Top Secret?

A simple "We don't know" would do fine.

[JacinB]

Well, Trigon's Daughter looks to be pretty cool ... certainly a lot different play-wise than Raven is. Jason Burr might be alright, too, for an all Kobra team.

But, I'm curious as to all of the Top Secrecy about the other prizes. Does WizKids just not know what they are going to have yet, or is it actually going to be something really good?

[thugit]

Maybe it IS a secret.


Raven LE looks ok.... Not as good as the REV, but it's different.

[SilverAgeFlash]

Must have RAVEN le by any means...

[themark37]

I can't wait to get my "Prizes for this event are top secret! Check back in a few weeks!" LE

[krusticlese]

that was useless...

I generally schedule my tourneys based on what prizes are offered...

and if I wait too long, there will be no events left.


Who wants to bet that the "top secret" LE's are Indy leftovers :):)

I have to agree, I will do anything for this figure.

Well, they've got to get rid of all of the crud somehow. And, personally, I'd rather they not start showing up other places ...

Beat me to it, was thinking same thing........

[SilverAgeFlash]

they might be ultimates figs they dont want us to know are in the set???

[PsychoDBoy]

If they were indy leftovers, they would put them up there I'm sure....they've been throwin the indy leftovers out as prizes for months now, no reason to call it a secret now.

I'm hoping we get an LE whiny congoer, with a click of perplex coz they throw out so many complaints at once you dont know whether you wanna try and answer them and make them understand, or just clobber 'em.

[AlgertMan]

rather have the Fanatic LE

[Ghost_Rider_92]

I too agree that they are Ultimates. But since it's too early to show them, they will wait as they said 'check in a few weeks" Hence wait till previews start and THEn we'll reveal them.

However, I hope one is a Supermodel Hobbit with extra hairy feet! ;)

[de4dp00l]

I want to believe that they're Ultimates LEs, but I find it more likely that they'll be sending out whatever they have left from older sets.

Also, the Raven LE looks pretty dang cool. I love Psychic Blasters, and a Phasing Mystic PB with Perplex is even better.

[DS-00-0, FSD]

So, where are all those people who were commenting last month about how WK was going to bent over the players by offering junk LEs for the Unrestricted events???

[Ed0825]

If we are talking June prizes here. They could very likely be Marvel LE's from Ultimates. They may not want to spoil the characters, new TA, and/or powers at this time.

Personally thought, I think they should have a Punisher preview today to coinside with the movie coming out today. They did it for the Daredevil movie.

[AlgertMan]

maybe they are Universe LEs, maybe a Peter Parker, or something like that


i can hope cant I?

[TheFreak]

maybe they are Ultimates prizes.....the set DOES come out in June after all.....

Could you please quit trying to put a positive light on anything WizKids does? That's unwelcome behavior around here, man.

[krusticlese]

Hairy feet are SOOOO Hot!!! :):)

[dernjg]

I'm betting Ultimate LEs, and they're actually trying to keep it under wraps until May 21st-ish. I mean, did anyone really care about the last couple of previews?

[dernjg]

Whoa! When did the OTHER LEs sneak into the units section? Jade? Kendra?

[PsychoDBoy]

That wouldn't be logical coz then they'd hafta deal with the backlash for it for months to come on here Im sure. Getting rid of leftovers is what con season is for.

[DreadDormammu]

Odd that Jason Burr has no Charge. :ermm:

[dernjg]

Querl Dox I can do without, but I must have Kendra Saunders, Richard Swift and Harvey Dent. More of a love of the character than the "killer dial factor," though.

[4est]

I would bet on Ultimate LE's as well.

Wow Trigon's Daughter and Mordru seem like chocalate and peanut butter.

[Spidersense]

Since Trigon was Raven's demon father, I think this LE is her evil side - hence the Mystic team ability which can go either way on the good/evil chart.

I like to stick to theme so this is an interesting LE for me to pursue.

[thugit]

At least this version of Two-Face has 2 arrows!

Otherwise, they look fairly weak, although Kendra has a little bit of usefulness.

[Ulvar]

I hate the Name. Why not just call it Raven. Sure she will have the same name, but at least it is a name.

[Dr. Morbius]

top secret my butt....those are Ultimates LEs they don't want to show us yet :rolleyes: LLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMEEEE!!!!!!
You could have at least spilled the beans about the names and withheld the pictures.

Bah...you just don't know how to keep your fans drooling...:p

[rouge2]

Universe stats are also up, including the Starter Six! When did that happen?

Wasp & Hobgoblin have grounded and Elektra's got Combat Reflexes.

[rouge2]

Never mind, Draddog just posted a new thread for 'em.

[Spock]

hey, as long as it isn't more HT LEs...I don't need anymore of those.

Wow Trigon's Daughter and Mordru seem like chocalate and peanut butter.

Is that good or bad?

