Enter the Prophecy... a warrior will defeat the darkness... a General will have to decide... who will live and who will die?

UNIQUE HERO
HUNTER

MEDIUM 5

3 LIFE

SCAN VISOR
When a special ability involving a die roll is used against Samus, roll the die three times. The player controlling Samus chooses which roll is used.
JUMP
When counting spaces for Samus Aran's movement, ignore up to three spaces of elevation, and up to two water tiles across.
MORPH BALL
You may replace Samus Aran with Samus Aran (Morph Ball). Samus Aran (Morph Ball) may not be on the field at the same time as Samus Aran.
When recruiting figures, Samus Aran (Morph Ball) comes with Samus Aran for free.

Glyphs involving an increase in range can only be used with Samus Aran, but Samus Aran (Morph Ball) can only ever attack an adjacent figure.

COMBAT MODE
You may replace Samus Aran (Morph Ball) with Samus Aran at any point in the game. Samus Aran and Samus Aran (Morph Ball) may not be on the field at the same time. When recruiting figures, the 0 Point value means that Samus Aran (Morph Ball) comes with Samus Aran for free.


COMMENTARY ON THE SAMUS FIGURES:
I didn't want to make Samus too powerful for the game, so I gave her reasonable attack, defense, et cetera, and a reasonably high amount of points. The Morph Ball version may seem weak and unplayable, but I made it so that Samus could travel faster, yet be vulnerable to attack if she did. The plus side to this is that Samus can fit through smaller areas to collect items that were unavailable before, so on so forth. Just to announce, items that people like more than morph ball will be used as items(glyphs), which will contribute to a Hunter License with which the player can use any of Samus' specials. If this were an actual release, there would be Item packs where six of the items would be released randomly, that way a player can't all at once use all of Samus' specials. I put a lot of thought into this, so tell me what you think. I will post more additions later.

I cofused where did you get a samus fig to HS size. also I'd wait until metroid prime 3 comes out new powers and such

I think he's just visualizing what the stats might be like. I don't think he has a figure yet.

There was a game a few years back called Battleball, which was Heroscape's predecessor. it was by Hasbro, the figures are the same size as Heroscape, and the figures are wearing hightech armor. There is a robot whose head looks like Samus' helmet, so I did some disection and used glue, a paint job... it looks pretty good. I'll get pictures up eventually, my dad's camera is with a friend right now. I was actually thinking of going to a plastic company nearby and paying them to make one that would look exactly like her, then I found my Battleball set and decided to wait on it.
And I'm going to just add new glyphs to the Hunter License when Metroid Prime 3 comes out.
Anyway... I'll post the Space Pirate stats sometime today or tommorow.

A little link about how one guy made a custom samus aran.

Thanks for the link, I might have to try that. I've made several Samus figures... one from Zero Mission, one from Fusion, and the one I'll use will be one from Metroid Prime. I'll definately use the beads for shoulders idea. The next stats I will post are for Metroids.

Are you still working on these? This topic, among other things, kind of inspired me to make my own Samus, also from a Battleball figure. Im slowly working on a whole set of Nintendo figures. Id love to see what else you have thought of for these Metroid characters.
