DC HeroClix Brightest Day Aquaman and Osiris

With the Blackest Night Heroclix, NECA and WizKids started using digital sculpts to great effect – see their announcements for Mera and Hal Jordan, Lex Luthor, Scarecrow, the Atom, and Wonder Woman.

Now for Brightest Day, they’re following these up with a new seven-figure pack, including Aquaman and Osiris. For this scale, I think these show a lot of detail.

AFTER BLACKEST NIGHT COMES BRIGHTEST DAY! AQUAMAN & OSIRIS

The DC HeroClix Brightest Day Action Pack, available October 2010, is the follow-up product to the highly acclaimed DC HeroClix Blackest Night Starter Game. Tying in with DC Comics hit Brightest Day year-long series, the DC HeroClix Brightest Day Action Pack includes seven highly detailed HeroClix 3D figures ripped directly from the pages of the Brightest Day comic, plus an all-new, double-sided HeroClix map.

WizKids / NECA Announces Star Trek HeroClix

Two things are interesting to me about the announcement of Star Trek HeroClix. First, they talk about a digital component – I am not quite sure what that means, but if it means an online aspect to the game, that’d be pretty cool.

The second is something not stated in the release, but definitely something to watch for – if the line takes off, I’m wondering if we’ll get collosal game pieces for the Enterprise and other ships, like the Romulan Warbird or the Klingon Bird of Prey.

Heroclix Jonah Hex Press Pics

It’s nice to see Jonah Hex finally getting his due. Here’s some pics of upcoming Hex Heroclix (that’s got a nice ring to it), expected in August, to accompany the movie. Jonah Hex opens in a couple of weeks, on June 18.

The rumors are true!  Megan Fox Jonah Hex is finally coming to the HeroClix with the DC HeroClix Jonah Hex Battle Pack. The movie themed Battle Pack contains three brand new, figures: Jonah Hex, Lilah, and Turnbull!  The 3 fig Battle Pack is 100% HeroClix compatible and will be available mid-August.  Check your local game or comic store this fall.

BTW – These are actual production pieces (off the line).  I think they are some of the best eyes we’ve done to date.  Let me know what you think.

NECA Announces Web of Spider-Man HeroClix

Looks like with the Web of Spider-Man HeroClix series, you’ll get the chance to pick up a First Appearance Spider-Man HeroClix as some kind of mail-in promotion. I might have to pick up a HeroClix Deadpool and make a Marvel Legends Icons-sized Rhino to go with him. 😀
