Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Official Legion HeroClix Thread

So... I managed to get this Legion Clix Starter on German ebay for under 20 Euros, well that's okay... though I played Heroclix just once in my life (at a convention when it was first shown to the public) and have a rather lacklustre group of figurines (the three Legion founders, Starfire, Booster and Beetle, Hal Jordan, Hulk, Scarlet Witch...), I really hope that now that I get a new rules book (lost the old ones years ago), I finally will get to actually PLAY this stuff

Tell me, are there any Booster Packs planned for the Legion set or is it a new way to publish this stuff via fixed starters? Last time I watched, you did not see what you were getting before buying. But then I saw an X-Men starter this spring, so... is there more cool stuff to be bought soon?

gotta bring it back today since the WizKids revealed one figure for the Crisis Set sneak peek - its a remade of ............

MORDRU!!!

here's the link - enjoy!

AT LAST!!!!!! DAWNSTAR is here!!!!!

check out the link:

enjoy

And it's a kick-ass sculpt. She's a bit weak on the hitting power, but she's really not a front line player anyway. Her special power gives her whole team +1 to hit versus a single opponent for the game, though, which doesn't suck.
She'll be a lot of fun to play.

and plus Willpower! The legion figures desperately need that to go with Cosmic Boy and the contigency plan...whoa....more power to them. Now Dawnstar - I cannot wait to have her to go with Wildfire, Mon-El, and Ultra Boy as seen in picture a few posts above (the one by Lightning Lad)...The legion are becoming more and more powerful and better!

I just got the LSH Starter set from eBay yesterday for display purposes only. Since I know nothing about Heroclix my question is this: Are the other LSH Heroclix figures (from "Legacy," "Crisis," etc.) the same size as the figures found in the starter pack? Thanks!

Yes they are all mostly the same size - Brainiac 5, Saturn Girl, Live Wire, Cosmic Boy, Kid Quantum, Wildfire, Supergirl, Superboy, Chameleon, Colossal Boy (Gaint size), Shadow Lass, Triplicate Girl, Mon-El/Valor, Bouncing Boy, Dream Girl, and Dawnstar....although Colossal Boy is a Giant and both of him and Dawnstar do not have a flight stand. so the sizes are mostly in scale.

Same with Villains - Validus is a giant...while the rest are the same...

Updated: CRISIS finish off the whole list and will be out on Feb. 27th - Dawnstar, Mordru, and Karate Kid are the ones representing the Legion lore - as for Karate Kid's figure and dial - please check this link out -

FAIR warning: alot of heroclix fans were not happy with Karate Kid's sculpture because they mostly felt that it misrepresented KK. *sigh* Same thing with Matter-Eater Lad as a pog - a lot of fans were *FURIOUS* that ME Lad did not get clixed.

for ME Lad's pog - check the link -

Okay, so this is kind of exciting...I don't know much about Heroclix, though - being a collector of all things LSH, I simply buy the figures on eBay because, well, they're little statues of Legionnaires, and look pretty cool on a shelf.

My question: "pog"? what is "pog"? does this mean there won't be an actual figure of Matter-Eater Lad? I noticed they only had a picture of his card on the Heroclix website...I was hoping that they just hadn't updated it yet...but are you saying that the "card" is it for him?

Yes, the "pog" is just the token on the card. The proper game term for them is "Bystander Token", but they are almost universally known as pogs. They are used either as filler, or for special scenarios (protect/capture the bystander), though some have useful abilities (Alfred has the Batman Team ability). There was already a generic "Legionnaire" pog representing one of the kids from the plaza. Traditionally pogs have been used for supporting cast members.

Thanks for the info...

...but rats!

Matter-Eater Lad, a mere supporting character?!?
He gets no respect!

Dawnstar Heroclix page

I got Mordru recently but it looks like this Dawny piece might be hard to come by, according to a different Heroclix page it's already sold out.
..bummer..



..and this one's for Lash Lad!! Alas there's no figure for it (yet) just the card.

You forgot one more - Karate Kid!! As for Dawnstar - because she is very popular and people wants her on their team because she's good!

Oops! I see you already linked the MEL card, sweet, thanks!

Anywho...I got the KK figure in the Legion starterpack last summer so I didn't mention him here but in searching for those images I found out that's there's an entirely different Mordru figure out there

Cool oldskool Mordru!

heroclix legion starter pack...is this grouping that has a young superman, is this reboot, threeboot, or classis, it has to be classic despite the threeboot costumes right?

The grouping uses Threeboot costumes, but it is based on the members from the cartoon.

The biographies on the character cards are all Threeboot as well (i.e Imra can't speak and Garth let the U.P. take over the team). Although the "First Appearances" boxes all list the Classic issues.

New Legion Heroclix. However, it may not be the Legion you might expect...

Wizkids Arkham Asylum set comes out in October and includes the following Legion figures:

• Cosmic King
• Lightning Lord
• Saturn Queen
• Element Lad

I can't wait to see how they represent Cosmic King and E-Lad.
(Thanks for the move to the official thread; didn't find it when I searched yesterday)

and Superboy-Prime too.

as for the LSV founders, I am so thrilled to see them in Heroclix. I have been asking and asking for a long time and finally they're here!

so my next Legion villain target will be: Grimbor and Universo, Khunds and Dominators/Dark Circle. I am gonna work harder to convince the Heroclix manufacturers to make them in clix.

whoa i didn't realize there were limited edition versions of them!!! my podcast-cohort and i have amassed pretty much...ALL of the legion related heroclix. twice. and then a third time i think. (one for each of us so we don't kill each other in our sleep in jealousy, and then she requires one to put away and keep pristine since she's insane).

so i'm REALLY excited about more heroclix to feed my desire.

we don't play heroclix either, we have absolutely no idea how. we just like having tiny figures of the legionnaires. we make them kiss each other sometimes. i secretly REALLY want a starro because i think starro is adorable looking but the stupid thing is rare and huge and expensive =___=!! every time we buy them, we're offered the little cards that you need for the game, and they look confused and little sad that we don't want them at all. "no no, you see, we have to make garth carefully hold hands with cos."

i'm finding it a pain to find a place for them, so if anyone knows good storage/case set ups that are good for heroclix, please share.

Cosmic King's picture is out now...go to the link:

enjoy!

I've got an up-to-date Heroclix list on the Legion Wiki at http://www.legionwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Heroclix

well they left out Superboy-Prime! grr.

Bumping this thread up as someone on Legionworld Facebook side said they hadn't seen this thread and didn't know what figures were made yet.

UPDATED INFO: the set called DC 75th Anniversary will be on sale on Dec. 15th and will consist of several Legion-related: Dominator Soldiers, Caste-Ruling Dominator, Superboy, and Bart Allen. that's it. Yeah that s all.

the players who play Heroclix are complaining about the lack of the Legion members in the past two sets...so perhaps the next one due in July...rumored to be a heavy Superman-theme...may include some Legionnaires..such Starboy, Sun Boy, Ferro Lad...but who knows?
