Doesn't Craig have a heroscapers account? Couldn't somebody ask him if he knows?

I don't know how many sets were created, but Chris Nelson, who did much of the MarvelScape work, has a set of them.

Don't think of it as being outnumbered. Think of it as having a wide shot selection!

Re: Marvel:Reinforcements Arrive - Never To Be Released (Pho

Marvel Set didn't sell very well around here in NC and VA. I am guessing that maybe the lack of sells resulted in a lack of interest by Hasbro - I mean isn't that almost always the case. If it isn't Monopoly, Trouble, Battleship, or big sellers like that, Hasbro just doesn't care.

It wasn't true.
I'm sure they thought it was true when they said it, but life is funny that way sometimes.

C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Marvel:Reinforcements Arrive - Never To Be Released (Pho

I would not mind having that Punisher sculpt. I can't believe we have not seen Hasbro/WOTC reuse the sculpts somehow yet. They already spent the money on developing them.

Looking at the wave, it is an odd grouping of characters. They said it would have been two boosters per wave so 5 figures per booster. Not sure what they were thinking for a break down. maybe the 3 FF figures with two villains. Then Punisher, Beast, & Black Panther with the other two villains. Beast being the only X-men/mutant in the group and no other mutants in the master set really makes him an odd ball.

A few hundred dollars to a sculptor for each figure is chump change to Hasbro. They don't care about wasting that kinda of money.

This Chris Nelson must be tracked down and must be swayed to sell his unreleased Marvelscape to one of us.......

Re: Marvel:Reinforcements Arrive - Never To Be Released (Pho

I doubt he's keen on losing his job and getting sued by Hasbro. If you have enough money, though, I suppose you might have a shot. (I would start with 50 grand, and be prepared to go up from there).

C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Marvel:Reinforcements Arrive - Never To Be Released (Pho

The look of disappointment on someone's face when they look at the expensive cards they just bought and realize that C3G's free cards are better would be classic.

Without giving any specifics, an unspecified number of the C3G cards are remarkably similar to the corresponding Marvel Reinforcement cards.

Re: Marvel:Reinforcements Arrive - Never To Be Released (Pho

I've heard similarly extremely vague comments before, which is an unspecified amount of awesome.

Re: Marvel:Reinforcements Arrive - Never To Be Released (Pho

I keep hearing that too, but I like to believe that the C3G cards that are different, are so because they are better.

Thanks for that Jim. You're the best. Hey, can I come over and play Marvel Scape with you next week?
