PETER PARKER!!!!

[clixer11]

DMITRI!

[VetLogan]

Coooooool!!!! Peter Parker!

[Darth Sabre]

Peter Parker, Clint Barton, and Morlock leader are all pretty good. But can someone tell me why Seth Voelker has phasing and the Serpent Society TA?

[VetLogan]

What are LE #s 209 and 210?

[SuperGENE]

Must! get! Peter! Parker!

But really, he's a respectable LE. Clint Barton is definitely one of the best I have ever seen though. A definite gme breaker. The rest are eh.

And why does Sidewinder have phasing?

[shock man x]

Well well well. All that complaining about Callisto being a ranged figure and not having leadership and what do Wizkids have up their sleeves? A close combat monster Morlock leader. Awsome prizes. Peter Parker is great!!! Finally a spider-man with perplex.

Seth I don't know about. His dial is making me scratch my head. 15 defend? Are defenses really getting that bad where you would want to share a 15? I'll stick with the rokie.

[shock man x]

Earthbound on an aquatic figure? Never saw that comming. :surprised

[Maniac_nmt]

the Ultimate figs are awesome! I'm glad Wizkids finally got arround to making Parker and Logan LEs. Now if only they do a Steve Rogers LE this set will kick serious kiester.

[Captain_Comet]

that's one heck of a morlock and PETER PARKER, WOO HOO!

[Ro-gan]

Peter looks GREAT!

But, what's with Callisto being called 'Morlock Leader?'

[jiggle_billy]

callisto's lookin #### good

[vaders sabre]

But can someone tell me why Seth Voelker has phasing and the Serpent Society TA?



I can!!!

remember this is the set thats all messed up. This is like the forth fig from this set thats all messed up.

[shock man x]

You know if you pop off Callisto and replace her with a Marrow sculpt the dial represents her as leader of the morlocks too. Mabey that's why.

[kwsazul]

Callisto is great, but I wish they would have given her a less generic name

Peter Parker is nice for his powers/points

Clint Barton! TRIPLE incapacitate!!! + Ult TA = must have

[CuriousLurker]

Can Earthbound put the kaibash on the aquatic movement ability?

This reminds me of those old "doctor can I play the piano jokes"

[Thunderbolts]

A new Clint? Noooooooooooooooooo........

Time to bust out the freakin' Open Universe cheese to get my hands on this one.

tb - also, anyone notice the Unrestricted event?

[shock man x]

Earthbound changes the dolphin speed type into the boot speed type just like it changes the wing speed type with the boot speed type. The disadvantages with the wing to boot are just easier to see.

[The Qwardian]

FINALLY A SPIDERMAN THAT CAN BREAK A WALL ON HIS OWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!:laugh: :p

[Thunderbolts]

Natasha isn't too hot though really (see units section for more new stats)

tb - if this is old news, disregard

[Grinner]

Dang! I gots to win me some tournaments!

A Calisto who remembers how to use her knife? Triple incapacitate with a 10 attack? Spidey with Perplex? (Actually, aside from the 4 range I personally think this is the most accurate Spidey ever).

[vaders sabre]

They added even more le's then this look. Dr oct is like way better then his R/E/V

[Howard d. duck]

Thats cool that Clint Barton represents when he and Black Widow took that Skrull office building in the Ultimates.

[aquajock]

My guess, based on the other two Serpent LE's, is that Sidewinder's LE is supposed to be non-affiliated. Other than that, I know I'm going to be hitting up a bunch of tournaments to get me some of these LE's. So far, very happy with the Ultimate's LE's.

[krusticlese]

I think Sidewinder was given both the Serpant TA and phasing intentionally.

Bro Mags has been hinting around about a new power that will cancel team abilities. If one gets outwitted, he's got the other to fall back on.

As for Dr. Connors getting earthbound... have you ever seen a one-armed guy try to swim? :p :p

[swinte]

Peter and Clint look awesome! Can't wait for the tournaments.

[CooperMcP]

i'm going to go crazy to get a morlock leader. not only is this figure a close-combat monster as is, but with the morlocks team ability, her AV can be shot up even more. this figure will be on evry team i make.

[WakandaMan]

Wow. For the most part these LE's are far more accurate than the REVs. Why does Wizkids insist on doing that! Grr.

