Heroclix, Fear Itself release




Yes, he's from a superhero game but he's not a well known enough character that folks will recognize him right off the bat.

Figure looks imposing (though he's about Size 4), and I think he would fit the Heroscaper universe's look and feel.

I'm working on a custom for him now - going futuristic gladiator/cyborg. But I could also see him having a 'mystical' background instead of a technological one.

I like him. He looks like could be from Arctorus.

Fear Itself availability is going to be ridiculously low, though - so much so that C3G is probably mostly ignoring it, and our standards are a lot lower than you guys in that department.

Some of them from that set have a ton of availability over here, such as Valkyrie and Red She Hulk

Really? From what I've seen there's not even enough boosters to go around for HeroClix players.

Yeah plenty of Valkyrie, Red She Hulk, Iron Fists and a couple of others, although that is literally it Quite glad about those three to be honest, I've been wanting those three for sometime went to a shop called Forbidden Planet today, they had loads of different Heroclix sets in there, about 7 different sets, one being Fear Itself. I asked the man at the cashier about them, and apparently it's not that popular over here, barely anyone buys them, so there are plenty here

We have a Forbidden Planet here in New York as well. It's actually where my avatar photo was taken, since I used to work there. Are you talking about the one in London? I was there last year, and it was the largest comic book store I'd ever seen.

Wow, that's pretty cool! It seems like a great place! No the one in Birmingham, its not that big, but there was loads of comics there, and loads of heroclix. Amazing Spider-Man, Teen Titans, Man of Steel, Lord of the Rings, Fear Itself, Street Fighter and Gears of War. If I'm lucky the bigger one in Wolverhampton will have even more.

Also, I feel like he needs some sort of power to demonstrate the Mariedan's resolve, ingenuity, and will to survive. All of the C3V figures demonstrate this - Kira Jax's Exploit Weakness (Ingenuity), the Resistance Fighter's Guerilla Tactics (will to survive), and the Corps' To The Last Man (resolve)- ever since I heard of Mariedans, these themes seemed overarching to me.

As for a shark/menacer hero to go with them, I agree. I would like to see a Krug/Hulk power but for defense:
Resolve: When [Mariedan hero] is defending against a normal attack, he receives one extra defense die for each Wound Marker he has, up to a maximum of 5 extra defense dice for Resolve.

Start him with 2 defense. If you want to get really crazy, give him counter-strike too!

Maybe this should discussion should be continued on the Suggestions for the C3V Design Team thread though.

Most of the miniatures for the upcoming Pathfinder Skull & Shackles release are now shown at: http://pathfinderminis.com/gallery7.htm

Besides the range of pirates, there are a few other interesting figures:
Giant Wasp - uncommon, could be good Aquila predator
Winged devil figures (daughters of Imerta) - Valkrill kyrie?
Wererat - a follower for the Werewolf Lord?
Rat Swarm - good swarming vermin for Morgoloth
Scourge Hellknight - a leader for the Deathknights?
Wereshark/Sharkmen - could be good vicious Valkrill allies

Jakaw Razorbeak could make a Raptorian hero to go with the Sneaks...

Giant Wasp is a definite Aquilla unit - it'll look so perfect next to Sujoah I can't even believe it.

Sweet! So many Pirates.
