Don't you know? It's a "major prize." I'm guessing it's the giant leg lamp from Christmas Story

It has to be Galactus.Like other people have stated, why would they place a sentinal next to the box and why would it state"4 or more squares" in the FAQ's.
My question is, why did Wizkids get a box mailed to them that says Wizkids.It just looks to me like they sent the Box to themselves.Maybe this is a senario for all of us to play. :-) LOL I guess we will see tomorrow or soon.
PLEASE LET IT BE GALACTUS. I will pay $100 for him.He is my all time Favorite Marvel Villan/Good Guy.Good Guy cause Reed saved his life and Galactus called him Friend.Galactus to me seems Neutral.He takes Energies from planets cause he must to survive.Oh well.If your not ganna open let me have it and open it for ya or use an xray thingy or do somthin with it :-)

Krakoa, The Living Island
a Celestial
A Rocket with Bucky strapped to it :eek:
The ego of Jim Shooter or Todd McFarlane
Todd McFarlane's Ego Could NEVER, and I mean NEVER fit in to a box that SMALL!!!

Here Here!!!! I have to concur with the knight! Open the box!!!!!
I think it's Osama. He's an early Martin Luther King Jr. present that will be offered only at conventions.
Oh, and in case you guys didn't see, there's a little sticker on the side that says "Don't Open till X-mas," so just be patient.
It is Galactus...his left foot! It has a collapsible base so on his speed value of 24 he/it can appear to squash any Clix in a sixteen (4X4) square area and they appear to "flatten"! That's "Charge" power. Has the "Power Cosmic" which ignores all defense powers and deals 12 damage to all figures it contacts. Or not.

Guys, obviously it's Shin-Goji in the box, sending his remote controlled Sentinal out ahead to scout the way.
I mean, c'mon. Didn't you SEE the last Hero-Lix?

From what I heard it has a spring loaded leg which cranks up until cocked. When your figure is KO'd, whoever is playing the part of Galactus gets to flip the release switch. At which time your fig is smashed by the mighty foot of Galactus. Now THATS high stakes clix. Bet you won't see too many Nightcrawler teams facing him.

Yes, you see here is the marketing pitch. "By shelling out such a huge amount of cash for whatevers in this box, you too can create the 7th Deadly Sin, ENVY. You will be the envy of all your clixmates."

All I want to know is: How long after they "open the box" before we see a thread titled "Galactus is broke"?
Kittens could take out galactus easily....never mess with kittens. They fool you with their cute mews and adoring eyes and then BAMN, they are running off with Nightcrawler in their mouth and you spend next 45 minutes coaxing the kitten with food to leave poor nightcrawler alone.
Galactus has nothing compared to the kittens. Even Doom is foiled by kittens.....
Please... I have that same Galactus at home.

Dang I wanted to say it's powerbomb too but 50 thousand beat me to it. So I say its Demothenes uncle in the box. He has paid for speaking of the secret master set that turns all who hold it into heroclix champions.
It's the next DC set though.

Hey i'm not sure if this has been said because I haven't read posts 200-272, but wasn't it rumored that there was going to be a big fig of the Dark Pheonix, maybe she lurks inside this myterious box, and the Sentinal would be another link to the contents of this box.
Brad Pitt said it best in "Seven"...What's in the BOX?
I think Gedde Watanabe said it better in UHF. "Show us whats in the box!!!" "Nothing, absolutely nothing!"

Ok, here I go, after sitting here and reading for half an hour:
First, you are fueking WK's interest on HOW MUCH they are going to charge for this "Mystery Object"
Then, you are giving them Ideas on how to charge you even more by trying to guess what is in the box.
Also, you are giving them MORE money making ideas by saying that this fig is only going to be available at cons. Now they can make even more money off of all of us by only have VERY FEW of them now instead of releasing them to shops.
My take on it, it is a BFC, a big freakin' cannon to represent the new Marvel set. But that is my $.02, and I dont even go on my word.
But for this little publicity stunt and to make clix a game where even my 12 yr old brother cant even afford to get the game anymore, I am done. I am not going to buy another cliq until they reveal the little stunt or just let all of us that have been sucked in by this sham off the hook with what is in the empty box.
Of course I go with the idea I read a couple of pages back or so, it is a mini sized sentinel next to a normal sized big fig box. I already dont want to buy Unleashed because of the Sentry, now to take me off of Marvel clix too with this?
Shame on you WK, shame!

