Welcome back. We took a little break after all that counting down of last year’s Best and Worst and Fave figs.
Heroclixin’ is now looking ahead in this new occasional feature, where we share what upcoming HeroClix events, figures and changes we’re anticipating (or dreading).
First up is Trinity War, the primer of which has fallen into our hands already
Heroclixin’s love for Atlantis figures is well documented. So we’re looking forward to a flood of pieces: a new Aquaman and Mera, and a pair of generics: Atlantean and the monstrous Trench. Look for a F.U.N. Focus soon, now that the main set’s versions and additional Atlantis villain figs Sea King and Ocean Master have also been revealed.
Other figs we’re wanting are Parademon (to go with Darkseid), Green Arrow (to join our collection of archers) and Lex Luthor (to at last run that team of all Lex Luthors). Similarly, we look forward to trying a force of wall-to-wall Vic Stones — better known as Cyborg.
Lower on the Heroclixin’ wish list are the Crime Syndicate pieces. We’ll try to get them all, but we can take our sweet time doing it.
But the MOST exciting piece for us is a remake, because there was this Jimi Hendrix-inspired team of FOXEY LADIES we wanted to run:
- Vixen (Streets of Gotham 028) 74
- Ghost Fox Killer 68
- Crimson Fox 44
- Vet Vixen (Collateral Damage) 44
- Exp Vixen (Collateral Damage) 38
- Rookie Vixen (Collateral Damage) 33
…that came out to 301 dang points.
I’m looking forward to all of the Justice League Dark pieces! Can’t wait to run them as a team that actually works well together
Heroclixin’ isn’t great fans of the JLD, but we’re glad for their fans and are sure we’ll find some F.U.N. in every one of those pieces. I’m hoping to add Constantine to my unofficial “trench coat brigade” theme — he IS the one who coined the term, after all!
Oooo — and it’ll be great to try an updated version of Seven Soldiers with the new Frankenstein and Zatanna!
We take it back; we really are looking forward to new Justice League Dark figs!
