Leaf piles

  • Bricks will be 9 boosters: 8 regular 5 piece boosters and a giant sized booster (twice as large as a normal booster.

(Updated 9/9/10) WoS Brick figure redemption site goes Live 9/9/10

UPDATE 10:18 pm, 09/09/2010

In a very open move, Justine posted that there would be a bit of a delay, so that all the kinks can be worked out with their distribution partner, Alliance.

Here is a quick update on the redemption system.  I am going to delay the go-live of the redemption system until I have a chance to a walk through with our fulfillment partners at Alliance games.  Ordinarily, I’d roll the dice and kick the system live but on something as important as redemption, I would prefer to make sure all the stakeholders are comfortable with the system.  A small issue can quickly turn into a large issue when 2000 redemption hit the system at once.
Read the whole announcement, that includes a it about the return of setting us User accounts with Wikids, HERE.


Original Post

Justin posted a note today wanting everyone to know that the redemption site for the Web of Spider-man Buy the Brick figure will be active starting Thursday, 9/9/10.

this is to make sure that all stores in all regions have product to sell  (and therefore UPC's for customers to redeem) after the long holiday weekend.

Head here: http://heroclix.com/buyitbythebrick/  tomorrow!


Web of Spider Man has swung in!

Today marks the release of Marvel HeroClix: Web of Spider-man.  Last night 2 of our great local venues celebrated with midnight releases, tournaments, prizes and fun!

If you were able to attend great! If not, no worries, the regular series of events begins this week at all of the venues.  Friday Nights at The Griffon on Colfax, downtown. Sunday afternoons at BuyMeToys.com in University Commons on SR 23 and on Thursdays at Fantasy Games on 933, just north of the Toll Road (or south of Niles depending on your trip in).

The prize kits for Web of Spider Man are looking pretty interesting with 5 different LE figures and 3D versions of the webbing tokens to be used with characters that get the Webbing ability.  (You can always use Special tokens from the started to note them if you miss out though).

The Event calendar is being updated over the next few days and should be complete for September and October very soon.

If you would like to add the MichianaClix calendar to your list of Google calendars send a request by email to MichianaClix@gmail.com.