Master Mould could be another possibility, like others have mentioned.
There could be two of him in that box, sitting down like he first appears in the X-Men Adventures cartoons from the mid-90s.
From a marketing point of view, what would sell better; Master Mould, or Galactus? And ask yourself before you answer that question, who were we asking for more; Master Mould or Galactus?
I put my money on Galactus.
truefully I think they'll pull an AL Capones Vault on this one....well minus Geraldo!
I think its the 45 1/5 figure ultra special powerbomb booster w/out interweb spoilers! SOOOOOOO powerful and BORKEN that they had to tape the wall back together behind the package after setting it down on the table.

dag it could be anything!
a figure, a ship a buncha 3d terrain stuff
i think 3d terrain would be the coolest, i mean Galactus would cost like 100 bucks
Along Funky's line of thinking
maybe its the Leg Lamp but instead of the fishnet glowing beautifulness we are all used to its a fishnet covered purple leg that glows with cosmic power and yearns to eat a planet.
One last thought before bed. Everyone has mentioned the Blackbird, Quinjet.
Howabout the FF's Flying Bathtub with limited edition HERBIE and Willy Lumpkin clix figures. Thats my guess and I am sticking to it.

This thing, what ever it is, is specifically for Marvel Heroclix.

For those of you who were whining about how Marvel was getting gypped compared to DC, are you happy now? I don't know what you're getting, but I think it's in a big enough box for even you malcontents.
Also, nobody sent Wizkids this box. Those logos are official, and the box is too professionally made. They made the box and took a picture of it, and this whole thing is just to build suspense.

01/09/2004, 00:15
Wow.
Galactus? He would be awesome. My money is definitely on having him with some accompanying maps. I mean, how would he fit on most maps, even with 3x3? 4x4? That covers 16 squares. Not bloody likely. But possible. With the adventure set, the box could actually be that big. Considering that it is a map - 10 bucks... plus Galactus - 20 bucks - plus price gouging - 10 bucks, - probably a 40-50 dollar piece of equipment there.
If so - would he be tournament legal?
Otherwise, Master Mold really doesn't fit into Heroclix... Fin Fang Foom would rule, but he's too unknown by most (or perhaps that's the reason that it is!!!)... Anyway, otherwise, I'd say a new Marvel set. That makes sense too.
65% - Galactus with New Maps, etc.,
35% - New Marvel Set...

01/09/2004, 00:17
I'm more hoping for a big fig of The Watcher. 500 points with no abilities. He just sits there. Just sits there and watches. You know, just normal Watcher type activities. Yep, just watchin' you play your game. Look at him just watch you move around. Man, this is gonna rule. Just watch!
CarlosMucha
01/09/2004, 00:20
Well the Fantantastic Four's Galactus figure is obvous small in comparation with this box, is really the Galactus comic soo soo big??
I have the secret Wars TPB and you can see the foot of Galactus is the same size of the Dr Doom tall

sinistersex
01/09/2004, 00:32
it seems likely to me that whatever is in the box is exactly 2 sentinels high, and a few wide. i would guess it is a box full of Galactus's. ready for the shelves.

01/09/2004, 00:33
I would pay $100.00 for a Galatus!!!

Yeah, THAT would blow!!!

Galactus will conquer.
Galactus will be forever etched in our memory.
Shin, pack away your Sentinels.
I tend to agree with you, while it's not one of my favorite characters, Fin Fang Foom would make a good large scale figure. Galactus, I dunno, as it would just be too darn big, and far too many points to EVER use in a tournament or even a casual game if done right.

I was excited when I saw that whole box stunt. I've been following this thread for a good part of the day.
But now it looks like they won't unveil it today, and I feel I've already started to lose interest.
If they don't show it off tomorrow it's just going to cause unecessary hype and ultimately disappoint. Just like the Mage Knight 2.0 announcement that was supposed to 'turn the gaming industry on it's ear' Yeah, right...
The whole 'afraid to open the box' story is pretty lame too.
Let's get some Unleashed previews.
It is, unfortunately, the bloody torso of Jeff Grubb in a glad trashbag. Now we all know what really happened to him. He was just too good to live, apparently.
All joking aside, I'd really like to see it be 3-D terrain. It will most likely be Galactus. With the rewrite about figures taking up 4 squares or more and a set being released with three of the remaining heralds it seems almost obvious... but I think we've all been tricked before by WK...
Whatever it is had best be available to the general public, not just to convention goers or judges, else many many fans are going to be very very mad. If it is a Giant Galactus it should be $60 US if they plan to move many... and he better be really really good...

