Loved this set. Lots of my favourite characters,
plus the Justice Society sub-theme. As close to a
perfect set for me, and the first Heroclix set I
completed, minus the chase figures. The sketch
variants were a downside, but I did manage to collect
all regular figures with the exceptions of Johnny
Thunder & Jakeem Thunder.
