Marvel Super Heroes to Join Heroclix TabApp Line-Up

This fall, Wizkids, game creator and wholly owned subsidiary of NECA, is enabling fans and players to unlock the wondrous world of HeroClix directly from their iPad devices, and have today announced the inclusion of Marvel Universe super heroes within the "HeroClix TabApp."

Seamlessly integrating physical HeroClix miniatures from several Marvel lines, "HeroClix TabApp" will feature stylistic versions of Marvel Universe super heroes Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, Wolverine, Cyclops, and Iceman, the six original Marvel HeroClix series one figures, at launch.

As Jamie Kampel, Director of Licensing, Marvel, explains, "We’re excited to partner with NECA on this brand new interactive toy. The HeroClix game has been hugely successful with Marvel and the 'HeroClix TabApp' will further engage core fans and create a new entry point for consumers."

Coinciding with the release of the new app, Marvel "HeroClix TabApp" miniatures will hit shelves of participating comic and hobby retailers this October.

"HeroClix TabApp" is the ultimate portable HeroClix play experience. Utilizing figure recognition technology, "HeroClix TabApp" combines physical HeroClix miniatures with your iPad and offers exciting combat experiences in detailed virtual arenas.