REALLY!!! WOW, that is PURE GENIUS MAN!!! I would have NEVER in a million years guessed that they were not serious about not knowing what was in the box. Of course they don't know what is in it, it says so right there on the front page. Not only that but they are actually afraid to open it too. Wouldn't you? ;)

Hmmm...
I think that if it IS a big fig, it's not TOO Much bigger than a Sentinel, and that there are just multiples in the box.
If I had to pick one big fig I wanted towering over my table...FIN FANG FOOM.
Galactus is just too........BIG.

Maybe its just the first wave of Captain Surfers (Silver Surfer on a Captain Marvel Base) people are sending back to wizkids? I've pulled three of those already and it totally sucks. Also pulled a veteran daredevil with no upper torso, and an Adam Warlock with no arms. Then there was my headless Dormammu and my Ulik without a base. My favorite has to be the Morgan LaFey I pulled that is missing the flight stand part of its base (it was just the character and a dial, no flight stand, no way for her to stand).
People at my venue have these problems all the time with critical mass. Oh well...
Ill still keep buying like a mindless drone, and ill buy whatever is in the box.
tyroclix
01/09/2004, 01:15
Well the box is supposed to be standing that way - due to the This End Up printed on the side.
Now either this box is a shipping box or a cute way of hiding what's inside.
If it's simply being used as a hider - then it would have to be Galactus - a figure I would certainly not buy since it would seem it is quite unwieldy.
To build suspense in this way to reveal a figure dramatically smaller than the box would really be kinda lame.
The one thing that (to me) leaves the door open to it not being Galactus is the 'caution' tape.
It's not very cosmic - and "caution" seems very understated for the eater of worlds.
That makes me think it could be a 3-d map of some sort.
In the end, Galactus is the most obvious choice - but wouldn't it be even greater if it wasn't!

I don't really have that much spare time...just bored at work. ;)
Anyway, I would really enjoy a Galactus fig, as long as I can afford to buy him. Once it gets shipped to Australia, and converted to our dollars, the prices of these special figs tend to go through the roof.
Sounds like lotsa fun. I'm guessing something like 600/800/1000 pts.
The only other one that sounds cool is the SHIELD Helicarrier. Now that would be a fun.

Anyway, could you be the sculptor of our mystery suprise?
Your comments would explain some of the more lack luster sculpts which will remain nameless, heh. No air will do that to people, eh?

Fin Fang Foom?!
That might be a bigger financial disaster than Indy clix
The only oversized figures that I can see making enough $ would be:
Galactus
Giant-Man
Dark Pheonix
Appocalypse
and that list might even be a name or two too long
FFF??? wouldn't pay a plug nickle for him.
I'd like a Fin Fang Foom but I believe he'd be far smaller, much closer to a Sentinel in size.... and I also agree that I am in the minority by wanting a Fin Fang Foom.

its galactus, ive got a hunch and boy thatd be cool.
Just woke up from a nap and got out the palmtop. Sorry folks, didn't mean to cause this much confusion. It's just me here in this box, I couldn't afford a plane ticket and really wanted to meet some wizkids staffers(even if it is just the inevitable mailroom clerk and security gaurd now that I see such a big deal has been made about it) I just put the caution tape on it so nobody dropped me.
Man, it's getting cold out here in front of this office, and I'm getting really hungry. Could someone open me allready? Please, I'm lonely.....
:confused:
I just thought of something. Wouldn't it be great to be able to order whatever that thing is directly from WK and have it delivered in the mail in that box? What a neat little gimick that would be...

$ is'nt any issue with me
Doesn't matter what it costs, if I want it I will buy it......even if it means off of ebay for bid moola.
as much as I'd liek to see 3-D terrain maps I doubt its that simply because the news would have been in the indy and DC sections it could be Galactus however.....

01/09/2004, 03:11
hey maybe it's just a box
I don't remember Galactus ever being taller than maybe a 5 story building. But if he can change his size, then it's a moot point.
This is most interesting...perhaps...Onslaught?

