Your fine...its helping us all. Even though im not totally happy with the set...it still excites me to see the new stuff and maybe gain some more want for it.
If you ask me you are doing wizkids a favor. I love being able to hear about and see the new figures. Instead of about yet another mechanic to adjust to.
Thanks and Rep for the info. I appreciate the time and effort. The generics definitely help the picture for me.
Unless this unveiling (the event you went to) wasn't given the nod by Wizkids (say, if someone closer to the distribution lines managed to get hold of a case early) I wouldn't expect them to reasonably have any objections to getting the info out. There really wouldn't be much reason to hold such an event otherwise.
As I'm generally sold on a set based on the set list - I'm interested in the dials, of course, but that's stage two - the info you've given's what I'm most interested in. Thanks again.
I'm trusting any ATAs will be Print and Play and open to all, so I'm not worried about that.
The Duos remain a downside for me, as do the chases -- all the moreso given the two-piece gap between Black hand and Nekon, and any talk of LEs (presuming them all to be prizes) make them things it's best for me to ignore.
There are enough points in place to make the set a likely success, though I dread which elements they may decide to claim as the ones driving the sales.
Thank you Algrim, both for the spoiler dials and pic, and for the honest explanation of the why and why-nots. Very reasonable and well thought out, sir. Much appreciated!
I will agree with the previous sentiment about your excellent handling of the info you have been graced with. I think a set list this close to release is very reasonable. I would also think that since we KNOW WK reps visit the Realms, if they really didn't approve of what you were doing, they would certainly ask you to stop. Keep up the good work.
Its all fun and games until someone rolls snake eyes on a push.....then it is hilarious
Actually, I think the OP is doing a great favor to WK, since they certainly can´t figure out what is a good thing to preview. I´m "very slightly", more excited about BtB now than before, thanks to the "spoilers".
Imagine this...all we've seen is 10 figures from NECA. They look great! Everyone is looking forward to the set. The set comes out, and we see the current list.
People would go NUTS! There'd be so many negative threads on HCRealms that the Admin would have to lock the forum down. People complaining, people threatening NECA, etc.
At least people's feelings are coming out slowly over a week or two and not all at the same time Wednesday morning (tuesday night).
I knew sharing a bit of info this early would bring some heat on me. That darned if you do, darned if you don't kind of thing. That's fine. Some people want me to show everything and others are mad that I'm abusing some kind of imaginary non-disclosure agreement. That's okay too.
But I want everyone to understand where I am coming from. I LOVE HeroClix. I am passionate about it. What I have posted was only done to share some of the excitement I was feeling.
One of the many reasons I have not dumped dials everywhere is because we are still two weeks out and despite what it may seem, I am not trying to steal any of WK's thunder.
I don't want to make any of their awesome write-ups lose their effectiveness by dumping the dials. I love their previews and I want to see them until the end.
If NECA/WK or any of their representatives contact me wanting me to stop leaking info - I will. Not out of fear or threats or anything like that, but out of respect. I like these guys and want them to be successful. If they feel spoilers would undermine their efforts, I totally understand and would immediately comply.
My intent is to share my excitement while trying to head off some of the negative assumptions that have spawned from some of the rumors.
All that being said, I will keep leaking little bits every day or two just to keep us all going until the set drops. I wanna keep everyone as excited as I am until release day - and then we'll all go play some sealed and tear it up!
I know I can be long-winded. Thanks for reading...
Frick. Too soon to rep you again.
You're awesome, and I appreciate not only your willingness to hook us up, but also your understanding of the bigger picture. Thanks!
