I'm happy to see an extremely durable, modern version of Cliff, but why is he 130 points instead of 125?! Those 5 points make the original Doom Patrol from this set (with Rita at her 50-point dial) come out to... 305 points. Seriously?!

Agreed with AlaskanX. A 100-pt or 75-point starting line would have been nice, too (maybe 100 on click 3, or 75 on click 4). 130 ends up a massively inconvenient point cost, math-wise.

All the others in the set are multiples of 25, even his own lower point value and both starting lines of Elasti-Girl. It's doubly painful because it also borks things over for 400 and 500 point teams because of that stray 5 points ;-; Leaving off the chief and fitting in a resource or something seems...wrong. But then, so does playing Robotman at 50 instead of 130 for similar reasons. It's not even like he needs those points so he can take tokens off the next highest-member...Elasti-girl is 100, the others are 75 or below. BANANA BALLZ, it's not even justified on those grounds even if you reach all the way back for Negative Woman, who is 117. Also, the sculpt isn't bad, but the digital preview just looks soooooo much better. *Lesigh* SMH right now, but SML too. Because MAN is he effective.

Ok folks, I've figured out how to fix this: we need a Doom Patrol ATA. Cost 6 points, keyword Doom Patrol (of course), call it "original Doom Patrol" or "Doom Patrol (Silver Age)" or something. Text: "When this character uses the Weird Resurrection trait, decrease the result of the 2d6 roll by 1 for each other friendly character using this team ability (minimum result 1). When another friendly character using this team ability is turned to a K.O. click by using the Weird Resurrection trait, choose one of this character's combat values and increase it by +1 for the rest of the game."

Throw that on Larry, Rita, Niles, and this guy at 50 (maybe his better point cost anyway?), you've got 299 neat. Add the Batman 66 Surfboard, fill out that extra point. Future Nationals winners, please take note! ;-D
