Superman Robot
Hi everyone! Today we take a look at a… LE? I’m not
sure what it is… you get it by subscribing at Wizkid
magazine… I think :P Anyway, the guy I’m talking
about is… Superman Robot! Pretty cool to have on
heroclix, if you ask me.
Now we’ll be able to make some cool scenarios. But
is he any good? Let’s
see: For 100 points, you get 8 range 1 target, Supes
TA, 7 clicks of health,
and:
Stats:
Speed: 10, 10, 10, 9, 9, 8, 10. Starts with a click
of HSS, then follows 2
of Charge, then 2 of Flurry, one of nothing and a
last one of Running Shot
Attack: 10, 9, 9, 9, 8, 8, 8. Super Strength all the
way except the last
click, which is Psychic Blast.
Defense: 17, 16, 16, 15, 15, 14, 13. Toughness all
the way save for the last click, which has nothing.
Damage: 3, 3, 2, 2, 1, 2, 2. No Powers.
Analysis: Before anything else… cool sculpt!
Alrighty, into the figure… I’m not gonna say a lot
about him: he can be compared to Black Adam, but
also to the Bat’s Ally Supes (regarding how you
should play him) He has a better
opening click than Exp. Black Adam (same Speed
Attack and Damage… ok, he
lack CCE but how often do you use it? The difference
is in the defense. and
I gladly give away a 15 with Imp for a 17 with
Toughness)
Even when you compare him with the Vet., even with
that extra 1’s on Speed
and Attack, it has still the same defense… oh yeah,
he gets 1more click of
HSS… but at this point, he’s 50 points more
expensive… Not to mention the
range…even with the new change made to HSS; a 4
range with the Supes TA is a great option to have
(you know, besides having to go right next to your
opponent). If you can keep this guy on hindering
terrain, he’ll be an 18 to
shoot at, and that’s good considering the new lower
attacks. Beware though,
much like Batman Ally’s Supes you should never push,
and understand that if
he takes a hit he won’t land in his 2nd or 3rd
click, where he still can do
something… Finally, his last click is sweet, if you
ever land on it you can
either heal easily or make a nice last attack…
Conclusion: If you can play Black Adam (especially
the Exp) effectively, go
with this guy. If you cannot, stay far away.
Ranking:
100 – 3/5 He could do something here…
200 – 1.75/5 Hmm… not too good here.
300 – 3.5/5 I’d give it a try.
400+ – 2.5/5 Being a 1 click figure is a problem in
high point games.
Today we'll be reviewing Felix Faust from
Collateral Damage
Based on the robot’s Superman can build, he’s
missing his calling. Seriously he can build a Hyper
Sonic Robot, I’m thinking I’d rather have Supes cure
cancer then fight Braniac.
Experienced: 100 points, Superman Robot Team
MOVEMENT:
Hyper Sonic Speed on the first click. Nothing is
better! Then Charge, Flurry and Running Shot…what
more could you want? For a hundred points it’s
perfect.
ATTACK:
Hyper Sonic Speed and Super Strength, the Black Adam
combo that has won many world tournaments.
DEFENSE:
17 with toughness, I’ll take it. It’s not great,
but he’s a hundred points.
DAMAGE:
3 damage for 2 clicks worker well enough for Black
Adam.
SCULPT:
I’m using Superman Robot sculpt no matter what
Superman I’m using.
OVERALL:
Hypersonic Speed and Super Strength is the best
combo possible
10 attack and 17 defense is pretty darn good for the
points
This is the cheapest figure ever made with that
powerful of a power combo
He will have a 4 range when making a Hypersonic
Speed attack
Even with a 17 defense I would still rather have 15
with Impervious
I heard a 2 year Subscription to get 3 Supermen
Robots is $82. Pretty mean Wizkids.
You can use more then one, he’s not Unique or an LE
How in the world did they make this figure? 100
points for Experienced Black Adam! That is
fricken Ridiculous! But he’s actually better
then Black Adam, because this Superman Robot can
easily use Nanobots and he has a range. Beyond ALL
of that he has Superman Team ability so he can still
run through hindering terrain even if Crosswinds is
played. Plus he can pick off those pesky Stealthed
Characters. This is deceptively one of the most
powerful figures ever made in any set and will be in
the ranks of Lockjaw and Firelord. He will easily
make my top five best figures list, especially since
Nanobots will be king with the neutered healing.
SHE RECEIVES 5 + OUT OF A POSSIBLE 5
THUMBS UP! Perfect!
Good, Bad, I’m the Guy with the Clix