Also, why the heck does the Dr. Curt Conners have Outwit? Isn't he always a dumb brute, or did he ever get to be a "smart" lizard with Doc Conners brain? If it was on his first click, it would make more sense...Interesting about the Aquatic vs. Earthbound. Does the REV Lizard have Aquatic movement? If so, he should really have Earthbound as well. :ermm:

This Hawkeye looks to me like the most accurate one yet. Very nice, and I really want one.

That Sidewinder with Phasing is odd. Perhaps he actually doesn't have the Serpent TA much like the LE Anaconda, and this was just a misprint.

I am really shocked by these point costs. These LEs make me think that the formula has been changed even more. Take Spider-man: He has both front loaded Perplex and Incapacitate, both of which have always been insanely expensive, and yet he's only 71 points! Although I must agree that this is the most accurate Spidey to date. About time he was given Perplex! Now we just need some 6 range.

[WakandaMan]

Just checked out that Doc Ock LE, and man he is really really nice! So many good LEs...but I bet we get a bunch of Sentinel Captains here. Prize support in Australia really sucks. :(

[Lex Luthor Jr]

That's kinda strange. Hawkeye's move with Running shot is 7. I don't think I've ever seen an odd-numbered Running Shot value.

[DarkSoldier]

Who's Blanche Stizxnski? She looks like Sabretooth in drag.

Boneyard! Where are you?!

[DiceShooter]

Blanche is Anaconda...

Ok, so yay for finally a Spider-man with perplex, but look at the dial its attached to...compare that to the Vet from this set and I'll take his better stats for cheaper any day.

[ACE44]

Sidewinder has phasing because he's a teleporter.

[boneyard]

Blanche Stizxnski is Anaconda. (not sure on that last name spelling though...) my notes spell it "Sitznski"


Personally, I was hoping for some support on the Curt Conners dial. Dr. Curt was always giving Spidey an anti-venom for one thing or another back in the old days. Also a little disappointed to not see him "revert" back to Dr. Curt stats at the end of the dial - representing when Spider-Man eventually defeats and restores the good Doctor's humanity...
Oh well...

[sundown12]

Here's my initial take on the goods:

Peter Parker- Really like, but I prefer the L/C, Super Strength, Willpower combo better. Although Wildcard the Ultimates TA and Incap someone in Stealth= Sweet!

Dr. Curtis Connors- Ehh. I just can't get over the 13 defense. 13! At least he is mobile Outwit.

Clint Barton- Holy Carp! RS & 11 attack and straight-up 3 damage? With 3 targets? Then RS with Incap and Ultimates TA? Then 4 damage with RCE and a 9 attack? Since I know my playing skills I'll just be getting gouged on Ebay I'm sure ;)

Morlock Leader- Flurry + BCF= Where's my Rookie Phoenix? Cheap cost plus Leadership plus more like the comic.

Blanche Stizxnski- Blah. Does nothing for me. There is the obvious grab a heavy object, get TK'ed out, and beat the heck out of your opponent while keeping them there with Plasticity thing though. Hmmm, on second thought, for 48 points I guess she's not too shabby.

Seth Voelker- A support piece that is extremely mobile, the Outwit is always useful. 38 points for Serpent Society TA is not bad either to hook up your Wildcards.

I don't know when I'll ever get to play any of these, so my opinion will probably change, but these are my initial impressions. Not that anyone cares, but I just had to get this out. The wife is tired of hearing my Heroclix talk :p

[sundown12]

Oops! Under Morlock Leader I meant to say

Flurry + BCF= Where's my Rookie Marvel Girl? You know, the whole TK out the Slice and Dice machine? Oh well...

[tyroc]

Morlock leader???

Move over Spiral and Nubia.

[Socko]

i hope they will have these in chicago for prizes in august.

must have peter and i really like clint. howard d. duck (sup andrew>>><<<hows the thing in europe going pal?) got me into the ultimates. he [clint] and thor are my favorite ultimates probably, and their clixes are true power!

[Socko]

what the heck? the rest of my post didnt show up....interesting...

any way before i got cut off i was tryin to say how things are going for my popular european friend howarddduck. hes the one who got me into the ultimates line, and my favorites are thor (cause he just doesnt give a carp, a true ninja giveaway) and clint.



and that my favorite ultimates in clix form are really great figs.

[Thunderbolts]

My initial thoughts, but two things dismissed it - Spiral has better stats and isn't really that many more points (better TA too)... and secondly, you can't get her and Clint unless you have multiple venues to play at. :O

tb - but still a good fig, unlike the REV

[absolutvt69]

I like Peter Parker, Morlock Leader (why not pair her WITH Sprial ;) ) and of course Clint Barton. It'd be nice to win a couple of those but since I believe the judge at my venue is training someone else to be a judge so that he can play, I'm thinking my chances will be somewhat diminished.

