I just want a furry blue classic Beast, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Animated set is pretty much guaranteed to have him, I’d be surprised if we don’t get the full animated team.

Regenesis would be cat version if he is in the set.

Back to the FF and Dice/token pack set up as well. Really begs the question of why they cancelled the DC Rebirth one.

Alternate character cards, eh? I've been waiting for something like that to be implemented.

Only Star Trek and WWE interest me this year.

Gambit seems great to me. He's got great power combos and great traits. I mean, he's not Surtur or anything but if you want to play gambit he should get the job done nicely.

If I am wrong and he is less points but 80 points is too much. Or if I got range or targets wrong.

I'm in for a case on X-Men Animated for sure. I'll cherry pick WWE as I'm not a wrestling fan in the slightest, but I feel like my clix collection would be incomplete without Macho Man and a few others. Regenesis is tricky, as I'm pretty sure I'll just be waiting til a couple months after the event is over to pick up what I want on the secondary for pennies to the dollar of what they'll be going for while the event is active. Fool me once (CWSLOP), never again.

BUT there's actually a new game shop opening up in May in the East Bay Area, where I reside, and I've managed to convince the owner to stock clix, even though it's obviously a more 40k etc type of venue. So maybe a play group will emerge and we can get this event going, but it's a hell of a long shot to expect that by June. At best I'll finally find some folks to play clix with in the corner while the backwards-Deadpool-hat-wearing Warhammer dorks roll 17 dice at once and take 35 minutes between turns all while yelling the most inane Rick and Morty quotes at each other, taking up 90 percent of the table space, and the oxygen, in the room.

Okay so maybe I'm a little frustrated that I haven't had a game since the AI pre-release but all of the local war gaming groups are chugging along just fine.

Wizkids always draws me back with an X-men set.... always..... Otherwise I cherry pick...

I think if you factor in his perplex, stealth and sidestep you get more out of his range.
The side step effectively gives him HSS, and the perplex can up his range... so he has a 12 range swing by himself if he needs it. That's more than gambit deserves. But likely he can use the sidestep to protect himself.
He can running shot 5 for 5 range and sidestep back two, which is decent and if you can't bust his stealth or make up the 7 squares he may as well be on the moon.
Don't get me wrong I'm not saying he's crazy good for 80, but I just see so much versatility in him, and EE with Force blast is delicious.

If these Regenesis characters are going to be dramatically more expensive per figure to obtain, sub-optimal on anything but a Schism-specific team, AND followed immediately by easier-to-get, more broadly useful X-men including several of the exact same characters... ouch. I'm excited to have a proper thematic sealed summer event again, but this format's not looking ideal (especially if whatever the suggested format is hinders your ability to get a theme team in sealed - they mostly made it work for Civil War but that wasn't single-figure boosters). On the upside, the sculpts are all really nice and dynamic.

Nice to finally get a release month and format for Animated X-men. Looks solid, and Sentinels are always welcome.

WWE's still not my thing, but if the dials are fun I might do a sealed tournament for kicks, maybe bust out the Boxing Ring.

What a hype! OMG!!! X-Men animated series and Regenesis look awesome! Those colossals and a Morph!!!... Finally!i just need a Shard and some Morlocks like Analee or Tommy! And this will be just... More perfect that it is right now!!!

Does anyone know who the giant characters with swords are? Don't recognise them from the series

Ronda Rousey

According to DrmngCelestial and Jarosa earlier in the thread (posts 40 and 49) , the two on the right are (definitely) Astral Shadow King and (maybe) Astral Professor X.

Hope this helps (I had to ask, too).

The clear figure is actually a colossal construct of Iceman from the Wolverine and the X-Men comic, unless Xavier also used the exact same form in the animated series.

Best picture I can find of Iceman’s construct.
