WizKids will be unveiling its Halo ActionClix at the San Diego Comic-Con along with the largest 'miniature' that WizKids has ever produced, a Halo 3 figure that will be 24' x 24' x 20.' The gargantuan figure will be awarded as a prize to the winner of contest that will be held at the WizKids booth in
WizKids' first series of 80 Halo ActionClix is due to be released in September (see 'WizKids to Launch ActionClix') and since it shares the same basic game mechanics with other WizKids Clix games, players will be able to use their Halo ActionClix with other Clix figures or to mimic Halo multiplayer action using teams of USNC or the Covenant or mixed teams. In addition to each figure's combat dials, they also come with stat cards listing the specific abilities of that piece. Using different 'move and shoot' capabilities and blocking terrain players attempt to get the best shot at their opponent's pieces, replicating the first person shooter action of the hugely popular Halo video games.
The first series of Halo ActionClix figures will come in two different pack formats, a $10 pack that includes 4 figures, 4 stat cards, 2 die, and a map, and an $11 sku, a five-figure blind-pack that comes with 5 stat cards, rules and a map. The $10 pack provides all that is necessary for two players to begin playing the game.
