This guy's very good for 35 points, but no Scientist keyword? I hope there's an Arnim Zola in this set or Red Skull will have no one to build his weapon.

Hydra is getting a HUGE boost to swarm team.

Fixed keyword, it really is Scientist and not Soldier. This makes him crazy good with Schmidt and GSX Professor X scientist teams.

Looks decent, but is nowhere near as good as the A.I.M. Renegade for a similar point value.

These Technicians have so much for 35pts. Just having one next to Red Skull will increase his odds of damaging someone tremendously. Hydra TA to lower their defense, perplex to increase your attack, AND enhancement to increase the damage. Those are 3 GREAT bonuses for only 35pts. Then you can use him as MM fodder. I love the AIM agents but these guys are more comic accurate for my Hydra teams

Some scientists for new skull...
good...

oh yeah, and don't forget that these are the new researchers...

Wow. Put him next to Schmidt and he gets even better. With the SHIELD TA added on, he could potentially modify range +1, damage +2, opp def -1, and still have a Perplex left over. Serious support.

Keep in mind that the Shield team ability only lets you do one OR the other, but not both in the same turn (unless its been changed recently). Still a really good support piece. kind of annoyed with the 0 damage though. While he is supposed to be a supporter, even the old SHIELD Medics could do 1 damage for most of the dial.

Remember as long as they are by Schmidt or skull, they have perplex so technically can always have 1 damage. Odds of this guy being used without either of those is not likely IMO.

It was changed, around October of last year.

this is the best fig in this set. if you doubt its awesomeness, look again. far better than the aim agents on the right team and its 0 damage is irrelevant. if you are counting on these guys as attackers, then you have lost already.

scientists rule the roost now, and these guys insure lots of brutal professor x-red skull teams going forward.

Perplex and enhancement for my chase Skull plus the benefit of the Hydra team ability makes this one of the first guys I pull out of my hydra box when team building. Solid.

over 25 points and has both hydra AND scientist. the uncommon red skull found a buddy.

This guy is NASTY especially when Schmidt is around. I played him recently and with Johann, he has Enhancement, Perplex, HYDRA TA boosting attack, and SHIELD TA to either boost rang or give him a token to boost damage again! He's a ranged attacker's best friend.
