A truly great review, but one mistake. Cain (or anyone else with Battle Fury) can't throw an object. Clix with BF can't make any ranged attacks. I am very familiar with this as Juggs is one of my favorite characters, I love using him, and I hate having my opponents dance around him so I can't hit them!

Why does that seem like a bad call? Game-wise water terrain is a certain type of hindering terrain meaning that if you can go through hindering terrain you can go through water terrain but just because you can go through water terrain doesn't mean you can go through hindering terrain.
A includes B
If you have A, then you have B
If you have B, you do not necessarily have A
Comic-wise...when has a small pond of water stopped Juggernaut?
Because if theres a dolphin movement symbol that specifically refers to movement through a certain type of terrain one would think it was unique enough to be seperated from regular everything-under-the-sun hindering terrain.
Comic-wise if the streets flooded badly enough, yes, I think water would slow Juggernaut quite a bit if he was fully submerged in water.
But gameplay-wise? Hey, I love my Cain Marko SR and am glad unstoppable is even better than I previously thought, doesn't mean I think it's the correct decision, just as I don't think the ruling on shake-off not working with L/C or Phasing is correct, but the rules are the rules, I'll play by whatever I'm given to work with.

Cain Marko doesn't have Battle Fury.

Sr's and LE's are exactly the same in FF, so they are all LE's. The LE's are are the same in the boosters, it was a manufacturing error, which may be sorted out by ICONS, which is the last set to do SR/LE's. But YOU are getting AN LE out of boosters!!! Who is going to know the difference anyway, except for no box, but half of the LE's you get in the secondary have no box anyway, but they are the same fig anyway. At least the stats for the FF LE's are better than previous sets!!!!
Is this actually true???????The LE is the same as the SR????i DON'T NEED THE BOX IF THAT'S THE ONLY DIFFERENCE.
Actually, Atlantis Rising creates aquatic terrian, Unstoppable prevents you from stopping when entering Hindering terrian, given that you treat Aquatic terrian as you would Hindering they are not the same. Otherwise Changling and Morlocks would be moving through hindering terrian with out a problem, that is of course someone actually played them.
Note: Aquatic characters "treat water terrain as clear terrain." That is why they can't run through a bush.
Water terrain is defined as "hindering terrain on movement only."
Unstoppable says "ignore the effects of hindering terrain on movement only."
And yes, Superman Allies and Ultimates can run through water too.
Life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone.
Damage Shield – With six clicks of Impervious/Invulnerability and the fact that Cain intends on being in close combat, this isn't too bad of an idea. Add Armor Piercing to Cain as well and make sure that this feat's effect sticks.
Since when does Armor Piercing allow Damage Shield to go through Toughness, Invulnerability, and Impervious? AP says that damage dealt by the character cannot be reduced below 1. Damage Shield simply does damage to the attacking character (note that it's the card doing the damage, not the figure.)

From what I've seen, the SRs tend to have slight fading on the bronze ring on both the front and back of the figure.
The tournament LE's have the same fading (at least the Cain Marko and Reed Richards Marquee Prizes I've seen on display do). I don't believe there is any discernable difference between the SR/LE's you get in the boosters and the ones you win at tournaments. It was a goof up this time around, so that's is why I don't think there will be a way to tell.
