Thanks to those at GAMA and those who are being relayed information and providing it here. Nothing better than the slow leak of exciting new figures and sets!

Ah, but he didn't say "different"! Nor did he say "the colossals". They're clearly people who just wanted 6 colossals. Who are thee to question?
The only thing I would say is that their maths is really shaky. It's quite evident that three cases would equate to 6 colossals. No need to assume. Although, after the Dormammu/Uatu powerbomb dropped on us, they're having the last laugh.

Nah. What's been on my mind is... How come everyone is worried about a deluge of product in 2012; when has NECA released a set on time?
These are digital representations...they're not ALL in production yet (as far as I am aware)... I can draw you a picture of a new swingset for the kids...ask them how long it will be before I actually get it built.
And like others...I'm kind of wondering why these Hulk pieces weren't in IH. I counted three new Hulks in the slideshow. All with really decent (hopefully not "mini") sculpts.
I'm not a HUGE Marvel or Batman fan so 2012 might be a singles era for me for a few sets. I'll pick up the Justice League, Chaos War, and both 10th Anniversary sets for sure. The previews of the Superman sculpts look righteous!

The utility belt object, with all the little objects to go in it. Has WK procured the license for the most important utility belt special object, the Hostess Fruit Pies?

Only you said "different". But it would guarantee them six options for trade.
i wonder what kind of effects that will have on their trade value
i'm getting 2 cases, so if there are only 5 unique super boosters i guess i'll pick up 1 additional super booster.. may wait to see what i pull though out of the 2 cases.
I'll have to dig through that photo album later and see if anything was missed, too. Muncho had some stuff that wasn't in the slideshow. We got to look at a few sculpts in person, such as a new Taskmaster, in the original costume, Crystal of the Inhumans and a few really nicely detailed Joker thugs from the movie sets.
Okay, now my heart has skipped a beat. Now I can enjoy myself as much as the rest of you. Rep to you bluesummers!
Dormammu and Uatu are packed together. This was said at one of the presentations, but not at all of them.
So when Muncho said they would be packed with something to off-set the weight, he was being funny. The 'thing' they are packed with is each other. There are only 5 Super Booster variations.
This is terrific news! Now I know which one I want!
Thanks and Rep'd.

Hey, now! Don't you go contradicting me! I informed everyone that the last guy to say this was joking because of his smiley. Who are you gonna trust, me? Or people who were actually at GAMA and talked to WK employees? I think the question answers itself really.
Seriously, though, that is rather good news from my frame of mind. Fewer SBs to buy to get an entire set.

Yes, but in which release is it? I know everyone is assuming it's the "new team" mentioned for Streets of Gotham, but I like having these things nailed down solid.

Well next time don't put a smiley on it! Trying to make me look foolish. I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP WITH THAT!

Interesting that the team packs are included in the bricks, but not entirely unexpected.

But it would be very, very cool Wizkids pulls off something as unexpected as keeping an extra colossal or two under wraps right up until release day.
Maybe he meant that they were more colossal! : - )

Again more info :P, I have it on good word that the figure will "Wow" us and make us say "why didnt I think of that!".
But I did think of that! I totally thought of it. You'll see!

I've gotten contradictory reports on whether it's coming out on the 4th or the 11th. Apparently, Alliance is sending different messages in different ways. I'm waiting for someone who knows to provide clarity on this.

Word has been consistent that there are no separate superbooster orders. You're welcome to split them from bricks and sell them (just like bricks can be broken up to sell individual boosters), but you can't order them beyond the brick order.

Holy eff this is awesome news. I really wanted Galactus and the Watcher, and Dormammu I would keep if I pulled, so this is such great news for me.
