I hope we get another couple of shots at Critical Mass LEs before they start offering Ultimates specials. I wasn't able to make many tourneys the first three months of the year, and only have 6-7 from that expansion.

Uhhh, I'm not sure if I'm behind on things, but I just looked at the LE's list for UL and saw some LE's I've never seen before (Shade, Deadshot, Two-Face, Brainiac 5, etc.). Are these new and therefore the "top secret" LE's, or am I just behind?

These LEs rock. They're not just slight (if any) variations on the REV characters like some of the recent sets. Each of these LEs is hot and I'll try and collect each and every one of them (tournies, trades, ebay, or otherwise).

Great job, WizKids! Thanks!

Trigon's Daughter?...Does that means we may be seeing a Not-so-limited-edition Big Fig Trigon himself? You heard it here first folks!!

"Part Time Soothersayer!!"

Gah, Querl Dox is useless. Leadership? This version of Brainy has never led anybody. Exploit Weakness? This figure should never get into close combat, especially with his weak attack value. Defend with a lousy DV (especially since you'll want to push past that lousy first click with Leadership)? Bah.

And I think Jason Burr is an odd choice for a name for a Kobra fanatic, considering he was, like, Kobra's arch-enemy.

... and a Killer #### LE makes 8. I thought I had forgotten
someone.

So I think the top secret LE's will be amongst these guy and maybe just as a big tease some Ultimate Characters.

Defend is actually the only thing defendable, no pun intended, about this Querl Dox LE. A higher defense would have been nice, but none of the other Legionnaires have a 16 defense. Most of the Bat-Villains don't have a 16, no generics have a 16, and there's a slew of notable Unleashed characters (Black Adam, Supergirl, The General) who peak at 15 DV. He's also the cheapest flyer in the game with Defend, and as a wildcard, that should be handy on a team with R Green Lantern (John Stewart).

Truth be told, this figure would have been better off if Defend was the ONLY power they gave it, compared to these other ones. As Simon said, Leadership and EW on Brainiac 5 are bunk. You have to go back to the swinging '60s to find Brainy as a Legion leader. I'm all but sure that the designers are using the rebooted versions only as their template.

Meanwhile, the designers continue to deny Brainy the Barrier power he deserves. I suppose Incap is here to represent Brainy's force field, but it's a poor representation.

Hey, been hearing another rumor, possibly exaggerating....that the TOP SECRET LEs - one of them is named Kurt Wagner ----- AKA NightCrawler!!! so fiction or non-fiction? guess we have to wait and find out!

The "Top Secret" are Marvel Ultimates.

There are only going to be 20 LE's - this seems obvious since the Shazam LE is # 221. So none of those figures listed above get an LE.

And today's news makes it obvious that the "top secret" LE's for June were in fact from the Ultimates set.

So that's all wrapped up nice and tidy... yay.
