I can wait for MarvelScape, I just don't want too. I will save my money for MS rather than buy DC Battleleague and use it as a substitute.

I got all excited when I read that the packages become buildings. Then I saw one. I was envisioning something akin to Megablocks, what I see is a fracking cereal box!

The sculpts are far cooler than Attacktix, but this is another blowoff game. I'm sure I'll get roped into playing it at lease once with my son when he sees it in WalMart.

Welcome to the boards, Hobo King!

On behalf of our Star Wars smileying and Marvelscape anticipating community I extend to you a laurel and a hearty handshake.

I wish DC would just give up and sell the rights to Hasbro so we could have some DC Heroscape. Sigh....

I don't like the looks of this game. I'm sure the kids will love it, but it looks too much like Attacktix for my tastes.

Well, Mattel's got the DC license locked up really good between Justice League Unlimited, various movie tie-ins, The Batman animated line, and the 6" DC Superheroes line that's going absolutely nowhere fast. They're not giving one of their biggest cash cows up without a fight. A shame, really. We'll have to look to another license to be 'Scape's second coup.

I just wish they'd stop making Batman figures. A few years ago they released a special, commemorative 100th Batman figure. That means they've released the same guy as a new toy 100 times. The trend hasn't slowed down a bit and looks worse than ever lately.

If I read the link correct, I will avoid this game. The problem is the weapons. I remember as a kid having weapons that fired, but after a while, the spring would become weak and no longer fire. This is the same reason I have avoided the Attack-Tix game.

I agree, they games that have such mechanical parts wont really last as long. The way most of us purchase games leads to thoughts of just waisting a lot of money.
