In a world where Heroclix is hounded by set after set of DC or Marvel characters, let’s take a moment to stop and dwell on the potential of the Indy sets. We’ve seen Yu-Gi-Oh, we’ve seen lord of the Rings. What could be lurking around the next corner? So many sets from the serious to the wacky remain to be explored! In this edition, the spotlight is on Rick and Morty!

Fair Warning: This article may contain spoilers about the subject it reviews.

For those of you who are unfamiliar, Rick and Morty is an animated show that originated as a spoof of Back to the Future. The show revolves around the titular Morty as he accompanies his genius grandfather Rick on adventures throughout a Multiverse. Rick and Morty has achieved some standard of recognition for its use of science as plot devices, and its unique heroes who aren’t exactly. . . traditional.


What would the set look like? Maybe something like this . . .

001 Rick
002 Morty
003 Beth
004 Jerry
005 Summer

027 Mr. Meeseecs


Potential powers and Traits: there’s a pretty wide range of powers that could be expected in a set like this as a lot of characters are pretty unique. Overall I think there would be some common powers. For instance, there are a number of Rick’s as a theme in the show is collaboration between the different Ricks of different universes. Much in the tradition of some Spider-men we know, I could see them being able to switch between figures. There may also be some common theme amongst the Rick's considering they all have similar abilities, Probability Control, Perplex, Outwit, and Phasing Teleport for their signature portal guns.




Keywords:
A few generic keywords we’ve seen would include Scientist, Robot and Leader. as for some more unique additions I feel the most common one would be the Council of Ricks, to really emulate the various and colorful Ricks of the multiverse and unite them on one team.

Character Spotlight
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Evil Morty
This Morty is fro ma dimension where he got tired of the way his Rick treated him and retaliated by enslaving his Rick via technological implant in his brain. Then he proceeded to kill the other Rick’s of the multiverse. As you can see, not the most stable kid. However as far as Mortys go he is pretty capable. I see him using Mind Control and Shape Change most apparently. Both for his control of his Rick and then for his tendency to direct from behind the scenes. I also would like to see him have the ability to Mind Control friendly characters named Evil Rick. I’ve always enjoyed the vast possibilities that can arise from giving multiple activations to a single unit.













Seen here having returned to his original form, Water-T!
Ice-T
Now we all know and love Ice-T, but did you know that he is actually a sentient chunk of ice from a region of space where everyone is a letter of the alphabet but he was exiled due to how his heart was as cold as the ice he became. According to Rick and Morty, this is the story of the real Ice-T. Oddly enough a chunk of sentient ice can fly, so expect that on the dial coupled with Incapacitate and Precision Strike. And I could see some defensive abilities like Impervious or invulnerability. In the end I would also like to see him with either Support or Defend as he dies end of caring enough in the end to help Rick and Morty.













Abradolf Lincler
As you may have guessed from the name, Lincler here is a combination of Abraham Lincoln and Adolf Hitler created by Rick, he wanted to create the ultimate leader without prejudices. Despite his ultimately confused ideals, Lincler is a fairly impressive fighter, wrestling a few two headed lion things before he goes down. As such I see him running Charge, Flurry, Sidestep, coupled with Super Strength and Impervious. I would also like to see have Leadership, as he is a rather odd, if good leader and Perplex, though perhaps switching between debuffing and buffing things as he switches between his ideologies.













Nearly everyone in this picture is actually an alien parasite
Alien Parasite
These little guys project ridiculous illusions that then you feel compelled to remember as an old friend. They then feed off you psychically and multiply. As a click I see them having a few stealthy things like Stealth Shape Change and Super Senses, and because they feed off others Steal Energy seems appropriate. However past that I could see them being able to pick a standard attack power at the start of their turn to show their morphing ability, and maybe coupled with the ability to replicate themselves.








