Continuing this photographic record of figures hefting objects, let’s look at some more from Fear Itself.
Nul [Fear Itself 032] can decently balance an object token on his head and arm as shown. HAMMERTIME HULK SMASH.
____
Future editions of Token Totin’ Thursday will highlight more Fear Itself until it’s all shown.
Have F.U.N. Heroclixin!’
Continuing this photographic record of figures hefting objects, this time starting a multi-week look at figs from the new Wolverine and the X-Men full set. Next up? White King (Wolverine and The X-Men):
His coattails serve to hold the token. Stylish AND practical.
Legion (Wolverine +The X-Men) uses his blue psycho energy to hold his token.

Thursdays for a while will feature pix from Fear Itself, with Tuesdays continuing the coverage of Wolverine +The X-Men.
Continuing this photographic record of figures hefting objects, let’s look at the Jugga’naut, #####:
U know who the #### I am?
Kuurth [Fear Itself 026] can juuuuust barely balance an object token on his head and arm as shown. There might be another hold available, but I didn’t find one in the minute or so I had with someone else’s copy of the piece.

Continuing this photographic record of figures hefting objects, this time starting a multi-week look at figs from the new Wolverine and the X-Men full set. Next up? Cyber (Wolverine and The X-Men 208) .
Under his left toe is an OK hold; not great, but adequate.

Continuing this photographic record of figures hefting objects, this time we look at a quartet of red females in the Fear Itself expansion. Starting with that ginger foe of the Avengers, Titania:
She really can’t do much more than lamely lean the token on her right boob. At least it makes it plain that she’s holding the object and not standing on it.
Things improve once it’s hammertime and she becomes Skirn:
Said hammer makes for a fine grip.
The ginger theme goes even further with the dark-haired but red-skinned Red She-Hulk 006, who sports two holds. First is this tenuous one wedged between her hair and the small of her back:
…but it only works with the older, thinner object tokens. Otherwise, you’ll need to lean her a bit to the right to fit a token under her left arm:
What about when she goes Mighty? Red She-Hulk 020 shows what’s what:
It tucks right under her chin.

And hey! if you’re coming to DragonCon this weekend, look for yours truly in the HeroClix gaming area as I’m a member of the judging staff again this year. I’ll be one of the short black guys with glasses. (I may or may not have blonde hair.)
Continuing this photographic record of figures hefting objects, this time starting a multi-week look at figs from the new Wolverine and the X-Men full set. First up? Colossus (Wolverine and The X-Men 002 and 202) .
Just nudge the big Russian back a bit and the token fits fine under his left wrist.
A surprise is Toad 006, who can get any attack power on his late dial:
The hold is quite bad, as only the newer, thicker objects found in starter sets since 2012 can wedge between his butt and calves…barely.
Another: Shi’ar Guard 206 from the countertop primer set:
He can hold it well as shown.

Thursdays for a while will feature pix from Fear Itself, with Tuesdays continuing the coverage of Wolverine +The X-Men. Tomorrow, read about a F.U.N. Fight.
And Friday? It’s all about DragonCon in Atlanta on Friday.
Continuing this photographic record of figures hefting objects, this time featuring Ms. Marvel from the Fear Itself expansion:
Yup. She’s got it in a decent hold, upright on the base under her axe wrist.
Continuing this photographic record of figures hefting objects, this time starting an overdue look at figs from the Fear Itself event. First up?
“A” is for Asgardian Troll 002 who, at his 25 point cost, supplants Aquaman (Hypertime ) as the least expensive Super Strength non-bystander in the game. The Troll’s hold on the token is a wedge between the club and his right heel.
Concluding the photographic record of clix from the Teen Titans set with Super Strength that can hold the game’s cardboard object tokens. Today, let’s look at this last pair:
Despite being the standard burly brute character, Mammoth (011) can just barely tote his token. One must carefully balance it under his left wrist brace and against his right knee. But Heroclixin’ has not been able to reproduce this hold on any tokens other than its well-worn ones — the new ones just roll right off with the slightest touch. So your mileage may vary.
And this (foot)hold is just going to be better all around:
It’s one of the few that work better with the newer, thicker card stock.
And a final teen titan fig with a grip: Skitter (048)
It’s almost more fitting to ask “how DOESN’T she tote a token?” This intricate sculpt has no issue with a number of solid holds.

OK, that’s more than enough Teen Titans toting tokens. Next week, TTT begins a long-overdue look at Fear Itself. Tomorrow, check out a F.U.N. Force for Heroclixin.’
Continuing the photographic record of clix from the Teen Titans set with Super Strength that can hold the game’s cardboard object tokens. Today, let’s look at this pair:
One can bend Changeling’s forearm a tad to reveal a gap between it and the clear green tiger form for a solid and appealing hold. Meanwhile, his sometime fellow Osiris has a less secure hold under his raised arm.
Over on the Ravagers side of things, the OTHER Beast Boy manages:
It’s actually under his right knee. This is an OK hold, but there’s another, more dynamic one available:
The balance is precarious, but it works as pictured.

Back on Thursday for another teen titan fig with a grip.
