A new Marvel HeroClix set is on the Horizon, and WizKids has provided ComicBook.com with a 10-booster brick to unbox and show to our readers. The new set is Marvel HeroClix: X-Men the Animated Series, the Dark Phoenix Saga. The set draws inspiration from the popular animated series that introduced a legion of fans to X-Men and the Marvel Universe on Saturday mornings in the 1990s but also draws wider inspiration from the entirety of 1990s X-Men comics.

This set is special because every booster is a super booster. That means each five-figure boosters includes four standard figures and one 2×2 base figures. Those larger figures draw inspiration from the entirety of X-Men comic book and Animated Series, with some stunning sculpts and very powerful figures.
Opening 10 boosters means we pulled 10 of those 2×2 figures, as well as 40 others. Let’s take a look at what we got in our brick:
