This week Steve and Gudda do a 2011 round up and Check out the end for a little Clixmas Bonus track! Here's to a great New Year!

I am from Asia and I have to say that Street Fighter is actually famous here. But so is Marvel and DC. Their fame is kind like on par.
BTW, great show guys!

Cool it's always good to see whats going on in other countries! Glad to know it's famous, but Marvel and Dc also do as well!

Weapon X is from the Captain America set; not GSX.

Always a fact checking monster! That's for the assist. When are you gonna be on the show?

To help with your Onslaught questions, I find him to be quite fair. Have played and played against the figure often. Not specifically building against him, a balanced team has an above average chance of winning. But he can certainly be devastating. Enough of both pros and cons.

Agreed that GSX is the best of 2011. Everything was great, but I know my X-Men far better than Cap or Hulk. And also DC is immediately out.

First time I have ever listened to one of these. I did listen to almost the end but I was just wondering if this is just a recorded phone conversation between you 2?

Highly enjoyable podcast celebrating a good year for heroclix. Thanks guys, happy new year. I think you should use this podcast as your long standing one on the site (i always see Ep. 81 on the home page)

Have to agree with you on alot of your top five lists:

I have enjoyed so many remakes this year, just updating so many teams to modern age heroclix. I have a new Avengers team with (Captain America, Nick fury, Hulk, Black Widow), X-Men (Professor X, Cyclops, Wolverine, Rogue) Brotherhood (Magneto, Mystique, Juggernaught) and Reign of Superman.

In my area the extra liscences of Lord of the Rings and Street Fighter have really increased our player base. I just hooked them in from a wider background interest and now they buy into the Marvel and DC stuff too. The street fighter scults really do look amazing and the Epic/Campaigne rules for LotR is fun to play.

For me the 4 most wanted stuff of the year has been: Watchmen Fast forces as this was a much more economic way of getting those figs and I really enjoy the movie. The second is Gandalf from Lord of the Rings, one of Wizkids biggest bad moves for us was the distribution in the LotR set, three near identical displays came into our LGS and none of them had a Rare Gandalf. We still don't have one and he is a pre-req for one of the campaignes. The third is another fig on my want list - Magneto, the character was just served so much good justice in sculpt dial and accuracy, just difficult to aquire The last is Onslaught.

So happy I have an Onslaught and have played him qiute a few times. I like the character. he is playable alone but very beatable, my most enjoyment with comes when I give him an army of Doom bots as minions, this is when he is a blast to play and provides an interesting challenge for your opponnent. The wild card doom bots provide X-men and FF team ability healing, enhancement, free movement tie up, and share armor keyword.

Things we didn't need would be a Hulk Gravity feed, we didn't need so many characters again. In my opinion scrap all of the fast forces figs and replace them with their gravity feed counter parts and taking out the generic for the red hulk (Generics in Fast forces suck). Speaking of generics did we really need as many kryptonian generics as we got (soldier, infiltrator and renegade) that fast forces slot could have been replaced by a Doomsday

Overall a great year and am highly excited for Galactic Guardians with new colossals, Thanos, Doom, and at least two remakes of my fav marvel hero - Silver Surfer

Glad you liked the cast....I wish my experiences with OnSlaught were more like yours. Unfortunately I build a lot of fun teams and my opponents tend to build completive teams where OnSlaught becomes a huge threat.

I live in Illinois, Gudda lives in Maryland. We record via the Skype. We each record separately and then the tracks are mixed together. However Gudda has a bad headset and it picks up my delay. We are working on fixing that. The Podcast has always had a casual feel to it as if it was just two guys talking about the game. The first several were recorded at the Game Store in MD where Gudda and I met. So we have kept that casual, 2 guys talking kinda feel.

Awesome, I agree with most of your comments and glad you liked the show....working on getting the front page player fixed. One of my top priorities for 2012.

Enjoyed this clixcast again guys.
I do enjoy the relaxed feel you guys give and look forward to more in 2012.

Agree with most of the best scuplts.
Mine would be:
1) Magneto
2) Colossus/Wolverine (agree with Gudda's thoughts on this)
3) Mighty Thorr (just looks awesome)
4) MODOK
5) Son of Darkseid Superman

Updates
MODOK is great and Magneto. Juggernaut also worthy but I like the Quasar the most. He went from okay to being a beast.

My favourite set was GSX. Accessible and playable which is great.

Great work with the song at the end, loved it.

for the record yes Caiera was on the MM poster, she had Iron Man's helmet on a spear and def like the 12 days of clixmas song

Thanks!

Yeah i was thinking that too Nate. But I am not sure if that was official or something I mocked up to promote the event and store.

Thanks!

My friends and I have a video we are gonna post on YouTube for our best of 2011. Should be pretty cool. Loved this cast. Listened to it like 8 times at work lol

Hi guys - any ETA on the next podcast? I'm interested to hear your impressions of the previewed Galactic Guardians and Avengers figures...
