Stryfe, I would almost rather no Stryfe then the one they are giving us with this set.

Rogue/Gambit are ugly has sin. NECA should be embarrased to produce something of such poor quality.

Cable/Deadpool are amazing. I had figured to sell this duo as soon as I got it but it looks like a keeper now that I have seen the dial.

Stryfe, seriously? What a waste.

Psylocke looks great but a little boring.

Attack - Psycho Blast: Psylocke can use Penetrating/Psychic Blast as if she had a range of 6
Damage - Psychic Knife: Psylocke can use Blades/Claws/Fangs and Exploit Weakness. When she rolls a D6 for Blades/Claws/Fangs, on a result of 1 or 2, give her target an action token in addition to the normal effects

well that's great

choose a theme

stick to it

hope they will do that every time (sticking to their theme, minus one or two figs, and not systematically including "obligatory" "iconic" characters in a set except if they fit the theme of course)

I would immediately push that Psylocke off her first click. I mean, I'd do it with a TK so it's useful, but still. Her second click is brutal.

really agree

no x-men ta means he IS useless to my eyes

Funny how the least X-men theme is the most desired...Take that Sentinels and Apoc

I'm really surprised there aren't more spoilers up. Rep to whoever posts Pyro, Juggs and Storm first.

C&D look amazing. Play wise they look very erratic.

If the dice roll right you could Phase in 10 squares, lower opponent's defense, and then DUO attack/shoot for another 8 squares, for a possible 7 damage. That's just - wow.

If the dice roll poorly you could Phase in, raise defenses, and end up a sitting duck susceptible to Outwit and having to think hard about pushing. 247 is a lot of points for no Outwit protection and no Indomitable.

The end dial is more of the same. Choose Cable and try to finish off opponents with awesome powers and stats (but with 4 clicks of life left)? Or Choose Deadpool to attempt to Regen 4 clicks of life back, and then be stuck with a weaker end-dial when you get smacked down again?

Anyway, I hope I pull them.

After reading the abilities again, that cable deadpool is just crazy. Phasing teleport running duo shot?!?!? not to mention the chance of reducing everyone's def by 1 when doing so.

Or the first trio:

Hal / Kyle / Spidey

I swear we have had 22 versions of Hal and Kyle in the last three sets.

Trait - Final Kiss: Once per game on your turn, as a free action you may choose that Gambit/Rogue can't use the duo attack ability or special powers for the rest of the game. If you do, heal Gambit/Rogue 2 clicks and remove all action tokens from them.
Attack - Sugah and Spice: Gambit/rogue can use Force Blast and Penetrating/Psychic Blast. When they use either one, after actions resolve they may use it again as a free action, if they take 1 unavoidable damage after that resolves.
Damage - Unknown can't see back of card

Psylocke looks crazy good. does she have a Unique ring? If not, she might be one of those "Same Character x 4" teams we've seen in the past with Batman and Cap.

Psylocke rules. Her Psychic Knife is awesome, just the way I wanted her. Plus: she's got the X-Factor keyword so it's not so painful if I miss the LE...
