All of the information I provided was taken from playtesting results. I can only assume that figures that were used for playtesting are finalized.

What took you so long?

You know what happens when you assume?

Not always. We use the results of that playtesting to determine the cost, so the cost could easily change after the playtesting.

And sometimes powers are tweaked as well. The Alfred that was released was different than the one I playtested.

Since you asked me so kindly, I'll tell you my good fellow,
the figure you seek is clearly not yellow.

On two legs this figure does stand,
with a lurking look and a club in his hand.

And now you know the figure we chose,
go tell your friends and lie to your foes.

...I think I'm right.

At least I narrowed it down to the two figures that I already bought.

Thanks johnny!

You´re on my list!

About figure choices for unreleased figures I can tell you this... After C3G started posting pictures of the figures to be used along with playtesting sign-up, there´s only a good few handfulls of figures where the final figure choice hasn´t been revealed, and most of those are taken care of with the release of wave 4. After that you should be pretty much capable of planning your clix purchases based on solid info.
I can´t promise anything yet, but after the wave 4 release, if you like, I´ll have a talk with the Heroes about maybe revealing the figure choices for the few remaining Mystery Men...

But I can promise you that, while we may tease and around here, we would never post misleading info that would make you buy unnescessary, expensive figures.

I believe you are both misunderstanding me. I'm not taking them from the playtesting results from those figures. I'm getting them from playtesting results of figures like Anti-Monitor. If Anti-Monitor is being playtested by figures that are still "pending", you have a major issue with your playtesting. I sincerely doubt this is the case. I'd venture that those figures are finalized if they're being used to playtest other figures.

We have an on deck thread where FINALIZED units sit and wait to be released to the public in a wave. So there are several Lantern's that haven't come out yet, but we playtest with them quite a bit.

Those two Daredevil figures cost me 50 cents each.

I think this is exactly what I'm saying. You playtest with these finalized units and I pull information about them from the playtest sheets that have been released.

Good points being made here... I think we can solve the issue by saying that even though the points values floating around here are certainly in the ballpark, nothing is 100% final before a card is released, printed and played with.
Unreleased figures are tweaked and fine tuned all the time, including final points costs.
