In this Box Breaking Matt busts Giant Man out of his prison. This box breaking is a little longer than most because we take a look at the dials.

Thanks for watching. Let us know if you think we could have done something different. The height of the figure in relation to the dial was a bit of a challenge.

While at Gen Con 2012 we visited with the WizKids crew. They were happy to pull out the Batman figs for us (and others around). I like where the game seems to be going and with all of the super hero RPG’s. This set is going to be a great addition to the scene. Batman No Man’s Land is scheduled for a November release.

Let’s take a look at some of these guys.

Oh my! It’s E.T. I was shocked to see these guys. I really don’t know more than what you see, but they are cool.

The Price of Infamy

$ 19.99 SRP

Slated for August

The adventurers now have their own island and port, but they’ll need more than one ship to defend it. They must scour the harbors and docks of the Shackles to recruit more ships and more crews to their flag. But when a rival from their past sends a fleet to attack them, they must defend their island home. And when they sail to his island to get their revenge, the adventurers discover a traitor whose betrayal threatens all of the islands of the Shackles. “The Price of Infamy” is a Pathfinder Roleplaying Game adventure for 11th-level characters. This volume continues the Skull & Shackles Adventure Path, delving into the secrets of the deadly cult of Norgorber, god of thieves and assassins, along with presenting new rules for battles between whole pirate fleets. New monsters from the depths of the sea and exotic islands fill the Pathfinder Bestiary, while Robin D. Laws (author of the Pathfinder Tales novel The Worldwound Gambit) continues his tale of pirates and lost treasures in the Pathfinder’s Journal.

So Wizkids is getting ready to move into another DC expansion for the Heroclix game system. Before I say anything here is a picture

I really like where WizKids is going with their sculpts. I believe they have increased the quality of their figures since their original conception. I also like the fact that they seem to be personifying the movies more than they used.

They are also giving away away a free Thor on Free Comic book day, at participating locations. If you haven’t seen him yet here he is.

Galactic Guardians Preview

The brother of Umar and uncle of Doctor Strange’s beloved Clea, Dormammu can be played at either 600 or 250 points. When used at the lower point value, Dormammu begins his dial on click 10. Dormammu possesses the Deity, Mystical, and Ruler keywords at his 250-point level. At 600 points, he also gains the Future keyword.

Dormammu hits the battle map with a trait, Lord of the Dark Dimension, which allows him to use Probability Control. To show that Dormammu has dominion over the Dark Dimension, the trait also allows friendly characters to ignore damage that is dealt by the Mystics team ability!
