Heroclix

Intro

Since 2003, the HeroClix line from WizKids has been coming out about annually. HeroClix is a sort of role-playing game but instead of keeping track of stats on paper, the stats are on a click wheel at the base of each figure.

The characters have powers and team affiliations that vary with their experience levels: Rookie, Experience, and Veteran (R, E, and V), and you can do more stuff (or do it better) the higher up you are. Some of them even have "Unique" or "Special Edition" figures, even more powerful. Each experience level comes with its own color (yellow = Rookie, blue = Experienced, red = Veteran, silver = Unique, bronze = Special Edition from the box, gold = Super Rare from a tournament win) painted in a ring around each base. Each figure has a dial that lists the attributes so you don't have to remember anything, and you rotate the dial to show hits, etc., Figures from the same team get benefits.

The various series of HeroClix have been released in waves, typically once per year. Legion-related figures have been seen in nearly all lines to date. Over the years, we've seen Legionnaires and their villains in their pre-Crisis, post-Zero Hour, and post-Infinite Crisis incarnations. In some cases, figures are released in both their code name and civilian names, or with different code names depending on rank.

Heroclix Waves

Note: The name listed below is for the version of the character as defined by the costume. Some figures were released with different and chronologically inappropriate code-names for a given costume (such as the 2006 release of Shadow Lass and Umbra in the Umbra costume, or the 2007 release of Mon-El, Valor, and M'Onel with the M'Onel costume).
