Poll: Most Popular Unannounced Characters (for 2022)

[Lord Pyre]

Plus it's fun. You just play games with secret, unreleased units and tell us what you think. My first few tests were pretty crappy, so don't worry about that, you learn quick what to look for.

[Yodaking]

Yeah, my first play test was with Deadshot and I advocated for 150 points (it was a public design so I could be more engaged with the process), since then I've used Deadshot many times and thought he should be 160..... Live and learn, strive to do better in the future, that's all anyone can do. You don't have to be perfect to play test for us, just willing.

[Ronin]

Testing is something I didn't leap to at first either... think I was hanging around for like a year before I saw Angel in the playtesting thread and couldn't resist a sign-up. It can be super-rewarding, though, and you don't need to be exceptional at the game or anything. I'm not that great a player myself.

As for some votes here....

Arcade and Circe are both nice pulls.

Ooh, Arcade is a good one I forget about.

Off the top of my head (sorry if some of these have already been done--I'm out of touch these days)

• Flashpoint Flash
• Ego the Living Planet and his Antibodies (Don't tell me it can't be done; my group already did it ... like Galactus, we just think of him as an abstract representation)
• Eternals (Makkari, Ikaris, Sersi, etc.)
• Batman (Frank Miller)
• Green Lantern (Jessica Cruz & Simon Baz)
• Elder Predators
• Xenomorphs (Queen, King, Draft Egg DOs)
• The Watcher
• Shuma-Gorath
• Fin Fang Foom
• Phoenixbuster
• Brainiac Ship
• Thor on Chariot
• Ymir
• Giganto (Mole Monster)

Eternals are so cool. Just waiting on that movie to come out and convince everyone else.

Also a big fan of Jessica Cruz. One of my favorite new DC characters.

I'm bias...but I agree on both counts. *Crossing fingers* that the Eternals movie will be good. If not I can always go back to Jack Kirby and Neil Gaiman.

For Ego, you just need a figure of the Hoff.

For ours, I sculpted it out of foam, paper towels, water, and glue (it turned out alright--I mean I typically compare to Heroclix) -- the one issue was that we had to put it on a 3-hex base and it probably could have benefitted from something slightly bigger. It was fun to play with ... Ego (shifting b/wn planet form and prime form) and some Antibodies vs Galactus and Thor as a Herald, iirc.

Ego mod tutorial;
1) Acquire an 8-month pregnant woman
2) Use body paint to paint her stomach purple
3) Apply curly mustache to her stomach
4) Have her stand next to your battlefield
5) Actually let her sit, she’s pregnant
6) Avoid questions about why you’re using her as a “living planet”

Here's the only pic I have on hand of the Ego we used:
