What's with the very last Batman's half green/half black damage square?

[strangerx]

Wow, I'm surprised you got this up as fast as you did. Glad to see it's up.

IIRC, that's the old Mage Knight starting point, rather than just the green line used to represent the starting point for the figure.

[Eric J. Moreels]

Yep, you're right xgene. Green on damage indicates the start position, and if it's a split-color, as in the case of the promo Batman, the other color indicates a super-power (which in the promo Batman's case is Outwit for that first click).

And stranger, I had been collecting stats for the figures since their debut at US conventions. I also gathered a bunch of images off eBay, as I planned to release the Guide before WizKids put up their complete figure gallery. I decided to hold off and double-check the stats against what WizKids posted on their site, as well as to get the far better quality pics.

So all the structure for the Guide was there, I just had to make a few changes before I released it today! :)

Ah, cool. Thanks gene:)

[Tom 2TUM Toner]

very awesome

[Eric J. Moreels]

The Guide for the Riddler is correct - Riddler's Mastermind power was printed in error and as such the figure has Shape Change. This will likely be noted in a Corrections document for DC 'Clix.

[Eric J. Moreels]

Oh of course it makes more sense for Riddler to have Mastermind, but thanks to the misprint on the dial he doesn't.

And the tips in the Figure Gallery at the WizKids site haven't taken into account the fact that the figure's dial was misprinted, so I'm still pretty positive we'll see an official correction issued.

[Eric J. Moreels]

The stats for the above Guide were compiled from reports by fans who'd bought figures at the US conventions. As such, it was done before WizKids posted their figure gallery.

So no, it's nor "according to" me at all. It's according to stats submitted by fans.

I haven't yet had the chance to go through their gallery and double-check their stats against the ones I was informed of.

And what's this 2-0 rubbish? It's not a contest, you know.

[Eric J. Moreels]

What's contradictory about that?

[ThePope]

This is totally awesome and helpful. Is there any chance that the LE's will be added to this? I don't have any, so I can't help you out with the stats, but I'm sure somebody can. Also one correction, Veteran Superman is a member of the JLA.


Does anybody else use this to build their armies?

[Eric J. Moreels]

LE's will definitely be added to the Guide once I've got the stats for all of them. Currently I need the stats for Eddie Nashton (Riddler), Ted Kord (Blue Beetle), and Michael Jon Carter (Booster Gold).

[Eric J. Moreels]

I've just updated the Guide with the stats for all the DC Limited Edition figures (except for the "Our Worlds at War" Superman)!

[Wolverine]

Thanks for the guide. its really helpful

[Eric J. Moreels]

Just updated the DC Guide with the stats for the "Our Worlds At War" Superman LE and the giant-size Sinestro figure!

[Eric J. Moreels]

And again, updated the guide with stats and pics for the Cosmic Justice expansion, including the LEs that will debut at this year's Origins!

[Eric J. Moreels]

Updated once again with pics and stats for the remaining Cosmic Justice LEs!

[brunt_fca_2000]

Couldn't open the link to the DC guide or find a link for a Cosmic Justice Guide. Any reason why?

[Eric J. Moreels]

I've just updated the article with a link to the second DC Guide that begins with the Unleashed expansion set. Just click the link to download!

[Plastic_Paladin]

I cannot seem to use your links. They print out as code on my end and the file name stops as:

http://www.comixfan.com/xfan/guides/Unofficial%20DC%20<font%20color

I've tried a few times to get the file name correct, plugging it in myself, but I can't seem to quite figure it out. Is it possible that you could post the full file name for me?

Thanks,

-Pp

[Plastic_Paladin]

I managed to get the address to the file name correct and to download the guide but your links still don't work for me.

Thanks for the great guide, though . . .

-Pp

[Eric J. Moreels]

Try using Internet Explorer to download them. They're working fine when tested.

[Eric J. Moreels]

Just updated the second DC Guide to include complete stats/pics for the new Legacy expansion. Enjoy!

[Eric J. Moreels]

Added a third guide featuring the new Icons expansion!

[TheLe]

This is just a FANTASTIC resource.

Great work.

Will this be getting updated with Collateral damage?

Thanks.

[Eric J. Moreels]

Will this be getting updated with Collateral damage?

My plate's pretty full these days, but I will get to updating the Guide to include Collateral Damage, Giants, and others as soon as possible!