[VandalSavage]

People are not questioning why he has Phasing as a Power...They are questioning why he has it twice!!! The Serpent Society Team Ability is Phasing..so there was no need to add the extra points for a power he already has....

Mr. Savage

[absolutvt69]

One advantage that the Morlock Leader has over Spiral is that she has a ranged attack. Sure she can only do one damage using it but at least it's there as a threat. She can also be carried.

[bradley2099]

Ooooooohhh! Another new Spidey for me!

[ACE44]

Ah. Thanks for the clarification Vandal. I was wondering why everbody was griping.

[SteveRogers]

So, I figure we have the greats of LE's...Peter Parker, Matt Murdock, James Howlett, Bruce Banner...al originals. So it's really not that hard to see who I'd like as a LE....just look at my name. Yeah, Why isn't Captain America a LE, he's one of the greats, if you want, screw Clint, he has a LE from the original set....give it to a figure that really deserves it.

Go CAP GO.

[CooperMcP]

yes, i too was hoping for a steve rogers LE after i saw peter parker. i wanted to see a cap with willpower, cuz honestly, where is it, wizkids? nobody in the entire universe deserves willpower more than captain america and NOBODY can argue that that isn't true. cap would fight like the black knight, limbless and all.

[Prof. Aragorn]

Cap isn't going to be an LE in this set because he is a rarity of 3-4-5. So far in Marvel, only LEs of grunts and low-level figures have been made. The only reason this changed in Unleashed because originally Harvey Dent was going to be made has the prize-like Cobblepot and since no one wants a Cobblepot...hey look Hal Jordan!

[WhiteRabbit909]

QUERL DOX!!!!





























Oh, and Peter Parker too.

[quicklymilktea]

Have you guys seen the LE Doc Oc in the units section? He looks great for 44 points! L/C, dual EE, willpower and CCE into flurry/super strength!

Can CCE be used with flurry?

[DarthZaius]

Yay--we finally got a Spidey with perplex. I was kinda hoping they would save the Peter Parker LE for a future figure that represents Spider-Man at the height of his awesomeness, but oh well.

[Darth Sabre]

I think he's an upgrade over the R/E/V and Doc Ock fans who want one that's playable in restricted events will want him.

As for CCE w/Flurry-sadly no! :(

CCE requires assigning a power action and flurry is a close combat action

[Thunderbolts]

Would you go and look at CT's Clint Barton and then reassess what you just said?

tb - please

Dr. Fate, Maxima, Supergirl, Black Adam and Green Lantern are all 3-4-5 and all have LEs.

(Shade, Raven, Jesse Quick too? Not sure where the rarity cut-off is)

tb - the system has changed

[Redleg]

This is certainly a group of fun and playable LEs.

I didn't know LE Natasha was up. I'll be working hard to pick her and Clint for a theme team.

[ace]

bye bye spiral, hello morlock leader....
oh and a steve rogers may come since they have a doc ock 221 le!!!

[Remjer]

Yeah!!!

a Callisto that really fits the classic one

now to have that knife fight with Storm :grin:

The Peter Parker is pretty cool too, different enough that I may try to get that one as well

[SteveRogers]

Don't get me wrong, I mean, all of the LE's look cool, and believe it or not, I'm happy to see a Peter Parker. I mean, he deserves it the most, WK finally gets it right after how many Marvel sets with a spidey? This goes for Wolverine too, and bezerker Wolvie doesn't count mainly because he was a mail-away.

Thunderbolts, I have seen Clint and in fact I own him in my CT set. This one is much better and all im saying is I am a gigantic Captain America fan who thinks that Cap take any hero in the marvel U (which isn't true but I like to think so.:laugh: )

[chase_jyd]

Ugh, just saw the LEs, immediately thought of the joys of using Spiral and Morlock Leader together, copying morlocks TA to help them both out. They'll hit more than not, and 4d6 damage stings. Worth the investment. With leadership and 2 launchers, might even get it off early.

Nice to see a Spider Man with perplex. Not a bad figure certainly.

Hawkeye... wow. I will own this figure.

[webhead817]

I was thinking the same, and what do you know, Morlock Leader comes with Leadership built in too. She will be TOUGH.

