This is a nice choice for a convention exclusive. Colossal figures inspire many different reactions from both players and buyers, and the character already exists in several other versions in Heroclix: 1 good 616 Giant Man, and 5 older REV/LE/Exclusive Ant-Man figures.

I'd like a set for my collection, but it doesn't make me sad that it is a convention exclusive.

Wow, awesome. Yet more figs that 99% of clix players won't be able to get. What a great idea!

Absolutely love the sculpt for Giant-Man. Unfortunately, no chance of getting to a convention so I guess it's secondary market for me

While I understand that the "invisible" figure means he's smaller than the eye can see, the concept of just releasing a dial is pointless to me. At the very least, couldn't there have been like a pedestal with a very small Ant-Man on it?

I guess I'm gonna continue to complain in every Con Exclusive preview thread, about not being able to get the Con exclusive figures, because I can't make it to conventions.

I'm happy to see a new Giant-Man made. Is there an actual Ant-Man figure, or is it like Shrinking Violet.

I am, in a word, crestfallen...

Awesome....can't wait..love Hank..He's on FIRE!!!

It's sort of like my past is an unfinished painting, and as the artist of that painting, I must fill in all the ugly holes and make it beautiful again.

Love they made a colossal hank, I've been expecting it since the very first sentinel fig. Disappointed it's yet another convention exclusive but hopeful it'll be easier to get than other ones
