I don't play Heroclix as a game. I re-base the figures to play my own games. That being said I love the line and credit Wizkids with an amazing production run that has spanned more than a decade.
Even after all of those years and figures, holes remain in the line. Here's a few characters I don't think they've done but need to do.
Ajak
Black Racer
Bloodscream
Boomslang
Box
Brother Voodoo (classic outfit)
Bushmaster
Defensor
The Digger (Night Shift Member)
Fer-de-Lance
The Fixer (classic green costume)
The Gremlin / Gargoyle (the dwarfish Soviet mutant)
Gronk
Gypsy Moth (Night Shift Member)
Helio
Mad Dog
Manslaughter
The Needle (Night Shift Member)
Phobius
Power Man (original 1960s villain)
Plant Man (Sam Smithers)
Ringer
Rock Python
Roughhouse
Overmind
Paibok (a poor man's Super-Skrull)
Tom Thumb
Tyger Tyger
Ulysses Bloodstone
Vanguard
Water Wizard
Woodgod
Can anyone add to this list? Got a favorite character who needs a figure?
-
Second on the Paibok, but also:
Infamous Iron Man
All Amalgam Characters
More Invincible Characters
Usagi Yojimbo
Good sculpts of the Warriors Three
Frog Man
A good sclupt of Old Man Logan
Old Man Hawkeye
BTAS Bane
Terrance Stamp as General Zod
Lord Death Man
Space Ghost
Plenty more Supers I want, but that's about it for things that have come in Clix.
-
Nice additions!
There is a pretty nice Frogman:
https://wizkids.com/heroclix/2016/08/10/marvel-heroclix-superior-foes-of-spider-man-frog-man/
I have him and he is great!
I thought of another one--the White Rabbit (a female Spider-Man villain).
-
Ajak was done last year in the Mighty Thor set and the Warriors Three had really nice sculpts in that set as well. Old Man Logan has a really good sculpt last year in Xavier's School. Frog Man was in Superior Foes of Spider-man in 2016. And hopefully Bane will be in the Batman the Animated Series set that comes out next month.

Have they done Aunt May as the Golden Oldie, Herald of Galactus? Or Herbie Popnecker, either in the Fat Fury costume or out?

I don't believe so. But they did make a Spider Ma'am from the What if? story where Aunt May got the powers instead of Peter.

Ooh, I'll have to get that one. Big fan of Aunt May in absurdist roles. Come to think of it, wasn't she also the Golden Oldie in that What If? where she got Iron Man armor? I seem to recall that being a thing. Make a better IM than Tony anyway - less likely to be drunk or have a random heart attack.
EDIT: Oh good, readily available on ebay. That's money well spent. Also, "Wheatcakes!" is now my new favorite saying. :)

Just curious if there is a place where you can find all the heroclix stat cards in one place? I am not a very creative person and I struggle with how to represent some characters in SMF so I lean on the 'clix stats to get me started (ie a character has very wide ranging/undefined powers, where do you start with skirmish abilities) and I rely on low res photos from the web.
Am I missing a simple place to go and find these?

www.hcrealms.com and click on the units link. Be forewarned though that since Heroclix is based upon 2d6 many characters have similar attack and defense values in the range of 9 to 11 for attack and 16 to 19 for defense. And the majority of the super powers are represented by using a set number of 48 powers and abilities.

No worries, I imagine they are trying to fit the game rules in same way SMF is. Like I say, I only need help getting started, like boiling down what is important for a skirmish.
Thanks for the link!

Glad I could help.

As an aside I just ordered both Super-Adaptoids (the cool giant one and the small featureless one) and Ajak from eBay. :D
-
Super-Adaptoid is awsome. Lets see how you rate him Scoot. Could he be a Titan?
Super Adaptoid always reminded me of DC's Amazo, and there is a figure Heroclix has not made!

This should make you happy.

