i still don't understand why not. yeah yeah, he's powerful, but thanos was kickin his arse in the infinity gauntlet and they made a "weak" version of him. why not just make a unique of him, then they can always say that this surfer was when he was weakened and blah blah, that's why he's only 250 points...

*wallet breathes sigh of relief*
gives me a good seven months to save up for that...

that does bite. being that it's probably going to be hard to ask you about it in person, i'll ask you here. what happened? IS IT worthy of another "open letter to JonL?"

black canary, green arrow and martian manhunter are all
Yes, more confirmed figs for Cosmic Justice! Did you actually see them, or were they just mentioned? Just curious which costume Black Canary and Green Arrow are in. And whether Martian Manhunter's a unique or REV.

There were so many exclamation marks in that post, I thought my head was going to explode by the end ;)
Thanks for the info :)
foilball thank you very much for sharing that info!!
Everything you said falls in line with the tidbits of confirmed information I've picked up, so in case anyone doubts you, I'm backing you up.
The only thing I hadn't heard about were the map packs. They sound very very cool, and I'd love to hear any more information you might have about them.
IE, will they be like the adventure packs with extra objects, or like MageKight packs with limited new figures? Maybe we could see a new Captain America with the Avengers pack? Hmm?
Thanks again, and if you don't mind, PM me about the marquee/easter thing, I'd love to hear the story.

Same here, i'd love to hear about the easter weekend.
I'm also glad to hear about the maps. While I worked at kinko's i made soem custom maps but I don't even touch them now since they are smaller than normal HC maps. I will wait with bait on my breath till they come out. And PM me about Easter Weekend!

Very cool some things I knew some things I didnt.
Whistles as I walk away.
I would love to hear about that easter weekend deal. How about everyone who wants to hear about PM him your email address so we can all hear about without him typing it over and over again. :D ;) :p
Just a thought.
Or he could just type it once into a word doc and then copy and paste into PM's.
Or start a new thread in the Another Realm section and we can all get a good chuckle together.
I'm actually happy about the timing of the marquee, even though it falls on my birthday, I won't exactly be in church that weekend, so maybe I'll have an easier shot at the prizes. :D :cool: :D

I dont play the game but have die-hard friends who do & saw the photo of this thing. supposed to be HUGE. if you did see any, were they for sale at all?

my venue actually recieved a dropship. it's fricking cool. you should have seen the look in all those hungry retailors eyes as they waited in line for one. it's was priceless.

Cool,thanks for the info! You weren't able to confirm any other Cosmic Justice figs by chance, were you?
I'm a recovering catholic, so i won't be in church!
nice one shin-goji. George Carlin couldn't have said it better-"I was a Catholic....until I reached the age of reason"
(the preceeding post has been done with a comedic tone...please no hate mail flame wars)
Thanks for the info! This stuff is gold!
BTW, why don't you just put the Easter story here? You know that tons of people want to hear it. (if you have a good reasonj for not posting it here, then just PM me aswell :))

Thanks for all the info. Lot's of really good stuff there.....except for this;
"clix points are officially useless, stop saving them. they were supposed to be used to help sell heroclix in case the line launched badly. it didn't so they tossed it. look for them to dissappear from the packaging on new releases."
Well, that blows. Big mistake on WizKids part.

Have you tried bringing HC to church? She might not make you go anymore after that....:D
Bring a team with Daredevil and Manbat. Paint Manbat red and change his name to Satan. Also, use flesh-colored paint and whittle down Elektra's battle-bikini into straight pasties. Man, that would so rock! Hey, take me with you! I may even get you ostracized!!!!
Man, I love going to church!

All of this is great news!
Except for the Clix points.
That is an irritant.
But it in no way diminishes the thought of GA and Black Canary clix, et. al.
Green Lantern! Wonder Woman! Martian Manhunter!!! My JLA world has officially been ROCKED!

If you want a dropship, you're gonna have to hit eBay or deal directly with somebody near you who got one at GAMA.
Thanks for the scoop!
I'm actually the only one who's glad about the clix points, as I never saved any of them, I'd feel like a real schmuck if they turned out to be worth something after the 100s I've tossed in the trash!
Thanks again
PEACE

You don't sound like an idiot, particularly on the Marvel boards.
STAR Labs is a scientific organization in the DC Universe. If there's a need for technobabble in a story, it probably happens there.

I don't read much Dc so thanks,
Ah ha ha ha! I was always excited about the easter marquee.
that's 4/20 baby! As you can see I am probaly not going to church that day. It is a pot head holiday. I am going to get so blazed then I am goin to to and play at a marquee and then I am going to blaze for the rest of the day it is going to be great.
Good to hear that indy and another marvel set are around the connerand yes even comic justice in june. A rep from my venue went to gama and got 2 drop ships do not ask me how I will see him on monday if anybody really wants one let me know I will see how much it will cost me! But the MW junkies may beat me to them.
Well that is all I really have to say. ONE baby
