Heroclix Overview 2017
I kept up with the Fast Forces/Starter sets another year. I didn’t get any of the new sets with the exception of a few western figures from Elseworlds to use for some western skirmish games. The dollar wasn’t too bad, I didn’t start picking up any of the new 40K sets, but did pick up a lot of the Marvel and DC Universe Miniature figures as well as a bunch of the Batman miniature game from Knight Models.
I did pick up some Heroclix in batches and was able to complete three more old sets and two newer ones. I finished Armor Wars, Secret Invasion, Arkham Asylum, Kick-Ass 2, and AVX – Avengers VS X-Men.
I continued my focus on completing the older WizKids sets.
With the figures I’ve picked up, I am now close on Ultimates (0+3), Mutant Mayhem (3+2), Legacy (0+3), Origin (4+0), Mutations & Monsters (1/3), Crisis (0/2), Hammer of Thor (3/8), Brave and Bold (8/7) and Batman Classic TV (3), and TMNT (3+3).
I didn’t get any of the older larger figures. My line on the Foom (with pants) did not pan out. I still need Spectre, both green Fooms, and both of the Phoenixes, as well as the original Manhattan and Galactus. I did pick up the Ameridroid.
Neca only put out another 8 sets in 2017, and another 6 Fast Forces sets. I didn’t collect any of these sets. I still kept up with the Fast Forces sets.
I now need an unreachable 2262 heroclix figures. Even winning the lottery, that would be a real challenge to get. I now need 1265 Marvel figures and 900 DC figures. My REV total is now 1782 and my Unique/SuperRare total is 454 plus 26 Giant figures and 13 Team bases.
But I have come to an acceptance of it. Not being concerned about completing all the Neca sets of which I need 2241 figures (1774 REV and 441 Super Rares) and focusing on completing the old WizKids sets of which I now only need 21 figures (8 REV and 13 Uniques). I will still get a few Necas as available especially the Undead set, and then switch to some of the smaller Gravity Feed sets.
That should free up some money for Games Workshop sets.
