Seperate point cost You can run either a 100 Frost Giant of 300 Utgard
No Ko line just one dial to the next

That's a Sentinel Mark V in the picture, not a Frost Giant. The figure in the picture is in a standing stance where the Frost Giant is almost crouching in the spoiler pic.

That too.

I was probably thinking of the fall-out that occurred in the pages of X-Factor. You're right that the actual fight took place in X-Force.

If you missed the post, the 6th Colossal is a Frost Giant.

Mmm.. I smell an Ultron led Sentinel team in my future...

I just can't get into X-Factor.. I read the original.. the "Government" sponsored team with Havok.. but for some reason I just can't get into the detective agency thing.. just don't particularly care about any of the characters.. plus the Shatterstar/Rictor "romance" just seems stupid..

Is there any relationship between Utgard Loki and Loki Laufeyson (Yellow/Green clad foe of Thor)?

I can see the figure being a colossal, as in its full point mode it represents Utgard-Loki. The 100 point version represents a standard Frost Giant. Though as has been pointed out earlier, they are huge indeed.

I am even more stoked about the colossals!

Would have rather seen a different colossal figure that deserved and needed the dial space and sculpt size and gotten these guys as giants stuffed in regular boosters with two different paint jobs.

Maybe I will change my mind in time, and it looks like a very well-sculpted and painted piece, but I am not thinking right now that if I open this booster that I will be thinking that I got a $24.00 figure for Heroclix.

Artistry only counts for so much. It would have been nice to get a character that is actually important in the comics. One that has a history. One that has been central to stories. A character that you see on the cover a comic that you do not normally read that makes you decide to grab it that month.
Sorry, I do not think that anyone would grab a comic that they do not normally read because the cover shows the character fighting a frost giant.

Generic mooks that Thor beats up in multiples as an aside to the main story are not things that fill me with awe and wonder, and running a 600 point generic frost giant team shouldn't cost $144.00 at MSRP.

Does he still look like this? http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0...ma01_super.jpg

Yeah.. well.. I wanted a Master Mold Colossal.. a generic Sentinel Colossal.. and a generic Sentinel Giant in the boosters..

we don't always get what we want..

huh? me too wants to know where did the stats come from? and if it is true, then I would predict that Elixir will never see the light on the map during the sealed....51 points and 1 damage support meaning that he and his team will be vulnerable to the ranged attacks, RCE, psych blast, and Energy explosion...bye bye Elixir and thanks for 51 points. well at least hes a rookie.

Other then Loki is technically a Frost Giant adopted by Odin.. nope.. just a similar name.. there's no relationship at all between Loki and Utgarde-Loki in Norse Mythology

Elixir has toughness and provides an aoe heal...how is he 'vulnerable' to energy explosion? I also don't see how picking up stealth and regen makes him more vulnerable to ranged attacks in general...

Well, I may be wrong but I haven't heard that this will be the only set featuring super boosters. So theoretically there will be time in the future for other huge peeps to be represented.

Me personally, I am thrilled for the Frost Giant. I love me some Thor and I am super psyched to have some of these guys to throw out on an Asgardian baddie team.
