Welcome to another HeroClix post. With the news this week there were previews of Swamp Thing, Earth Man and Eradicator from the Superman set; Sgt. Johnson, ODST, Flood Infection, Infected Elite and "Master Chief and Arbiter from the Halo set; and The Comedian from the Watchmen Fast Forces box set. However we do not get a full view of Eradicator for some reason. A keyword, his trait and his bio are blurred out. Something tells is going to happen to him is the comics soon (before the release of the set) and the blurred parts would have reviled it.
I was not at HeroClix this week due to a splitting headache that I had all day. I do nor know if did happen or not. If it did happen I will post the team I was plan on next week's post. This week's post will be a DreamClix special. For this week's DreamClix I will be doing dial ideas for Yuti, Tara Brooks, Solanin and Jararl from the Blade anime; Madripool Biker from the Wolverine anime; Mary from One Piece; Jackie Chun from Dragon Ball; and Inari from Naruto. But first we have the dial designs for Takeo, Armor and Professor X from the X-Men anime; Tabane Shinonono from IS: Infinite Stratos; the Liz and Party duo from Soul Eater; Buchi from One Piece; and Tazuna from Naruto.
Next we have Yuti from the Blade anime. Yuti is the wife of Agus who was turned into a vampire. Yuti and the other villagers that where turned in vampires had the ability to stretch their limbs in a snake like manner. This figure is meant to be these vampires than just Yuti, however as they did not reveal the vampire type name, I will call then by her name for now. They should have Plasticity and a special called "Entangled".
Entangled: Yuti can use Incapacitate but only as a close combat attack. If the attack hits the target's values are reduced by one until the begin of your next turn or when this character is no longer adjacent to the target.
They should have about four clicks of health and starting values or Movement 8, Attack 9, Defense 17, Damage 3 and Range 2 with one target. They should not have a TA and there keywords should be Existence and Monster.
Next is Tara Brooks from the Blade anime. Tara Brook is the mother of Eric Brooks aka Blade. On a little bit of reading up on Blade, Marvel's profile of Blade states that his mother was never named, but everywhere else states she was called Tara. Now is the Marvel doing a crap job on their character bios or fans using the name from a none comic source like the movies or the anime. In the anime she was killed by Blade after she killed his foster mum (and her best friend) as Blades vampire powers were about to awaken. She should have Leap Climb and Hunger.
Hunger: When Tara makes a close combat attack against a character that are not on their starting click, she gains a +1 to her attack value.

| Solanin |
She should have four clicks of health and starting values of Movement 9, Attack 9, Defense 17, Damage 3 and Range 0. She should not have a TA and her keyword should be Monster.
Next is Solanin from the Blade anime. Solanin is the manager of one of Deacon Frost's silver mines. He should have Hyper Sonic, Toughness, Super Senses, Leadership and Sharp Change. He should have about six clicks of health and starting values of Movement 10, Attack 10, Defense 18, Damage 3 and Range 0. He should not have a TA and keywords of Existence and Monster.
Next is Jararl from the Blade anime. Jararl is an arms dealer and manufacture that was selling silver weapons to Deacon Frost for his war against the Pure Bloods. Jararl wants to move up in Madripool, from Lowtown to Hightown where the Dragon Palace is. He should have a Trait called "Man in Charge", Blades, Toughness, Range Combat Expert, +3 to the Grenade Pool and Frag Grenades.
Man in Charge: Jararl can use Leadership and Perplex.
He should have about five clicks of health and starting values of Movement 8, Attack 10, Defense 17, Damage 2 and Range 6 with one target. He should have the Hydra TA and keywords A.I.M., Existence and Madripool.
Next we have a Madripool Biker from the Wolverine anime. Yes the Wolverine anime. After watching episode 7 of Blade were he teams up with Wolverine in Madripool I realised I could bulk out the Wolverine set a little more. There will be two new Madripool genetics. This week is Madripool Biker and next week will be Madripool Grenader which will use the new grenade rules from Gears of War and Halo HeroClix. The Madripool Bikers should have the Transporter symbol, a trait called "Ammo Run", a minion power called "Hit and Run", Toughness and a end dial Earth Bound.
Ammo Run: At the start of game all characters that add to the Grenade Pool add one extra. (Note +0 counts too).
Hit and Run: Minion - If there is a character with the Madripool keyword and a higher points cost than this figure within eight squares, Madripool Biker can use Frag Grenades and use the grenades as part of a Move and Attack action.
They should have about four or five clicks of health and starting values of Movement 12, Attack 9, Defense 16, Damage 2 and Range 6 with one target. They should not have a TA and their keywords should be Madripool and Vehicle.
Next is Merry from One Piece. Merry is Kaya's loyal servant and was the one who designed the Straw Hat's first ship the Going Merry. Merry should have a trait called "Supporter of the Straw Hats" and a special called "The Going Merry".
Supporter of the Straw Hats: If Kaya and Usopp is apart of you force Merry gains the Straw Hat Crew keyword.
The Going Merry: Merry can use Perplex. He can use only on friendly characters and if he targets Movement he can modify it by +2.
He should have three clicks of health and starting values of Movement 6, Attack 8, Defense 15, Damage 1 and Range 0. He should not have a TA and the keyword Citizen.
Next is Jackie Chun from Dragon Ball. When Master Roshi wanted to test his students skills and to make sure they did not get big heads from winning tournament, he entered it in a disguise as Jackie Chun. This version of Master Roshi should be heavy close combat designed. He should have Plasticity, Flurry, Incapacitate, Super Senses, Combat Reflexes, Range Combat Expert, Close Combat Expert and a special called "Martial Arts Master".
Martial Arts Master: One per turn, if Jackie Chun is the target a Flurry or Combat Expert attack, remove one action token from him at the end of the action.
He should have about seven clicks of health and starting values of Movement 8, Attack 10, Defense 18, Damage 3 and Range 6 with one target. His TA should be the Dragon Ball one and his keyword should be Martial Artist.
Lastly is Inari from Naruto. Inari is the grandson of Tazuna. His real father died before he got to know him, but he came to see Kaiza as a father figure. Kaiza took a fatherly role in Inari's life and even became close to Tsunami, Inari's mother and Tazuna's daughter. When Gatõ put Kaiza to death, Inari changed. He became a sad and angry boy. However Naruto snapped him out of it. Inari should have a last click of Leadership and a special called "Assistant Bridge Builder".
Assistant Bridge Builder: If Inari is adjacent to Tazuna, Tazuna can place three Bridge tokens instead of two when using his "Bridge Builder" ability.
He should have three clicks of health and starting values of Movement 8, Attack 7, Defense 15, Damage 1 and Range 0. He should not have a TA and his keywords should be Citizen and Kid.
Well that is it for this week, until next time have fun.
