From WizKidsGames.com:

On Saturday, October 28, 2006 some lucky HeroClix Supernova pre-release players worldwide discovered a Halloween surprise. What caused the excitement was a polybagged HeroClix piece with a compatible HorrorClix monster card in their sealed Supernova boosters. There has been a lot of discussion on the forums about these pieces but we wanted to clarify a few things.

1 : Marvel HeroClix Supernova has indeed been invaded by 4 Marvel Zombies; Colonel America, Spider-Man, Hulk and Wolverine.

2 : These figures are not just part of the Supernova pre-release but are in fact inserted randomly throughout the Nov. 15, 2006 release of Supernova. Consumers will find them in Supernova boosters at a frequency of around 1 in 100 boosters.

3 : If you aren’t lucky enough to get one, WizKids is planning on releasing a Marvel Zombies product in 2007 for the HeroClix 5th Anniversary. We will NOT be reprinting these original 4 Marvel Zombies.

4 : On top of the Marvel Zombies, the Supernova pre-releases were big successes with high point powerhouses like Thanos and the Silver Surfer being the “stars” of the show.

More information will be coming soon. Thank you for your interest and support of Marvel HeroClix!




In other Supernova related news (and tangent to Marvel Zombies), members attending the Supernova Pre-Release flee to the rescue to report their Supernova goodness. In the following thread, you will find full dial spoilers (except for LE's and currently still missing Marvel Zombie Hulk stats). A big thank you to all members helping us out to create this list. If you don't want to know the spoilers, then DO NOT click the following link.

Very interesting, I really want a wolverine, I would probablly trade or sell any of the other ones if I get lucky.

A guy I played @ Mansfield pulled the Wolverine. The sculpt shows Wolverine with one arm after he tried to slash Silver Surfer in MZ # 3. Even I want one & I'm not big on going after the big dollar stuff unless I really have to.

I just want to point out like I did in the other thread that the article states that there will be a Marvel Zombies product in '07, not neccessarily a Collector Set. A lot of people have already started to assume that it will be a Collector set in the other thread about this, but we don't know yet what it is, it could be an Icons or even a regular sized expansion for all we know. So until we do know what it is, you might want to hold off on paying huge amounts of money for the 4 zombies in Supernova for awhile, as we could still end up getting new versions of them next year.

The one I want the most would be Colonel America. It definately would be fun to play a Scenerio with Zombies.

Did you miss this part, Ncrawler?:

"We will NOT be reprinting these original 4 Marvel Zombies."


So if someone wants the original 4 to go along with whatever comes out in 2007, they will still want to chase after Colonel America & Co.

By the way how many points do all 4 come to?

So there will be a Zombies something. It could be anything. Heck, they could put in chase Zombies for the next set with the Fantastic Four.
Ideally, it'll be a collector's set with some new-dialed zombies of the current release. If I had to guess, they won't make any sort of official announcement until after they think they can spike the sales on the current run of Supernova.
Honestly, what sells a set is by it being a good set, not chase figures.
Mage Knight really liked adding in those chase figures, but other actions ate away at the player base, and the chase figures don't really relate to sales. It'd be nice if WizKids/Topps actually focused on improving its own sales figures instead of improving the secondary market's figures.

245 -- Colonel America is 55, Spider-Man is 40, Hulk is 100 & Wolverine is 50.

Here's where I got the point cost info from:

They might put the four characters in the "product", but maybe not the exact dials.

I have a feeling they will make a second Horror Clix set featuring the Marvel Zombies. This will increase the sales for the older Horror clix and they could still put non Marvel horror figures in the set.

Why was this thread made when there already was one with the same info?

Congratualtions Wizkids !!!!

Even though I'll probably never see any of these figures I am really excited for those of you who do pull one.

I never cared about the masterpiece figures b/c of the insane rarity of those. These are a little more attainable and bring about some good fun.

Thanks Wizkids for such a good idea

just to prevent the lynching that may occur if you don't get these 4 zombies here is what M Tuttle said in the WK forums

I will kill anyone who pulls one and take it from them. Even if it's me.
