none look too appealing to me. If I had to choose one I'd probably go with the FF team though. You might want to consider switching Outsmart for Lunge on Spider-Man and Unstoppable on Thing though...

Out of curiosity how come it isn't appealing? :)

Teams 3-5 don't appeal to me simply because I do not like teams built around generic keywords unless there is some other unifying factor as well - I've played a 'Scientist' theme team consisting of only villains appearing in Secret Wars for instance. But just mixing figures from various universes is not my thing.
The GLC team is too range oriented, I prefer a mix of range combat and close combat abilities. That's tough to do with a GLC theme team though...

And the Fantastic Four team... well, let's just say that it has a lot of figures that are a little too good for their point costs - Mr F w/BT, Susan, Thing and Spider-Man all fall into this category IMO.

I'd go with the Fantastic Four team too. I've been meaning to run them as a group and I'd like to see how you do.

I think the best team would be the FF team. I ran a 500 point Defenders team that did fairly well of

SI Doctor Strange 149
Protected-8
Inside Info-4
SI Namor-150
Fortitude-25
SI Clea-59
SI Howard the Duck-35
Cont Plan-12
Av Gargoyle-58
Total-500 pts

If you want you could swap Gargoyle for Goliath but I like to push Gargoyle to his Prob. Just a suggestion.

I'm going to have to go with the common decision here and say you should use the Fantastic Four team. It just sounds a whole lot more fun than the others.

Tried out the F4 team today and it was fun. It is the first time I played it and all I can say is that Spiderman is really the MVP with lunge.