Ok I work at wizkids and I know whats in it and I think you should all know,even if the the senders trying to keep it secret...See wizkids plans on selling it in that same box to consumers but whats in it is a ninja that plans to jump out when you open it and steal all your HC figures and bring them back to wizkids so you have to buy more!Its a brilliant plan really.
No seriously though I think the only logical thing in there is either the figure everyones begging for (galactus) or an actual 3-D battle feild for playing on.Mabye a few put together skys####ers and some trees.Personaly i think the 3-D battle feild seems more possible.I seriously doubt that galactus would be THAT big unless theres alot of em in there or alot of packing

Guys...It's a Heroclix Bomb...It's clicking Down and when It gets to the ko/ko/ko/ko it'll be more like ko-boom/ko-boom/ko-boom ....anyways j/k. I think it's Osama Bin Hidden in that Box..He crawled into that box and found the Galactus everyone's been looking for and tried to keep it for himself. Little did he know the Maker of The Galactus Sculpt planned on sending that box for all the Galactus fans. So, as he slept after many, many hours of playing w/ the Galactus and his little green "coalition" army men he fell asleep. Now he is sleeping in that box...so, they better get the authorities out there to handle him...b/c believe me he won't want to part w/ that Galactus....lol
Is it just me ..or is everyone overlooking the fact that the what ever is in the box is prolly like the mechwarrior dropship ..either you can only win it if your in the top 10 at the world championships..or it's some US convention only 100 dollar , 1 per person buy thingy ... so if it is galactus (let's hope :) ) ..noone outside of the us can prolly get their hands on it ..unless we fork over hundreds of dollars on ebay ....
So I hope it's an galactus if i can get one :)
But otherwise ..i hope it's like mega fluffy lucky dice that only roll 11's :)

So its a box.......
OMG GUYS!!!!
Its the $1500.00 U Ms MarvelBot!!!!!!!

Seriously though........
How could a person play a Galactus fairly? I mean C'mon, to make him playable with the other figures, you know they arent going to pump his stats, and he wont have all the abilities that you think. If it is him, you might be disappointed. I mean shucks, look what they did to Spider-Man for 4 sets. And he still isnt right......
Maybe Scarlet Spider will be though......
Anyway, I have put my Heroclix up for sale in my sig now, if anyones interested :p

skyounkin
01/09/2004, 05:35
Yes, you went overboard.
Galactus would sooooo rock as stated before.
So, his cost wouldn't be exact representation of his powers, not a big deal, besides he comes to Earth hungry therefore weak (I mean come on Mr. Fantastic beat him-whoopee the guy just stretches, can't be too tough)
But really if Marvel gets Galactus then DC should in all rights get
IMPERIAX!!!!
Now there is a brawl for all waiting to happen in clix!!
Galactus would soooooo rock!!!
If it is galactus he should be 1134 points ...so you can play 1200 point games and still have enough points left to support him with a rookie firelord :)

01/09/2004, 07:04
Whew! That's a lot of thread right there! I had to read it to make sure I didn't copy what someone else said. Turns out, that was a good idea since a bunch of the posts end up saying the same thing...only 10 pages later. Based on the amount of posts mentioning them, I'm guessing its either Galactus, or, much more probable, kittens.
If it does turn out to be Galactus, I LOVE the Secret Wars blister pack idea, even if all it had was a Galactus (smaller than the box) a reversible battle planet map, Galactus's Cat and a bunch of those spheroid drone things on clix. That would be a great addition to the game!
More than likely, however, if it is Galactus related, we've all missed the mark so far. I believe it's one of the following:
-Galactus plush toy complete with a Firelord clix attached to his hand with velcro and a small sqeaky "Earth" toy. When you tickle his stomach the giant purple planet eater says "Feed me!" in a cute baby voice that's trying to sound threatening. At this point you can insert the Earth squeeze toy into his open mouth. Then Galactus burps and says "All gone!"
-A folded up Galactus balloon which you blow up with the accompanying helium filler. Then, for hours of non-stop Heroclix fun, you keep swatting the balloon into your opponent's face while he's trying to count squares. If he tells you to stop, you simply show him the latest faq about how "swatting the balloon" is now allowed in official tournements.
-A Galactus pinata. Instead of candy he comes filled with clix points...clix points that the fans had sent back to Wizkids to make a point. Thus, the dance continues.
-Two big "Galactus" dials that you assemble, place on the map, and then you and your opponent stand on them. The game is won by the person who successfully knocks his opponent off his dial, and most likely to the floor. This new Wizkids game is called King of the Heralds. Oh, and one more thing...you can only use your head to knock the other player off the dial.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure those are the only versions we'll see of any Galactus. Personally, I'd rather see a Mole Man Monster.
I also think tyroclix has a good point about the caution tape. Would that really be appropriate for Galactus? Hmm, I'm going to have to think about that.
a 1:1 scale Hobbit ?

