WizKids is back and we’re hitting the ground running! Our first HeroClix release - Marvel HeroClix: Hammer of Thor - features one of the strongest character lineups ever, and we have upcoming projects we’re itching to tell you about.
Our retail partners are an integral part of the HeroClix. Organized Play is key to driving your HeroClix sales - information about our ongoing Organized Play program will be released soon. With the release of Marvel HeroClix: Hammer of Thor we invite you to help us reignite our loyal community of players and acquire new consumers with the Marvel HeroClix: Hammer of Thor Organized Play (OP) Kit.
WizKids’ Marvel HeroClix: Hammer of Thor Organized Play Kit features the following changes:
- Events no longer need to be recorded or reported.
- Stores are not required to have an envoy present to run an event. However, we invite retailers to use all available resources to run a successful event (including envoys), and the OP
Kit includes material to reward such assistance.
- Stores purchase Marvel HeroClix: Hammer of Thor Organized Play (OP) Kits directly from their distributor.
- OP Kits will be available at the same time as the Hammer of Thor boosters, which means stores can run HeroClix events with unique prize support on release day!
The OP kit does include a suggested tournament schedule and prize distribution format. However, store owners ultimately determine how the events will run and how the kits are used.
The Marvel HeroClix: Hammer of Thor Organized Play (OP) Kit, available from your distributor, is packed with these awesome Hammer of Thor OP items:
- 15 Limited Edition figures (3 copies of 5 different figures)
- 13 3-D objects (10 heavy objects & 3 special objects.)
- 9 event dials ( 3 copies of 3 different event dials)
- 9 feats (3 copies of 3 different feats)
- 6 alternate team ability cards (6 copies of 1 card)
- 3 battlefield condition cards (3 copies of 1 card)
- 10 Maps (24”X36”)
- 1 Instruction Sheet
Make sure to tell your distributor you want to order the Marvel HeroClix: Hammer of Thor OP Kit for your customers and bring HeroClix tournaments back into your store!
