Spider-Girl HeroClix

Despite my lack of knowledge on how to play, I've always appreciated the HeroClix tabletop game. Today I'll be taking a very brief look at the current and upcoming Spider-Girl miniatures available for the game. 

The first Spider-Girl miniature for HeroClix was released in 2008 as part of the Secret Invasion series. Figure 041 here is actually the only one I own myself, and is apparently rare.





The next time a Spider-Girl miniature released was as figure 008 of 2016's Superior Foes of Spider-Man series. The first image below is the computer render from the official site. A black and white painted 'sketch variant' is also available, but I think the best part of this piece is the attention to detail on the abilities card.




Finally, we have the newest figure which is due for official release February 6 this year. From the Earth X series, we have figure 001a. Apparently this version of May 'Mayday' Parker is a variant of the Earth X Venom miniature which would explain the costume inaccuracies somewhat.




I really love the attention to detail with the nod to A-Next and May's strength in comparison to her father. Nice touches. I'm considering tracking these figures down just so I can have them for my collection. Who knows, perhaps one day I'll even learn how to play!

Until I master the tabletop game format, I remain