If it was a DC clix then I would've guessed a Legion of Doom headquarters. It was also the Gulag (metahuman prison) in Kingdom Come.
But since it's not I tried something in a simple picture program. I cut out the Sentinal and pasted it to a clear area. Then doubled it's size and placed it over the box. It fits pretty well inside the box, so lump me in with the Galactus group. #### that's a BIG fig.

Seriously, what sense would Galactus make? He's either completely misrepresented or too powerful for any kind of balanced game.
I'm hoping for a MK:Dungeons type product that introduces 3D landscape, board-game rules, interacting with the environment (more than just "you can't shoot through that")...

Two to wear the ring.
Two to hold the figure.
Four to argue that the figure is broken.
Six to post on HCRealms that it's borken.
20 to ask what borken means.
One to say, "Let's change this game."
Four to get banned for flaming and "LOLLOLLOL Her0Cl1x suxxors"

Oh, and Thugit, yeah it looks like a hulla hoop, but remember the restraining order about you shaking your hips in public again. We don't want another incident.
Some Speculation and Calculations:
If it is a single fig. It would be at least 8x8. Mobility on this fig would be very limited. Clearly they haven't made rules yet for such a fig since it doesn't fit in a starting area. BUt they could.
It might be multiple big figs. That certainly would be a tease.
It might be a complet set. Hopefully a new one, but it could be an old set.
Clearly it is some stunt though as the box is not labeled. If this were a final for resale package it would say what it was.

Da da da...The ULTIMATE ZIIIIIIIIIING!.
Well, you just did say that. Boy, I hope it's a new daredevil.
I'd rather have a Skrull dropship.
Shin, the Aurora Dropship works GREAT as a Skrull Dropship, or a SHIELD helicarrier! It has it's own dials and with some creative house rules, it makes a great scenario piece. I picked one up at DragonCon. Its side bays can hold a horde of Skrulls or SHIELD agents! It actually gives you a fighting chance against any villian or hero team you put together.
For that matter, I bought two different sized Galactus figures (one 14" tall that says "FEED ME!" or something like that) during the summer to play scenarios. He looks awesome behind Firelord and now I've got that Silver Surfer guiding him to devour worlds! The only thing Wizkids could add to that is the dial and their own take on his power level and rules.
I'm still excited for a Galactus clix. Hoping for a sculpt that's not too stiff may be unrealistic since Galactus never looks very mobile. Give him the Boon action pose. Ooooo-wa, Hi-yaa! Or better yet, the Critical Mass Spidey pose! Yee-haaaa! Hey, baby, size does matter!
shin-goji
01/09/2004, 10:18

shin-goji
01/09/2004, 10:23
Come GET SOME, Kree Dog!
Man, that would be sweet with Ronan the Accuser!
even better, a dropship sending out a bunch of brood! Led by Le prof X...sweet.
Just give me the 1000 point dropship, Ronan, and 250 points of Men of the Kree! We'll even let you have that traitor Mar-Vell! The Supreme Intelligence has spoken! The Skrull menace will be eradicated once and for all!
Ronan? Yeah, whatever,Mar-vell would wipe the floor with him!
It'd be easy to make a Kree Sentinel. Just take a Sentinel and put a tire on his head. And paint blue/baby blue. And replace XMen/Brotherhood with Skrulls as his enemy.
I bet it's Galactus, and I have a feeling that venues will receive one (like the dropship,) for they're support of hosting Heroclix tournaments.

Since this is only showing up as a link from the Marvel side of the WizKids site, I'm saying it is definitely Marvel related. Galactus would be my first and best guess, although I would prefer it to be multiple double size and mounted figures.

The Powerbomb rumour thread, wasn't as stupid as everyone thought. Maybe the guy that said he had inside info, did indeed know something, but was just wrong on the release (he said Jan).
Since this box has caution tape painted on the box (denoting something dangerous inside) and Wizkids says they are afraid to open it (hinting at a bomb), this could very well be a good way to announce the next Marvel set... Powerbomb.
Guess we'll wait and see.

