Weekdays are good. Wednesdays might be good since you pick up comic books and play a tournament. It's also a great way to recruit hot chicks that read comic books but aren't familiar with Heroclix.

Just my two cents.

?

Yeah, I like Mondays and Wednesdays because those are my days off (alternated).

Ncernak, any $$ on those UK Indys?

You would have to go 285 east. Both of my venues are out there. One is on Fridays at 6:30 at Champions Comics. The other is (for right now) at 11:00 at Titans on Saturdays. I may change the Titans time for a later time or later day.

The reason I did it at this time was for Marquee purposes. With this people could play here in the morning and somewhere else in the afternoon.

Has anyone noticed how much the Ultimates Uniques are going for on ebay.
Nothing
Even the Thor which I was afraid would have silver surfer like status has gone down to the $31-$37 dollar range. The Iron man can pretty easily be bought for $20-$23. And the Hulk is about the same range. The Phoenix figure though is a huge surprise. That figure is going for between $23-$29. Is that not crazy? I would much rather have the mr. Sinister figure and you could probably buy him for about $15.

It also seems that less people I know bought cases this time and a few people I know are getting out of the game. Do you think this is due to the price increase? Or, is it possible I am harshly comparing this set to Unleashed which everyone wanted due to the huge powerhouse figures in the set?

These are just trends I have noticed. Wondered if I was the only one.

Tried to get the Thor for ya d-roc. I went back to Hillbilly Comics 'cause I was bored. I persueded to have him open the top row of one of his cases. Watched him pull Baron Zemo and Thor. I offered $20 for it but since it was his 1st, no dice. I even negotiated a trade for him, he got Magneto and Xorn for his Carnage (the guy originally offered Zemo straight up). I figured I did well for him and he would sell the Thor to me, no dice. I do have your E Colossus again, now I need one for myself.

I think the 'downward' trend may be due to set retirement. I think it's really hurting the game. People are angry they are dictated to as to which figs they can use in sanctioned tourneys. Then again, the values of LE Annihilus, Creed, and Banner haven't dropped much at all from what I've seen.

Thank you for trying. I really appreciate it. Lord knows I want that figure.

I was looking on the ebay earlier and the les are really cheap too. Wade cole and Johnie ell are going for nothing. The johny ell is not great but the wade cole is a good figure. Also, you can get a Hector Hall le for about $12 now. Someone bought one 3 days ago for $2.75. Isn't that crazy?

They didn't buy that Hector for $2.75, the reserve wasn't met. It was only a 1-day auction, something fishy about it. Most are running in the $15-$25 range, averaging at $20.

Look at the prices of items that have recently ended. They were super cheap.

Good night all, I am going home to see my evil girlfriend and listen to her nag for a few hours.

Hey y'all.

Honestly, Saturday is a really bad day for me too. I'll make the Titan game on July 24th, but not again until August 14th, and not long after that the football season is starting...

Does the store stay open late at all in the evenings? What about Monday night?

I don't think that there's any doubt that Heroclix hit its peak some months ago. Just look at the players in Cobb County who are out of the game or selling their stuff. GEC hasn't seen more than 8 people at a tourney in months, sadly. Champion's never been a huge scene - I think 12 was a store best, but we're lucky to have six now.

Does anyone here still play at Dr. No's? I stopped going there about five months ago so I dunno if it's thriving at all.

I think that if Critical Mass had been released a couple of months later, with as much care and attention to the figures that has been paid to Ultimates, then things might be a little better, but WK just released too much product too close together in 2003 and the crummy quality of CM really ticked some people off.

A poor figure selection and higher price hasn't persuaded people to jump back on, I'd say, even though the pieces do look pretty good. I've bought maybe 8 boosters of Ultimates and I'm already bored with it. Two marquees and it's singles and swaps for me, I think.

It is good to see you on here Grant. People do not post on the Greatescape forum as much as they used to so I started this. I thought it would be fun and plus I have been meeting new people which is always nice. Even crazy Adam from Champions has posted on here. We racked up a crazy number of posts today for a two day old clan. It is fun because I am at school on it while Nick and Jeff are at work.
I figured this would be a good place to throw out scenario ideas and get feedback on things. And part of what I like most about clix is meeting people and talking. And I really like to talk about nothing in general. You know, not just clix. On the other site I would get mad alot so I figured it was best to post somewhere new.

oops ! Thanks for reminding me. I'll get something figured out this weekend.

Are you going to stop by Champions tonight?

I couldn't agree with you more. 2003 was a bit of a mess with Heroclix/Wizkids. Even this year with the retirement announcement has offended players. Totally understandable. It upsets me I can't use my Annihilus LE in a tournament. This game is loosing steam. I think it is hard for some people to justify the increase in price when you a paying for example, your 13th variation of Spider-man (4 IC, 1 CT, 1XP, 3CM, 4UT)

I do love this game and will continue to play it.

####, the King was gonna post but you guys have filled up seven fn pages! I blame strippers and makers. But everyone knows real playas sip bartles and james...it's called class gents. You know what else is classy? Girls who carry rubbers. It's not so funny when it's your blood in your pee...Lates!
