Still waiting for the Cosmic Powered Spider-Man and a Wolverine, Hulk, and Ghost Rider with the FF TA.

Okay, I got through 3 sentences before this became one giant blurb in my head.

RELAX!

You're not wrong you know.....WK isn't infalliable, but to get angry over reprints or missing a character's correct representation can be handled much better than a rant.

Think : I'd say 80% of the reprints out there are MUCH better than their original counterparts. I'd be for a WHOLE SET of reprints if they play well and are cool.

It's all good, but try to structure what you're saying with teh following:

1) PARAGRAPHS
2) LESS ANGER
3) MORE OPTIMISM AND POLITENESS

I promise you'll find a better listening audience.

There. If you guys insist on feeding the troll, you should at least be able to understand him.

Thanks to the Hippie, I read through the original post.

Sure, we could use another Indy set with the characters you mentioned. Is that all you were trying to get at?

Do I have anything against Wizkids remaking characters in new or different ways? Not at all. I'd be perfectly fine with 100 different versions of Spider-Man. Each piece has a uniqueness to it that can be exploited in different situations and often reflects a character at a different point in it's career. That is why this is a game based on customization and strategy.

Other than that I wouldn't mind seeing some clix from other sources, I don't agree with the rest of your arguement.

tl;dr


filler

I'm not trying to be snarky, but your post really needs an edit sweep. I literally could not read it all the way through as it was, and from the sound of it neither could a lot of other people.

I'm going to clean it up a bit. I hope you don't mind, and I think it'll help people understand better what you're trying to say:


And for the record I don't agree with you. There are a very few licenses that I would like to see pursued (Hellboy!), but mostly I'm cool with what we have. I've said it before, but I wouldn't mind too much if there was never another figure printed. We have enough figures right now to go forever, the only problem is that a lot of people seem to lose interest in the game without new releases. If they're going to print more figures fine. If those figures are reprints, that's fine too. I'll take whatever at this point.

If it’s in parenthesis, it’s either my smarmy comment, or I took out an ellipses (…) and put in what I assumed to be the OP’s concluding statement so that he/she had complete sentences.

Is anyone else getting tire of this?

(End of OP)

That last paragraph: I’m going to have to call that one a line and a half of crock. See, I’ve worked with license holders in the past (as an Editor, I spent at least an hour a day talking to various license holders and licensees) and there is no way someone like Dark Horse is going to just rubber stamp a significant profit-making venture. Either the OP is outright lying, or, more likely, the product produced (un-cited) is not a significant capital venture and it’s still being sold illegally. There’s no way around using characters you don’t own and didn’t pay the license fee for and not have it be illegal (barring 1st amendment protections.)

I have been getting the same old Clix for a long time.

I have never gotten a tire.

This really angers me; I replaced all four tires on my Jeep a few months ago and I only have a part-time job so it really set me back.

If I had known back at Hypertime that if I got the same old Clix for long enough, that I would have gotten tire; I'd have played my cards differently.

If anyone out there has gotten one of the tires in question, please let me know how many miles you get out of them. That way when I find out that you got some really cheap, bad tires out of this deal, I won't feel so bad at missing out on it.

In summary: I keep buying Clix and I never get tire.

Geez CommanderCool and Ninjendo...did you guys have as much time to kill this evening as I did?

Maybe we should find a hobby to keep us occupied. I've been hearing good things about this superhero miniature game with the dials on the bottom that came out a ways back.

The clix tires aren't bad, but sometimes you have to pry off the hubcap and sand down the little plastic tab so they'll turn properly.

Eh. Dwarf Fortress has me pinned to my laptop anyway and I'm waiting for my dwarfs to finish excavating a new part of the cave so I can put their bedroom in there. Dwarfs are lazy narcoleptic drunks so it's taking them a while, but they're also dumb enough to let wolves eat them if I don't watch them, so I have some time to kill. There are other things I could, should, and would be doing, but I can't stop playing this damn game.

So, in other words, NO, I absolutely do not have free time to kill. I did, however, make the fatal mistake of letting people talk me into playing friggin' Dwarf Fortress, so it doesn't matter anymore whether or not I actually have the time. I'm going to make it, one way or another.

I understand your frustration, but also think about if you just got into the game and had to wait five sets to get the new batman, superman, wolverine or spider man. I joined just after Legacy sold out and had to wait until Icons to even get my first Batman. And that was a promo. My first good Superman was the promo Supes with Batman TA. If I'd have had to wait until JL to get a decent, modern Superman, good grief! When you first get into clix, you want the really big names. Then, after a year or so, you're ready for some new ones. And as long as the new pieces are interesting, so what if it's the same guys? The new Batman is cool, the new duos are tweaked enough to be fun. Sure, we've gotten green lantern before, but now we get him able to TK two people out in one turn. Super-dee-duper!