WOW!
I didn't know that!
Thanks
Kim
-
Nice Amazo's!
If I had to stat Super-Adaptoid I'd likely make him a Super.
Gets me more into the new Construct rules we're working on. ;)
-
Thought of another couple:
Interloper
Overmind
Circus of Crime?
-
There is a Ringmaster and Princess Python.
-
There is a Ringmaster and Princess Python.
I have Princess P., I need to get Ringmaster. But I would like to see:
-- The Clown
-- Cannonball
-- Strongman (maybe in Horrorclix?)
-- Gambinos (the acrobat dudes)
Mainly the Clown, though. After all, Ghost Rider did burn him with hellfire. ;D
-
There are a couple of Clowns in Horrorclix, anything close enough?
-
Scott,
Reaper has a Strongman and clowns. The others are easy converts
What I want to see is
Awkward Man
Dumb Bunny
Merry Man
White Feather
Blimp
The Inferior Five!
Kim
-

Not sure. I will have a look on eBay, but as I recall, those clowns are pretty monstrous. The Clown from the CoC is pretty much a dumpy dude in a clown outfit. But I will investigate and see. Thanks!
I'll try to attach the cover of the Ghost Rider issue that I had as a kid that featured the Circus.
P.S. Also for forgot the Fire Eater dude. He may be an easier get than the others.
-
The fire breather from Horrorclix would seem to make a good CoC fire eater, and would some of the Wrecking Crew make good substitutes for cannonball?
-
With a head-swap, Brother
Grimm would make decent Gambinos.
-
That Horrorclix Fire-Eater is an ace figure! I think he'll work!
-
A proper Image Comics set would be nice. I have the Invincible set, but there are plenty more great characters in the newer Image stuff that aren't out there in any form.
-
Astounding Wolf-Man?
-
For Marvel, Texas Twister is another one that needs done, but I have an idea for a conversion that I will elaborate on when I have more time.
-
Two more just came to mind:
Ulysses Bloodstone
Kangaroo
-
I'm sure I've seen a Ulysses Bloodstone somewhere... I have Elsa.

There's no Ulysses Bloodstone that I know of. In my mind, any version of him would need to feature the Safari jacket with the exposed chest showing the embedded star-gem in his chest.
If I have not mentioned him already, Serpent Society loser Boomslang is another one who needs done.
-
So my buddy is working on a Roughhouse conversion for me (more on that in a later post), but I need to work on his sometime partner, Bloodscream.
My plan is to use a Heroclix Foot Ninja for the body, do a hand swap, then find an appropriate head. I'll attach a few images for clarity. But the head is what I need a source for.
Can anybody think of a good head option? Maybe another Clix somewhere, or a Dark Eldar head?
Thanks!
-
The Hypno-Hustler is crying out for a miniature.

I converted Water Wizard last year for Forgotten Heroes.

-
Your conversion inspired me to do my own! I am at work for a couple days, but when I get home, I'll snap a pic and share it.
-
How about a Heroclix Gideon head for Bloodscream? It's cheap enough on the secondary market to not feel too bad about beheading it.
(http://angrypiper.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/gs024f.jpg)
You'd just need to sculpt some shades.
-
Here's a link to my SMF tumblr:
https://supermissionforce.tumblr.com/
It has pics of my Bloodscream, Water Wizard, and Bushmaster conversions.
I need to make an order for the newly released official Bushmaster, but I still like mine. ;)
Thanks!
-
LOVE that Bushmaster! What did you use?
Also, you've inspired me to create a Tumblr. Beware!

I used a Bones Medusa lower body. For the upper body I used a DC Heroclix Kryptonian character. I made his claws from odd bits of plastic.
As to the Tumbler--wow! Yes! If you can come up with some good Clix to work with, please let me know!
-
I updated the list with a few more names. It is still woefully incomplete.
Feel free to offer any more suggestions for additions.
That being said, I am so pleased at the new stuff in the Earth X set. The Enforcers, Tinkerer, and Stegron are excellent additions to the available optionns!
-
I keep hoping for more Vertigo offerings Sandman (Morpheus), Preacher, V for Vendetta and Hell Blazer lines.
-
I want a re-sculpted Bi-Beast. The one done for Clix right now is too shrimpy to do the character any justice.
On the DC side I'd like to see a Super Friends era Braniac.
-
A conversion I started but have on the back burner right now as I finish up some other projects is a giant version of the High Evolutionary. I always dug that character--one of the few guys I know that could go toe to toe with Galactus. Heck all the knights of wundagore would make fine additions as well!

They need to do this! I loved the Evolutionary War annual storyline.
