Except one of the great things about Blob is how easy he is to hit/heal with Support at the end of his dial. Can't heal him if he's using LMD.

I'm the Uncanny Avenger and I approve this Blob.

Now why'd you have to go and give the munchkins ideas...

okay, so Golden Age; what happens if you put LMD on him?

Defense - Layers of Extra Fat: Blob Ignores all but 1 Damage Dealt to him.

LMD: 12 pts. This character may not be healed. Damage dealt to this character is reduced by 1 if it is not reduced by any other effect.


Ignored is NOT the same as Reduced.
I figure he would take no damage, unless it is penetrating; and even then he will only take 1 at a time. Did I get that right?

so im guessing life model decoy is illegal on him? cause with that and fortitude....that makes him unkillable....then play resistance battlefield condition and team him up with another brotherhood...and even with thwart......wow......time for errata!

so psy blast/ew doesn't get past his defense?

shame... when they create a special defense power like this for a guy that actually should be hurt my psy blast, they get it wrong

Wow! He's Ulik on twinkies.

Notice that he does not reduce damage, but ignores damage. He is only going to take 1 damage, period. No Exploit, No Psychic Blast. Only PW can hurt him for more.

Perfect Mastermind fodder.

PREACH ON! well I would have been happy with either Mystique or Domino

actually this is the first fig I don't want from this set. Great job Wizkids, you have made a great set so far!

As the active player I chose which simultaneous effect happens first. I chose Life Model Decoy to reduce the damage by one and then the SP to ignore all but one damage dealt (see also: Xray Rulings as this isn't the first time this has come up)

I also would have liked the Blob to be movable by friendly figures with TK or the Carry ability.

I do like that they worded his defense so it doesn't have the Ulik flaw.

My goal now is to move the Blob in a game with Nightcrawler and make him cry like a little baby.

If the active player chooses to let you ignore and then reduce, that's his business.

However, the smart active player (AKA the one attacking hoping to actually hurt Blob) will choose to make the reduction occur first and then ignore the damage. Meaning Blob will still take 1 damage.

And now you've increase his point cost to well over 100 points and he can still be Incapped, PWed, or just pinged to death (see my point above about the active player choosing the order to apply the game effects). I'd actually love to play against some one that did this... more points for me

Holy cow, this guy slows down a game but good. If you don't have Outwit, that's a lot of hitting required to bring him down.

Blob is kinda dissapointing, His specail is awesome, but is stats are horrific. He is like Ulik all over again everyone thought that is special was so good that it made up for his horrible defense values, but guess what that didn't last long. Blob suffers in the opposite way though, yes his special is better but his attack and damage values are horrible. He will make good mastermind fodder and tie up, that is about it. He just seems too expensive for those stats.

if he fights Ulik.... longest game ever.

I love this figure. It can do decent damage and doesn't cost as much as Unus. There is something to love about a morbidly obese villain. I am jacked, especially with Harry Leland in this set. I can now run another sweet Fat Guy team. Now just have to mode Blob into a bikini.
