Next up is the 2016 Wizkids plans. Should be a ton of new info over the next hour.

You might be in the minority, but you're not alone. I need an Osborne Iron Patriot (the first one is terrible). I won't use a captain iron man guy.

That piece is a prize

Hope that works

I hope this means that BRs will be a real thing in WES

Technically, no judge is needed but most have them, even small venues.....

If they didn't have them for the Ant-Man or Battle Royal weekend events, I'm not holding my breath for them during Civil War.

*EDIT* Well, will wonders never cease! Hallelujah!

So far in the state of the union:

Turtles dicemasters will be a 92 dice box set similar to how Quarriors was released. It is designed as a new concept to get folks who don't like to buy boosters to start and what to play out of the box.

Clix turtle starter will have the old rule book and PAC.

Battle royale will now be in the WES for reporting in time for civil war.

I dug the WoS one, but agreed. No interest if it isn't Norman.

I'm the other Bill Foster fan, based on what sounds like the same comics. Through several story arcs in the old Marvel Two-in-One comic, (most notably, but not exclusively, the original Project Pegasus storyline), Bill Foster became a good friend of Benjamin J. Grimm, the Thing. Bill Foster appeared as many times in that series as heroes who were much more popular, as the writers and editors of the time crafted and nourished that friendship.

In the mid-70s to early 80s, when Marvel Two-in-One was being published, those team-up magazines functioned as monthly tours to different corners of the Marvel Universe in the day, with the implied challenge of connecting the main hero, in this case The Thing, with some other hero for a new adventure. They bobbed back and forth between the obvious, popular heroes to the fresh new faces on the rise, down to the truly obscure.

My point in listing all these was to support my point that Bill Foster, in the length of that series was being groomed to be not just one of the folks that showed up ever so often, like Daredevil or Spider-Man, but someone who was almost a recurring character in the series. While he wasn't family, like the Human Torch, who with the rest of the FF, appeared regularly during story set-ups, Bill kept coming back, even when he wasn't the titled guest star, as one of The Thing's go-to buddies.

With that in mind, I'm thrilled to get a new clix version of him. Like Ignatz said earlier, I need a new one for my Project Pegasus teams.

Interesting. Are the tin and the box the same thing, aside from the packaging?

/facepalm I wish this surprised me more than it disappoints me. Still, better than none at all, I guess.

Good, about time.

State of the Game and Wizkids isn't talking about issues with Print'n'Play, the new Rulebook and PAC?

You could also just be happy that they're being made at all, regardless of the set they're in.
