So by now most of you who follow Heroclix know that in July, Wizkids will release the Marvel Heroclix: Superior Foes of Spider-Man, but what you may not know is that today Wizkids reveal the first Marvel Heroclix set of 2017! Are you ready?!?
Marvel Heroclix: Deadpool and X-Force! Yep. Deadpool is getting another set and his friends (and enemies!) are coming with em'. The set breaks down as follows: 19 Common, 19 Uncommon, 19 Rare, 12 Super Rare, 8 Chase, and 1 Ultra-Chase. Oh man, another Ultra-Chase, let's watch the Forums erupt!
As far as I know only three characters have been announced for the set: Wolverine, Doop, and Wizkid. Team themes include: X-Statis, Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, and the Mercs for Money. Wizkids will release a Fast Forces Pack which will include the following six figures with new dials: Deadpool, Wolverine, Fantomex, Psylocke, Cable, and Domino. The MSRP for the Fast Forces Pack is $16.99.
A Dice and Token Pack will include: 2 custom dice with the Deadpool icon and six action tokens that feature the Merc with a Mouth. MSRP is $9.99.
A Release Day OP Kit is also scheduled for early next year.
Now that we've got that outta the way! In July, Wizkids will release Marvel Heroclix: Superior Foes of Spider-Man. As far as I know there are only three characters that have been revealed for the set so far.
Edit: Here's some images of the Dice & Token Pack and the Sealed Booster Brick
Spider-Man #001
So far no picture yet, he's a Common figure so he'll be easy to pull for people who love the Wall-Crawler. He comes in at 70 points, has the Spider-Man TA, has no range, and only 1 lightning bolt. For his first two clixs of life (out of 6 total) he has the powers Charge, Super Strength, and a Special Defense Power (MY SPIDER-SENSE IS GOING OFF LIKE CRAZY: Spider-Man can
use Super Senses. When he does, increase the result of his roll by 1
for every 100 points of the attacking character's cost.). He also has Willpower. On Spider-Man third and fourth clix he has Flurry and Super Senses. On Spidey's fifth clix he has Sidestep, he also gets his Special Defense Power (MY SPIDER-SENSE IS GOING OFF LIKE CRAZY: Spider-Man can
use Super Senses. When he does, increase the result of his roll by 1
for every 100 points of the attacking character's cost.), he also has Exploit Weekness. On his last clix he has Sidestep, Super Senses, and Exploit Weakness.
He has Improved Movement: Ignores Elevated Terrain and Spider-Man also has a Special Trait CALL IN HELP FROM THE SPIDER-VERSE!: Once per turn for
all characters with this trait, when Spider-Man hits an opposing
character, after actions resolve you may roll a d6 that can't be
rerolled. 3 - 6: Place another friendly character with the Spider-Man
Family keyword adjacent to this character.
Spider-Man has the following keywords: Avengers, Scientist, Spider-Man Family
Real Name: Peter Parker
Black Cat #047
Once again no picture has been posted on the internet yet. Black Cat is a Rare figure coming in at 50 points, she has the Spider-Man TA, she has 0 range and only 1 lightning bolt. So Black Cat has all the same powers all the way down her dial. Black Cat has only four clixs of life. She has Stealth, Combat Reflexes and a Special Damage Power JUST LUCKY, I GUESS: Once per turn, when Black Cat makes an attack or is the target of an attack, she may reroll one of the dice of the attack roll.
Black Cat has Improved Movement: Ignores Elevated Terrain and also has a Special Trait I'LL JUST TAKE THAT, THANKS: When Black Cat hits with
an attack, you may choose that it deals no damage. If you do, you may
choose an item equipped to that character that was an object and equip
it to Black Cat.
Black Cat has the following keywords: Marvel Diva, Marvel Knights, Spider-Man Family
Real Name: Felicia Hardy
Spider-Gwen #052
Third time is the charm with no picture! Spider-Gwen is a Super Rare figure at 95 points, she has the Spider-Man TA, she also has 4 range with 2 lightning bolts. Spider-Gwen also has Indomitable on her dial. For her first two clixs of life (out of 6!) she has Charge, Super Strength, and Combat Reflexes, on her third and fourth clix she has Running Shot, Incapacitate, and Energy Shield/Deflection, on her fifth clix she has Flurry and Combat Relexes and on her last clix she has Flurry, Probability Control and a Special Defense Power DEAD IN EVERY UNIVERSE BUT THIS ONE: Once per game at the beginning of your turn, turn Spider-Gwen's dial to click #1. This can't be countered.
Spider-Gwen has Improved Movement: Ignores Elevated Terrain, Ignores Hindering Terrain. Spider-Gwen has three Special Powers MISSED ME! MISSED ME! NOW YOU GOTTA KISS...DEEZ!: Spider-Gwen can use Super Senses and can evade attacks made by characters using Precision Strike. CALL IN HELP FROM THE SPIDER-VERSE!: Once per turn for
all characters with this trait, when Spider-Gwen hits an opposing
character, after actions resolve you may roll a d6 that can't be
rerolled. 3-6: Place another friendly character with the Spider-Man
Family keyword adjacent to this character. SPIDER'S WEB: When Spider-Gwen hits, after actions
resolve you may attach her Web marker to a hit target, removing it from
anywhere else. That character with the Web marker can't move without
breaking away and can't automatically break away. Other characters don't
have to break away from that character. When that character
successfully breaks away, remove the Web marker.
Spider-Gwen has the following keywords: Celebrity, Spider-Man Family
Real Name: Gwen Stacey
