Galactus And His Herald Commeth

oscam5 lets us know about some upcoming convention exclusives from Wizkids for thier Marvel HeroClix game.

Behold, mortal entities: Galactus, the eater of worlds. Older than the universe and more powerful than any other being, Galactus is the ultimate centerpiece of a Marvel HeroClix collection. Standing more than 16” tall, with a base that occupies 18 squares on a standard HeroClix map, Galactus is playable either as a one (or more) person scenario, or as a regular piece in the HeroClix game.



But how much fun would Galactus be without some friends? To accompany the Mighty One at summer conventions are two exciting Limited Edition pieces, fully playable in any game of Marvel HeroClix.

The first is the Silver Surfer as the Herald of Galactus. The perfect compliment to Big Purple, Silver Surfer is 200 points and also has the Power Cosmic team ability. He starts off quick with a speed of 12, and slows down after a couple of hits as his damage hops up to 4 with an attack of 11 and a nice dose of Impervious. Even though he’s Galactus’ thrall, this Surfer still plays well with others, and gains Support and Regeneration near the end of his dial – roll correctly, and you’ll Regenerate right to the sweet spot. Of course, the Power Cosmic means those pesky Outwitters won’t bother the Surfer, either. We’ve rounded off the new Norrin with a coat of shiny, chrome-silver paint, making him literally sparkle in Galactus’ shadow.



Also available is Invisible Woman, who’s so invisible you can’t see her at all! Weighing in at 50 points with the Fantastic Four team ability, she sports an 18 defense with Defend, Stealth, and Energy Explosion with a range of 6, making her an excellent supporting piece for any team.



Galactus, Invisible Woman and the Silver Surfer LEs will be available in the WizKids booth at selected summer conventions. For more information about these, Click here