I like heroclix. I hope it's something for heroclix.
If that isn't a Galactus for HC, then I'm breaking out the Kevlar Suit and the Crossbow (...again...).
LoL

No, wait. It's 10,000 Multiple Man figures - who says WK doesn't listen ?
No, No, No, - it's got to be a Baxter Building that opens up to reveal the whole FF supporting cast as Clix.
Um, No - it's Galactus.
Realy.
It is.

Is it ticking? That could be a good indicator of what's in there. Does it smell? Another telltale sign.
If they make us wai until monday, They'll have a ticking smelling box on thier doorstep! And it won't be a watch in dog doo either!

Well, Shin is it dark where you are? You may indeed be in a box. Don't be alarmed, take shallow breaths and someone from WK Emergency Services will come to assist you.

It's all the other halves of the Captain Surfers out there. It's full of...
Silver Marvels !!!
I hope it's all one billion individuals that go into the Collective Man....
He sucked in comic-book form, but he could be pretty cool as a Heroclix

Unless I miss my guess, it'll be a box of socks, because those wacky folks at Wizkids, Llc, love to rhyme.

It might be a specific Marvel buildings and 3 others with puzzle piece tabs at the edge. each set will get a 4 piece set that can mix and match...

A big practical joke by Wizkids with nothing at all in it, designed to fuel rampant internet hysteria and speculation?Asteroid M battle map / structure? The Starjammer? A Shi'ar Cruiser? All the Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Omega Flight members that WizKids has refused to make? (drool) A Dark Phoenix construct similar to Sinestro? (major drool). Nah, probably just Galactus. It would seem appropriate since we now have about a million different former heralds.

I'll giggle myself into a coma if it doesn't turn out to be galactus after all of these posts.

I think there is an Ewok Borg in the box.

I've got Mastermind and HSS, so I can VERY quickly run from underling to underling sloughing off damage to people other than me. However I also operate under Sentinel rules for pushing.
Hate me?
Don't be that guy :)

The employees of the WizKids office in Bellevue need to start thinking outside the box. Soon.

I take great pleasure in thinking of the WK employees reading this thread thinking, "Those smart-@@@ bastards..."
I think Wk is struggling to keep those kittens from clawing out of the box....its kittens. Two things come in boxes, shoes and kittens. And that box is too big for shoes. Logic people...gotta use the ole' noggin!

Well frist time I posted I was stupid and said the next DC expansion. Umm Marvel was written too small.
Soo.... I think WizKids will say
1. See through packaging? clear plastic boxes?
2, It's the magical 2 clix a box things they list in products but ive never seen.
3. They are increasing hero clix to 5 a box just as Mage knight used to have.

01/09/2004, 13:22
It's the wrong shape for a case of clix.
it's all the broken figures i returned to them...
hey Puuka theres somethign I didn't think of, it would be cool if it was just that. a 3-D building with sections of street around it so you can throw pieces out of the building and take the fight out to the streets would be great

I heard from a freind who has uncle whose son is dating this girl whose dad works with this guy whose son works with a chick whose husband fixed the car of a guy who is freinds with this other guy who is dating the daughter of someone high in the food chain at WK and she said it is the new booster boxes. So now on all booster will come in boxes like that.

You guys are WAAAAAY off!
Tom Hanks and Steven Speilberg bought Topps last week. Then they marooned Jon L. on a south Pacific island, where, I'm pleased to report, he's focussing on designing Heroclix 2.0, SportClix 3.0, and MechWarriors 3e4.0
The box? It holds an old volleyball.

Bested by logic....it COULD be Galactus shoes. And is he gonna be mad when he finds out they mailed it to WK. I mean...wouldn't you? You are sitting around, ordering shoes and BAMN, they are sent to the wrong address and people speculate about them. No sense of privacy anymore....
they shipped the workers over. cost less this way than buy plane tickets. notice the little air holes..

Don't worry, that's just a box of my clean laundry. I spend so much $ on Hero Clix that WizKids offered to clean and press my dirty linens. Awful nice of them.

When you make lots of money and people love you, you become eccentric. Look at Micheal Jackson.
BTW, did you hear what song he was working on when they arrested him in Las Vegas?
It was a cover of the Elton John song "Don't Let Your Son go Down on Me"
