okay, here's my gues for "the seven":

1. Hellboy (obviously, he'll have to be in there, and a nice re-do would be col, lets hope they give us new sculpts in the deal)

2. Abe Sapien (everyone's fave pick, they must include him)

3. Liz Sherman (also a must have, so she's in one way or the other)

4. (?????????) (the fourth slot is tricky, because there are so many good choices for BRPD backup, they could do Roger the Homonculus, Johann Kraus, that new zombie commander they have... what's his name? anyway, I feel that they are gonna give us four BRPD and three enemies, so this is the slot where the extra character will go...)

5. Baba Yaga (seriously... they put Hecate & Rasputin out already, so I'd much rather have the Baba Yaga, and she better be super powerful... especially for HorrorClix!)

6. (????????) (this slot will e the generic villain Lackey slot. I'm hoping its a Frog demon, but I'll take a Kriggeraffe. A second Stringer like Ilsa could go here too.)

7. Kronen. (wel they just have to don't they?)

Oh HECK no. That's a generic vampire hunter. We need a Buffy set for Horrorclix! Don't you kill my Horrorclix Buffy buzz, darn you!

I don't much care if Buffy comes to Heroclix, but I'm waiting impatiently for the day they make her in Horrorclix.

And since it looks like they're giving me the BPRD additions that I've been waiting for since the Indyclix set, maybe there's hope for a Horrorclix Buffy set too...

Abe and Liz better be in there. I'd love to see more of the actual BPRD members as well, rather than half Hellboy villains. I want options in building a BPRD team!

Buffy/Angel and/or Hellraiser are the two licenses which would guarantee I started buying Horrorclix.

Can't wait to see how they're going to pull this off!

I am concerned about the movement values of these figures. Since they are for both games, I suspect the movement will be 6-8, since the Horrorclix maps are much smaller than HeroClix.

Range might be gimped too. Who knows..

`Le

A movement of 8 is not terrible. None of the BPRD dudes is fast. And there's already an 8 and higher in Horrorclix, so that's fine. And they'll have ranges of 6 I'm assuming, as that's pretty standard "handgun" range in Heroclix. Liz may have a higher range, yes. But hey, bigger rnage in Horrorclix is just sorta overcosting them becuuse the maps are so cramped. They'll make ranges as big as they want them.

What about point costs? I don't think the point formulas are the same for both games. I'm not saying they can't do it well, but that is my main concern. I'll buy it regardless, but it'd be nice if they were competetive.

I do dig the cross usage for the game systems. That's gonna be awesome.

By no means official or even necessarily correct, I entered Horrorclix dials, using Heroclix colors / PAC, into a point calculater:

http://geo-media.net/clix/dial_calc.html

Some were within just a few points, none were off more than 20% and only a few were that far off.

FYI, I did the same with Mage Knight and although there were many close, the swingers were more than 20%, as high as 30%.

I am thrilled to see "Hellboy and the BPRD" - and that is who I expect to see. No villians, Just the BPRD. Horrorclix is full of villians - like Cthulhu!

Hopefully Hellboy won't be a midget!

Rejoice!

I will have to buy 2. One for Heroclix, and one to customize for Heroscape!

That is very cool Doc. How did you get an Abe fig? Did you make it yourself, bra?

Front

Just because I feel the need to bring this up...

You know who would do well as a cross-promotion set that would have -exactly- 7 figures?

THE ENDLESS!

Death, Dream, Desire, Delerium, Destiny, Despair, and Destruction.

Here’s another vampire/zombie/alien/witch hunting superhero that could cross both games. El Santo, the Mexican wrestler/superhero/detective (of the Batman type).

Check him out. http://www.internationalhero.co.uk/s/santo.htm

The Goon and many others are featured here too. http://www.internationalhero.co.uk/t/thegoon.htm

While I have your attention, the site is a gold mine of international superhero, and classic superhero info for those who make their own alternate clix. Check it out from its home page here.

I think they'd be too powerful even here. But it would be cool.

My guess is that if they ever do this again, it will be with Blade. But, I still think that Planetary would be a shoe in, as well as Hellblazer.


And strait from the Indy vault, Dead@17 would be nice too.

Really (and this is the first and last time I will say this) if the Endless come out in clix form, Heroclix really will have jumped the shark
