WizKids has announced a short-term HeroClix promotion designed to support brick and mortar retailer sales of backlist. From now until January 10th, consumers that mail in four box-bottoms from HeroClix boosters (except for Armor Wars), a brick and mortar store receipt, and a shipping and handling fee will receive a random unique figure from the upcoming DC HeroClix Collateral Damage release (see 'WizKids Announces Collateral Damage').
WizKids has also announced a change to its HeroClix pre-release program. Beginning next summer, any retail venue can qualify to run a pre-release event based on attendance at Marquee events, a change that is expected to expand WizKids' pre-release program by a factor of ten. Until the new pre-release program is rolled out, WizKids will suspend pre-release programs; there will be none supporting the DC HeroClix Collateral Damage release.