[4est]

Oh I mistyped go together like Chocalate and Peanut butter. 2 mystic psy blasters with phasing one with outwit the other with perplex. Hmmmm good. In open play you can add Yukio to keep the theme up and enhance your blasts even more

[Yeti]

Yeah then she can team up with Mordru a phasing PBer with outwit and Dr. Fate a phasing PBer with PC. You get the trifecta of support!

[freakazoid_x]

Trigons daughter?

Granted her father is important... but to classify the LE as "Trigons daughter." That uhhhh is really unoriginal.

[Thorgrin]

Might be a mix of Ultimates and Universes LEs. Something like a Pyro or Bullseye LE. :)

[Spidersense]

I'm telling you, I think this is to differentiate the fact that this is an evil Raven.

Though I dont know if "Evil Raven" would be a great name either. Maybe "Dark Raven"

[Glen Quagmire]

I gotta add to my sig. WK, thank you for giving the LE Querl Dox the three clicks of Defend ... but why does he have LEADERSHIP?!?!??!?! :mad:

[Captain_Comet]

My specualtiioon for the TOP Secret LE's are
Killer Frost needs an LE
Big Barda needs an LE
Chameleon needs an LE
Kobra needs an LE
Batgirl needs an LE
Cyborg needs an LE
Queen Bee needs an LE
and they are not in the units section. So I'm compelled to
assume its LE's for some of these characters.

[Rocket Ranger]

Overall, most of the LEs revealed so far seem very playable and are generally different enough from the R/E/Vs to interest me enough to pursue quite a few of 'em.

My personal faves of the new reveals are the Deadshot LE, the Shade LE and Hawkgirl's LE. I have to give Wizkids a big "THANK YOU!" for placing the Hawkgirl LE back on the JSA, especially considering the mid-dial outwit which the team badly needs. She's just what I wanted for my JSA teams!:)

It's no little thing pleasing a comics-themed player!;)

[theSHOWDOWN]

Maybe it's a KC LE Bruce Wayne? One that's actually worth using maybe? That'll never happen.

My bet is on ultimates.

[Glorfindel]

Could it possibly be new 'Universe' LE's?

[GMSLegion]

I hope we get another couple of shots at Critical Mass LEs before they start offering Ultimates specials. I wasn't able to make many tourneys the first three months of the year, and only have 6-7 from that expansion.

[dj_sha]

Uhhh, I'm not sure if I'm behind on things, but I just looked at the LE's list for UL and saw some LE's I've never seen before (Shade, Deadshot, Two-Face, Brainiac 5, etc.). Are these new and therefore the "top secret" LE's, or am I just behind?

[esfoad]

These LEs rock. They're not just slight (if any) variations on the REV characters like some of the recent sets. Each of these LEs is hot and I'll try and collect each and every one of them (tournies, trades, ebay, or otherwise).

Great job, WizKids! Thanks!

[tchipley]

Trigon's Daughter?...Does that means we may be seeing a Not-so-limited-edition Big Fig Trigon himself? You heard it here first folks!!

"Part Time Soothersayer!!"

[SimonMoon5]

Gah, Querl Dox is useless. Leadership? This version of Brainy has never led anybody. Exploit Weakness? This figure should never get into close combat, especially with his weak attack value. Defend with a lousy DV (especially since you'll want to push past that lousy first click with Leadership)? Bah.

And I think Jason Burr is an odd choice for a name for a Kobra fanatic, considering he was, like, Kobra's arch-enemy.

... and a Killer #### LE makes 8. I thought I had forgotten
someone.

So I think the top secret LE's will be amongst these guy and maybe just as a big tease some Ultimate Characters.

[Glen Quagmire]

Defend is actually the only thing defendable, no pun intended, about this Querl Dox LE. A higher defense would have been nice, but none of the other Legionnaires have a 16 defense. Most of the Bat-Villains don't have a 16, no generics have a 16, and there's a slew of notable Unleashed characters (Black Adam, Supergirl, The General) who peak at 15 DV. He's also the cheapest flyer in the game with Defend, and as a wildcard, that should be handy on a team with R Green Lantern (John Stewart).

Truth be told, this figure would have been better off if Defend was the ONLY power they gave it, compared to these other ones. As Simon said, Leadership and EW on Brainiac 5 are bunk. You have to go back to the swinging '60s to find Brainy as a Legion leader. I'm all but sure that the designers are using the rebooted versions only as their template.

Meanwhile, the designers continue to deny Brainy the Barrier power he deserves. I suppose Incap is here to represent Brainy's force field, but it's a poor representation.

[theZehrung]

Hey, been hearing another rumor, possibly exaggerating....that the TOP SECRET LEs - one of them is named Kurt Wagner ----- AKA NightCrawler!!! so fiction or non-fiction? guess we have to wait and find out!

[Puuka]

The "Top Secret" are Marvel Ultimates.

There are only going to be 20 LE's - this seems obvious since the Shazam LE is # 221. So none of those figures listed above get an LE.

And today's news makes it obvious that the "top secret" LE's for June were in fact from the Ultimates set.

So that's all wrapped up nice and tidy... yay.
