It just dawned on me, after over 20 years of Heroclix, we have not once received a Rhodey version of Iron Man

Invincible Iron Man 038 Iron Man is Rhodey. Though it's the Stealth outfit.

Otherwise, yes, a Rhodey in the 80s era outfit is needed.

If the real name wasn't on the card, how could you tell? I don't remember Rhodey's armor being any different from Tony's.

Special interaction with Monica Rambeau.

"Did you know there was a black man in this armor?"
"I knew there was a MAN in there."

Shut DOWN during the first Secret Wars.

I am only aware of the Secret Wars Rhodey, so that is the armor I was referencing.


A Rhodey Iron Man would not have outwit or perplex, which most of the ones with out names still have.

Did Tony ever use the built in skates? If not, that would be a fun node to the Secret Wars, Rhodey Iron Man.

I KNEW THERE WAS A MAN IN THERE: Opposing characters with the Real Name "Monica Rambeau" can use Incapacitate as FREE, but only to target Iron Man.

Targeting: Adjacent
Daughters of the Dragon: Colleen Wing and Misty Knight starts the game on either click #1 or click #6. If they are 40 points, they are KO'd when they cross a red KO line. Otherwise, they are KO'd when the click they chose to start the game on is revealed when taking damage. // If Colleen Wing and Misty Knight are 80 points, once per turn when they attack, after resolutions they may make an attack. Protected: Pulse Wave.
Sonic Cannon: KNOCKBACK. Range 5. // When Colleen Wing and Misty Knight makes a range attack, opposing characters can't use Shape Change.
Heroes for Hire: POWER: Choose an opposing character. If that character is KO'd this turn, score 5 Victory Points. // If Colleen Wing and Misty Knight are 80 points, they instead activate this power as FREE.

This guy might have to become a staple of my Wakanda teams. Sidelines are such a groaner.

I firmly believe the game really started going downhill with the Sideline stuff.
Don't get me wrong, l loved collecting the ID cards, but people even abused them, and then things got really out of control.
There is enough to pay attention to on the map itself.

Special power... my god, I'm on fire!!!

I'm content with a side salad of almost pleased.

Lack of printed defense power is the kick to the nuts I've come to expect. If this was someone else's favorite character it would have like 3 defensive powers - but who cares about Alpha Flight?

It allows me to run her at 70+15 (for motorcycle), giving her super-senses and Charge and not gutting her when I inevitably roll the 1-2.

6 clicks at 70 points, so 11+ points per click. Not as efficient as broken crap - but why would she be 60/65 points?

2 targets and 2 damage is the next shot to the nuts. At least I'm used to it. Yeah, she can target 2 characters for 1 damage... Well it forces you to use BCF - which, as we all know, doesn't work with multi-targeting.

Well she does have a 5 range - WTF?!?! I guess she had a gun in the Hercules series? No version of Snowbird I recall ever blasted stuff. Snowblind was NOT her powers - it was just someone looking at a cover and making stuff up (see IIM) She turns into snowy owl, wolverine, polar bear, sasquatch, whale, human - nope, no 'above average' ranged attacks with them.

Don't get me wrong, it is a decent enough dial to use for this mega-fan and there are things I do like - mainly the pick-a-power, but stuff like range, blank defense-slot, random assignment of powers (I'm rolling 1-2 most of the time anyway) are just a reminder that this game is really made for the cheese-crowd and casual fans can go shove-off (after you spend your money, of course ).

This is my must-get piece. Hopefully I will get a chance to play at a venue sometime in the next month and a half...

Bonus EDIT: I just saw the actual sculpt: Nothing says flying goddess that shape-changes into animals like Crouching 'cannonball'. Nut shot #3. A trifecta.

This is a good attacking Storm. It lacks the nuance and flavor I really want in the character but if I somehow pulled her in a sealed game, I'd definitely keep her.
