It's a game mechanic now, whether you like it or not. The fact that they continually flub it up is a little disheartening.
Your buddy can play Scientists from 3 Universes or more against your Lantern Deputies and get a cancellation and a buttload of PC rolls, while you get nothing.
It does matter.
That's a flaw in the theme rules, not in how keywords are assigned.
If anything, the major flaw is in everyone bandwagoning on theme construction full-power, overemphasizing what was clearly designed to be a more casual system [exacerbated no doubt by a grossly indulgent benefit assigned to an ill-defined parameter]. If everyone points out bad theme potential vs good theme potential, theme teams will never go the way of Arch-enemy rules, which is precisely where they should go [rolled politely into a feat and left to die].
Man... We need a regular Flash that looks that good!
My only bust is that being a lantern, shouldn't he be able to fly? Otherwise, awesome figure...though I'm still trying to decide if he is worth the point value.
Its an awesome piece both to look at and (probably) to field. Like someone mentioned earlier though, he should have flight and range to make him superbad. I'm so pumped for this set.
Oh and, the Bluebarry nickname...genius!

Reason: forgot to mention
i think... i need to change my pants... That is great. Between this flash the Crisis flash and the new flash that's coming out in tBatB. The Flash is now the greatest thing ever.
One of my fav sculpts in the set, the dials not too bad either. i would totally play him on a team with Jimmy woo. together they shall conquer all!!!!1!
Slap Nanobots on him and he's going to stick around for quite some time if you position him halfway decently.
As for the Keyword, meh I couldn't care less. I do as well playing without theme as I do with it. This is a piece I'm excited about regardless.
I agree, theme teams are cool but i rarely use them, getting the extra prob is like using grenades, you can use them and than be out, but victory can be achieved without them too.
This starter just keeps getting better and better. I can't wait to see the rest of the starter figs. It will be really interesting to see what Star Sapphire WW looks like!
Thanks,

140 pt fig with 18 DV + Supersenses who can hypersonic for FOUR damage (using the perplex) with an 11AV.
What is everyone complaining about???
He is sick...
He can't use the Perplex on himself. But still, 3 damage and a sweet looking sculpt. I love it. I wanted something comparable to Zoom from AA. I think Zoom would take him one-on-one, but he's still pretty darn good, and pretty cool.
First rep to count_aight for the name bluebarry. I think that "bluebarry" is beyond cool. 3 damage on a Flash, 14 speed hypersonic, 18 Supersense, O lets not forget a 11 attack. I may have to splurge and buy two of these starters sets. (Dont tell my wife tho)