Mr. Meeseecs
Mr. Meeseecs is a strange race of creatures produced solely for the purpose to carry out a set of instructions giving to them at their creation. Now, those familiar with them may question why I have him listed as a chase here, but consider their rate of production, its literally as fast as you can press a button. They may not last long, or be the most stable but they are a nearly instant army. I’d like to see another reproducing character they makes bystander tokens. For abilities a simple set of Charge, Flurry, and Battle Fury to show their maddening rage.















Why would Wizkids even attempt this?
There aren’t many reasons why wizkids would attempt this, and it would be a bit difficult to handle some of the inherent raunchiness of the show, or deal with the inevitable licensing rights of Ice-T, but overall it could make a terribly entertaining set to see in action.


Didn't see the set the way you wanted to see it? Have an idea for a set in the future? Then please feel free to relax in the conveniently placed comment section below.

A few friends and I spent a good amount of time talking about Rick and Morty clix. Our idea was that it'd be a drop down display with the same rarity model as Batman '66 but each character would also come with a random bystander, most of which would have minion abilities of some kind so they play better with their natural leader. This was out set list:

Rick and Morty Clix

Commons
001 Rick
002 Morty
003 Summer
004 Beth
005 Jerry
006 Birdperson
007 Morty Jr.
008 Squanchy

Rares
009 Fourth-Dimensional Being
010 Snowball
011 Dr. Xenon Bloom
012 Mr. Needful
013 Scary Terry
014 Beth’s Mytholog
015 Krombopulous Michael
016 “Fart”

Bystanders
BS01 Intelligent Dog Soldier (minion: Snowball)
BS02 Galactic Federation Agent
BS03 Anatomy Park Exhibit (minion: Bloom)
BS04 Mr. Meeseeks (minion: Summer/Beth/Jerry)
BS05 Parasite
BS06 Jerry’s Mytholog (minion: Beth’s Mytholog)
BS07 Councilman of Ricks (minion: Rick)
BS08 Unity (minion: Rick)

OP Kit
101 Mr. Poopybutthole
BS09 Cromulon
Map Smith House/Anatomy Park

The timing of this is kind of hilarious, because I was just fooling around with a jokey Mr. Meeseeks dial.

I think Morty should be able to be equipped to other characters like a really, really lame possessor.

I love this idea! Would be great if they actually made this someday. "I'm Mr. Meeseeks look at me!"

Mr. Poopybutthole. Where's he at?

This is an amazing idea. How about Megaseeds for the OP Kit Object?


Morty: Holy cow, Rick! I didn't know hanging out with you was making me smarter!

Rick: Full disclosure, Morty—it's not. Temporary super intelligence is just a side effect of the Megaseeds dissolving in your rectal cavity.


It can do a click of damage for outwit or perplex.

Super-cheap special object (2 or 3 points) that when picked up is equipped, and you gain Perplex and Outwit. Every turn you roll, and on a result of 1 (to 2?) you get a negative effect and lose it forever?

Meseeks Box
Give a character this is equipped to a free action to summon a Mister Meseeks

Mr. Meseeks bystander token
Spd 8 Special: Plasticity, Charge, Running Shot and Sidestep
Att 11
Def 18 Special: Can use Impervious. Ignores penetrating
Dmg 3
2 bolts, range 5 (they will find something)
It's gettin' weird! Give Mr. Meseeks a free action. They can use Perplex and Probability Control but can only target the character who summoned them. If, after they have used either of those powers, the target misses an attack, give the Mister Meseeks a Weird token. At the end of your turn, give the Mister Meseeks a weird token as well. If you successfully hit and damage an opponent, remove the Mister Meseeks bystander token (Can do!). At the beginning of your turn, roll a die. If it is less than the number of weird tokens, the Mister Meseeks goes insane and will immediately attempt to attack the character who summoned it

Mandatory power names

Honestly this would be the greatest addition to heroclix and it would make sense. They can travel through different universes. Who's to say they didn't stumble upon the comic book universe. I'd buy the whole set

Scary Terry
-charge, blades, exploit.
- maybe an outwit and a mind control to go with his dream jumping
-Or a shape change/super senses

Dear Wizkids, please make this set. Amen
