Hello, I was just wondering if Hero Games is ever going to be coming out with any official Champions miniatures. I will be running a Con game in a few weeks and it would be really cool if I had figures that looked like the Champions superteam.

The cardboard mini's for sale in the online store do the job if you have a decent color printer.

The clear solution for 3d is for a continous trickle of interest to appear in reaper's inbox (or some other good mini company).

Check Digital Hero #12 and #14 for some ideas on how to find and use miniatures in your Champions game. :)

Have you ever checked out the Superfigs (http://griffongames.safeshopper.com/86/cat86.htm?782) line of superhero miniatures?

I for one have. They are good looking minis. However I have never purchased any for one reason. They are simply too big. When the old standard was 25mm and the current standard is 28mm, why would someone design minis at about 32-35mm? As long as they are that big I simply won't even try to work them into the rest of my minis. I for one have instead turned to HeroClix. They are appropriately sized. And I can find most rookies for 20¢-50¢ at a number of online dealers. And if you are at all adventurous, with a knife and some paint you can have one that looks exactly like your character very easily.

Another vote for Hero CLix, it does not hurt that I am addicted to it :)

I used a bunch of Hydra Opertives for Viper agents last week...all i need now is a good obsidian figure...
