Holy Heroclix Batman!
Holy Heroclix, indeed! Here's the new pride and joy of my Heroclix Collection--
Ooooo! Can't wait to get this out of the box! |
For my money there's no Batmobile quite as cool as the classic 1966 TV version. Now HeroClix has launched a fully playable version, and what a sweet ride she is, too!
When I saw her I had to have her, and now she is the showpiece of my HeroClix collection.
Just look at this baby!
From the distinctive nose and grille work
To the sleek lines of her profile
Fins, afterburners and drogue chutes,
Who could ask for anything more?
Wouldn't you love to jump in and take her for a spin?
Is there a more recognizable vehicle in the world?
Plus, she's fully playable either as a piloted or autopiloted vehicle once you slip her on to her HeroClix base. There's even some optional campy signage for effect.
Here are the specs. You can take a closer look at them on the HeroClix website.
Heroclix '66 Batmobile Specs
But what would the Batmobile be without the Caped Crusaders?
I can't wait to collect them all!
You can check out some shots of the the "66 Heroclix Batmobile over on Anaglyphopolis!

The Mikey Beast
"X-Men Days of Future Past" is about to swing into production and we've just gotten a glimpse of an older Hank McCoy, A.K.A. "the Beast."
Hey! He's going gray too! |
A mutant after my own heart, he's a beast molded on the Beauty and the Beast archetype. He's a brilliant scholar, scientist and artist with a sense of humor and a fear of rejection by society. Yep. Mikey can relate.
Why so serious? |
Never make Cookie Monster angry. |
In previous X-Men movies the Beast was portrayed by Kelsey Grammar. In "X-Men First Class," Nicholas Hoult plays the big blue guy. He'll reprise the role in the upcoming "Days of Future Past."
I decided it was Time for me to take a turn as Big Blue.
Hey, where's Wolverine? |
Mikey Beast |
Hey! Not too shabby if I say so myself. Such a menacing look. So powerful... So primal... But...
Aw Man! Give a mutant the heads up when his junk is hanging out. |
C'mon Guys! Quit chasing me. I'm having a hard time catching my breath. |
I'm afraid this would be my fate.
Still-- If Sesame Street and Avatar taught us anything, big blue guys are always a hit with the ladies!
COOKIES! |

Blown Away Team
I love HeroClix. I love HeroClix even more now that they have Star Trek figures. But I'm confused about something. What the heck are these guys? They're labeled as Star Trek Tactics but it doesn't make any sense to battle them against starships. The packaging says that they follow the same rules and use the same powers and abilities cards as regular HeroClix but I've read online that they are not compatible or allowed to be played in some tournaments. What's up with that? I've also read that they are a set for the stand alone game Star Trek Expeditions but the figures didn't come with that game or those rules and it wasn't even mentioned on the box. So what's up with that? I'm so confused but I love them anyway.
