Red Skull captained my GenCon team that took me to a Top 16 finish.

He's not a reliable attacker with only a 2 damage and a low range and he's not a reliable support piece since he damages himself when he uses his powers. The damage reducers get wasted if you roll badly when using outwit/perplex/pc and that low defense means he's gonna go down quickly if anybody with high damage gets in his face. By the time he gets mastermind, he's even less of an offensive threat.

Overall, waste of points. With a friggin cosmic cube, he should be a lot more dangerous.

If you play him with Nanobots hes hard to take down.

probably hte worst Red Skull ever THANKS SETH for a GREAT 16 defense THAT IS AWESOME and man that is so comicurrate that i take 1 unavoidable damage on a 1-3 roll for cosmic CUBE give me A BREAK SETH THAT IS RDICILOUS

GIVE US A NEW RED SKULL THIS ONE...................... IS A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


COME THE HECK ON. 100+ points for a MAX of 2 damage, MAX of 17 def on the end of his awful dial, and a PENALTY a 50/50 shot of killing yourself to live just to use perplex, outwit or prob. what a joke. maybe on a roll of 1 this power would have been good but doubtful. what a crock of onion slaps.

He is his own worst enemy in many respects. What good is having all 3 support powers if you run such a serious risk of taking away his best click? Actually, what I like the most about him is the Poison and how it overlaps into Mastermind, something that in the past cost much less points (Whitney Frost) but is no less effective now than ever. I guess if you can pay 51 for Whitney, would you more than double it to add some life and damage reduction? I'm not sure.
I do love how he can go double-or-nothing by PCing his own failed roll, and then having to roll again. It's an act of desperation that makes me laugh!

I once tangled with a Terrax with this guy. Red Skulls power is awesome. If rolling low on the power would ruin Red Skull (and you need to use Perplex or Outwit), then test your luck by using the PC to re-roll. The PC allows you to re-roll the die to avoid damage from the Outwit or Perplex... then afterwards you have to roll to determine if you take damage from using PC. It's pretty fun.

this is now a freaking crazy dial because of the new errata, "and" instead of "or". more power with more chance for it to blow up in your face. if i'm feeling lucky i might play him. with a ton of PC of course.

I don't understand. What's the errata?

very good piece.

under the players guide, " The special power Cosmic Cube begins ―The Red Skull
can use Outwit, Perplex, and Probability Control." he needed that

Terrible figure for the cost. SP seems completely over-costed for the damage it can do to himself. Hopefully the Cap set will give us a good, playable Skull. Sculpt is good except for the Mickey Mouse hands.

He gets a bad rap for the SP penalty, but under further examination, he's very versatile. Team him up with a Hydra Operative or Scientist Supreme to keep him at full health and functional.

Cosmic Cube Red Skull, say hello to your new bff: "Tricky" Dick Fisk!!

I modded mine with a per degaton body. Kept the red skull head and used 75th john stewart sandwich bricks painted red with a cosmic cube on it standing next to him. The cube was made with a micro die from old halo action clix lol. looks sweet, wish the dial was too.

Booo. I will make you spend a lot of points to hurt myself.