[dj_sha]

Kinda funny that both Clint Baron's (CT and ULT) have triple incap, but not on their first clicks.

Peter Parker looks cool, but I'd rather use the V. Bout the same with Clint. Morlock Leader looks pretty good. Natasha is ok and I could see reasons to use her over the V. Doc Ock looks better, but the CT version still outclasses him.

And has anyone seen the LE Storm? Why does she have an activation click! Terrible.

[aquafire]

i think the doc ock le is movie version maybe its promotion to give out at the movie


cos there is no pic of him


and hes after marquee prizes which are usually last i think (before mailaways) i think

just my $00.02

[webhead817]

I like how the vet. Hawkeye and Clint Barton give you two very similar figs that will have vastly different uses...use the Vet. if you want one BIG punch with RCE up front, use the LE if you want to take on several figs at once, spreading out your targets and incapping. Very cool.

On the Sidewinder le...there is one thing I can think of that Phasing does that the TA doesn't...extra protection from being captured. I can't imagine that's the reason he has it, but who knows.

[darius_dax1]

It really looks like Dr. Connors is trying to dribble a blue basketball.

[the itsy bit]

Doc Ock looks cool ...

CCE !!!!:classic: and for only 44 points.

[redherringj]

The Peter Parker LE is excellent!!!! Ok, whoever gets one, don't lose my username. I'll give anything for this piece!

[gorillaboss]

Yep, Boneyard's right...Anaconda's last name is spelled wrong.

Hey, WizKids...those "Offical Handbooks" come in handy, you know! ;)

[tyroclix]

Drat! Just won Wade Cole and traded for my Kendra Saunders - and here I thought I was done needing to get LE's for awhile.

Fantastic bunch here (and in the Units section).

Must gets:
Peter Parker - Incapacitate, Perplex, Willpower and Wildcard

Clint Barton - triple Inc w/ running shot

Curt Conners - expected support on first click but regenerating Outwit is pretty solid.

Morlock Leader - the best Callisto of the set bar none

Blanche Stizxnski - maybe not that much of an upgrade over the REV but I like the pushable dial

Seth Voelker - Outwit is solid but I really need that villain defend - granted 15 isn't steller and then you remember figs like Rhino and Absorbing Man. Plus - Amazo may have a new best friend when it comes to Support

Also - Natasha looks like my kinda fig. Willpower + dual Incapacitate and later on Enhancement. A great team player.

And Ororo Monroe - continues the trend of Storm figures without actual Weather Control. I mean is it really that crazy to have Incapacitate, Force Blast and Smoke Cloud to convey her Ice Cold, Fog, and Wind? Pulse Wave is interesting and might be worth a get if she is a flyer - but really - one of my top 10 fave characters from comics and my favorite X-man and still she's a lighting throwing fig only. Sigh.

Otto Octavius - a nice switch up. Won't replace his CT version until he's retired. Then he may be really fun to use.

Outside of Storm - a really nice job. Can't wait until August...

just my $00.02I was thinking it is probably a movie tie in as well.

Its weird to announce it so late, and have it be numbered past the normal LE numbers.
I wasn't thinking theater give away though. Probably some tie in with a magazine, maybe something outside the regular gaming community.

But I guess we'll have to wait and see for the official word.

[lanternkeeper]

The best LE out of this bounch is got to be Clint Barton. Triple incompacitate, running shot for a quick 3 damage with a good range of 8 to 12 w/ running shot added. How much does he move with running shot 3 or 4? He will be a game breaking LE that will be in some of the high prices and we will be seeing him in tourneys. I also love the Peter Parker. Finally, we now have him and with a resonable point cost. Good job Wizkids you finally made great LE's and for resonable point costs for each.:laugh:

It rounds up so he moves 4.

[Greenandgold]

Peter Parker LE - Very nice first click, but too shallow of a dial. I still like the Vet for the better stats and deeper/longer dial.

Too bad they didn't just add 1 click of perplex to the Vet. It would have been the same cost (or cheaper) and much better.

[New Warrior]

YES A SPIDEY with Incap before Super Strength!

[sfx5000]

This kinda sux. I don't collect the tourney LEs and that Callisto is spot on perfect. What's the deal? Why can't at least one of her REV's be like that?

[WakandaMan]

Actually the Nick Fury Unique has this as well.

And one of the She-Hulk's has an odd number with Charge late in the dial.

I didn't think there were any either till someone pointed those out to me. ;)

[Beast2029]

Cool mystery men dials
