the latter may just be an LE)as from what i can see of the numbers on the bases, normally anything past #60 is Chase or LE

Posted by: Ste on 8/5/2010 7:13:04 PM

No. Bloody. Way! Paper Bag Man? That's awesome! That is THE definition of a chase figure. Who's going to need it? How many people know what he is or is from? It's great! Would I like one? Sure, but I'm not going to get all torn up about it if my luck from HoT doesn't pull through to WoS. Good on ya, WizNECA.

i want to see the cosmic spidys dial so bad he looks boss

Posted by: bonez on 8/5/2010 10:27:32 AM

@TheFReestyleMonk The Star tell you the figure has a trait to make it easier to remember during the game.

Posted by: Behemoth on 8/5/2010 5:55:04 AM

So everything looks mad chill, super excited to get another Runaways team member, hopeful they do Xavin...Spider-Hulk gets a thumbs up...

Posted by: seven-feathers on 8/5/2010 5:02:32 AM

Does anybody know what the star on the dial means?

Posted by: TheFreestyleMonk on 8/5/2010 4:36:30 AM

I'm really considering getting 2 bricks now!!! Thanks for posting guys!

Posted by: Ianator on 8/5/2010 4:04:44 AM

The one in the red jacket is Victor Mancha, don't know why there are flames on his hands, they probably should be bolts of electricity. He's the "son" of Ultron (which explains the Indomitable), and one of the Runaways, only Xavin is needed from the mainstays for that team

Posted by: Ouchmaker on 8/5/2010 3:33:54 AM

it says victer something. but tell me thats not scarlet spider cosmic and hulk spidermen is nice and i told you so on the venoms! lol altough bag man i did not see cxoming!

Posted by: jack on 8/5/2010 2:19:29 AM

Did they seriously do a Venom/Antivenom repaint?

That is just depressing.

Posted by: Boundforgreatness on 8/5/2010 2:16:43 AM

I think that guy with the flames is a runway...

Posted by: B&B on 8/4/2010 4:19:22 PM

can we see some more dials and/or a official list in order please? me will love you long time...

Posted by: kraig on 8/4/2010 1:16:44 PM

The guy with flames behind him to me looks a bit like Dr. Strange. I don't think it could be Pyro or Human Torch based on outfit and what is visible on face. The flames could be meant to distract and could have nothing to do with the character though. The outfit is a bit like something from marvel 1602 maybe?

Posted by: Bobby on 8/2/2010 10:54:34 PM

@ Static
Think the brown hunched over guy is Vermin (a rat featured spidey villian)
The regular looking guy in the red jacket, i could be wrong but i reckon its Amedeus Cho (i know i must have spelt that wrong)
think the Big guy infront of the tent card is Warpath and the chick with the spear (although i dont think she has a spear) is X23, only reason i can give for these two is that the non-LE Wolverine is in X-Force garb so i'd expect at least a couple of this team to make a showing along side him.
Hope this helps and by all means blow holes in my theories, if im wrong i'd like to know.

Posted by: Ste on 8/2/2010 6:53:14 PM

Aarghhhh!

Green+White-gold bracers (Photo 4 at front to left of Police & X-Ray) This one is also familiar to me, but again I cannot remember who it is!

I just remembered who this is!!!! It's Marvel Boy (Noh Varr) in the costume before his current Avengers one.

Posted by: Static on 8/2/2010 11:56:59 AM

I was in a rush to finish my last post as I was going out and thus I forgot to mention the locations of those figures I hadn’t been able to identify. So, any help with these ‘guys’?

Big guy in black & white (Photo 2 in front of the Release Info Card) This one is annoyingly familiar, but I cannot remember who it is!

Normal looking guy in red (Photo 2 behind Anit-Venom) Is this the Eddie Brock that someone mentioned?

Female with Spear (Photo 2 in front of Iron Man & War Machine duo figure) Could be a Kraven?

Symbiote alone? (Photo 2- again very hard to see- surrounded by Green Goblin, Hawkeye (Bullseye), Scorpion and Female with Spear)

Black Guy in white jacket with gun (Photo 3 at the front left of J. Johah Jameson)

Squatting figure on object (Photo 3- very hard to see towards the back- between Prowler (and what I believe to be) Firestar. Also between red SpiderMan and Solo)

Brown hunched over Figure (Photo 4 Left side in front of Thug with gun)

Green+White-gold bracers (Photo 4 at front to left of Police & X-Ray) This one is also familiar to me, but again I cannot remember who it is!

Guy with Flames behind him (Photo 4 front left figure to the left of Green+White-gold bracers)

Including Deadpool (whom I forgot to put in my initial list- thanks Trevor) that makes 61 figures + the ‘Buy It By The Brick’ figure! So how many ‘Chase’ figures are there going to be and which ones are they?

Posted by: Static on 8/2/2010 11:40:49 AM

Were did you find the information on the Prize Kit. Our store in Copenhagen cannot find any information on this.

Posted by: Jan Robert Andersen on 8/2/2010 7:09:23 AM

Posted by: trever on 8/2/2010 12:03:52 AM
