Swordsman and hydroman could make cool support additions to sydicate or avengers themes.

Entangle looks sweet i love it that relatively useless powers are being made very usefully annoying.

Wloverine looks like a cool fun peice but FF is still far better competative peice

Wow... that Wolverine is AWSOME!

I NEED to get me it...

I was so disappointed when Wolvie was one of the 3 Uniques I'm missing from Fantastic Forces (other 2 are Prof. Xavier and Mad Thinker)


Hmmmm, they both have their pros...

But I love the new sculpt...

The newer on is 23 points more, same amount of Charge... 2 less clicks of BCF, no 3 clicks of Toughness, but still has the last 3 clicks of Regen plus he has one more click of life...

Other Wolvie went 12-11-11-10-10-9-8 for ATK
crazy consistency and extremely high values...
New one is 10-9-9-8-7-8-9-10
which makes his last 2 clicks worth it... but Iono if the lower attacks values plus 23 points is all worth using the newer one...

Old Wolvie had 14 slots with no powers... 14/28 slots were empty...
New Wolvie has 6 empty slots... 6/32
So... he does have more powers...

Flurry + Blades = dangerous...

New one has higher Def overall...
only two slots of 2 ATK, while the other one had all 2 ATK (which didn't really hurt seeing as how he had 5/7 clicks of Blades...)

The new one has barely any flaws...
4 clicks of Battle Fury (is this really a flaw?)
One click has 6 Speed with Charge >_<'
And lower attack values for a higher cost...

but hey, that Flurry/Blades/Willpower click is really nice...

I believe his pros greatly outweigh his cons...

New Wolvie all the way!

94 points might be a lot, but I really think he's worth it... way more so than Scarlet Spider

I'd love to see like this Wolvie... maybe the set won't be such a disappointment afterall...

If only Vet Hydroman had a team ability... he's the only one that is useful for more than just tying up figs...

Swordsman doesn't have much BCF, and where did his range come from?
He could use a little work... but he is definately cheap for his work...

Entangle is pretty cool... I like it...

This set has its pros and cons...
hopefully we'll see more pros than cons...

Peace...

New Wolverine is tied with FF Wolvie as my favorite Wolvies thus far. I feel the new one is by far the most comic accurate, particularly to the Wolverine the sculpt is based on.

Swordman? Well, he's pretty efficent. I'm a huge theme team player so I'd most likely only play the E on occasion and only if I happen to need to fill points. He will probably show up on some T-bolts theme teams as a proxy for the new Swordsman.

Hydroman? The E is a perfect replacement for LE Frank S. (Constrictor) in my SS tank team. He's cheaper, lends a better Defense and is entirely more useful. Definately going to get plenty of play. I probably won't play the R or V often, if ever, however.

The card is great for some of my favorite figures from the last few sets and may help Mr. Fantastic some. Clayface... is... wonderful.

Amazing Wolverine.

I like the Swordsman's powers.

Not impressed with the HydroMan sculpt, or the dial.

I am a big wolvie fan and I ussually have a wolvie heroclix fun!He is pricey and in order to construct a team he must be your first choice of your options if you want to play him.I am furious that wizkids decided to make him a unique,now I am certain that the wolverine(Brown) I liked most will never be mine.Bye,bye wolverine it was nice seeing you with a classic costume.Too bad I am so unlucky with the uniques,the only unique I have ever manage to find in booster was the black spidey back from Infinity challenge,since then the uniques I llike are just a dream.So I can now cry for my wolvie loss........

the uniques are more common now since AW, so he will be cheaper to get even IF you don't get him out of a booster.

the E Hydroman is the only usefull variant and he still goes down to quick for my taste, where is that upswing in stats in the end ??
he almost looks like a JonL fig...

although I do like that 17 defend for my SS6, barrier is tricky but with his little range that could be very handy.

between him and the Sandman there's going to be a whole lot of figs going to get tied up with plasticity !!
If I get one Entangled It's more likely to go on Sandman though !
He only has 1 click where plasticity and Super senses overlap, BUT will be a pain to take out and his sculpt is WAY cooler.

...Wolverine seems really undercosted. A feckin steal even. Not sure he needed the climb in attack at the end - who isn't going to put Auto Reg on him? I'd also like one that topped out at an even 100pts.

blades and exploit weakness
-nuff said

Remember that U Wlverine will probably be more common than V Spider-Man or V Mach-IV, so don't cry too much about him being a Unique. I suspect we'll see a new REV Wolverine within aset or two, most likely wearing his Astonishing X-Men costume.

E Hydro-Man is the bomb. He is the bomb dot com. That Defend really sticks out.

I love Hydroman. I think this is the first Villain with defend and a good defense. I will have to put the Exp on several of my teams.

With entangle and the new shape change rules, CD Clayface just became a god!

He has a dial just about full of plasticity and shape change!

I agree with Col Orange, U Wolvie seems a tad undercosted but I guess he is the best there is at what he does!

A villain with Defend? What's next? A Cassie Batgirl that reflects the character? Weirder things have happened!

Whats with the Plascticy on vet hydroman and then charge. It should be the other way around to be usefull. You charge in make the attack and the opposing figure has to stick around. With that being said the E is the only one really worth fielding.

Wolvie. Didn't like him at first glance (and it was just a glance). Second Look and I almost lost it. He really is Awsome.

I never really understood the appeal for Plasticity.

Most of the fig you want to tie up can't be affected by the power due to Leap Climb, Phasing, another Plasticity fig and especially Hypersonic Speed.

Even if you do tie up Domino or Black Panther for eg: a flyer can just pick him/her up and there is no break away roll.

Plus Giants and Big figs are immune (and so is Galactus, go figure).

So overall it is a power I tend to avoid since it rarely comes into play.

All that being said I do understand why Hydro man has it and I am really looking forward to doing the Frightful Four where Klaw can copy his TA and Titania's new and improved MOE.

In unrestricted games Super Skrull with Entangle is going to be an ubber bastid! Interesting Wolverine. Would be nice to see one out of the THOUSANDS of Wolverines they produce to have BCF his full dial. And I can't figure out why a guy with a sword, aptly named Swordsman, DOESN'T have BCF until his V version. Interesting piece, will be fun to play with Hawkeye.
