USA-OPOLY | Marvel Collector's Chess Set | Board Game | 2 Players | Ages 8+ | 60+ Minute Playing Time

Product Information

Further, a Marvel chess board has also been produced to present your figurines on the perfect canvas and a binder for storing your magazines is available as well.

You get an easy to understand and informative guide to the game that offers some solid advice, with a good visual display of what it’s explaining.These Marvel Chess Sets are the perfect way to geek out about your favorite superheroes while playing one of the oldest strategy games. The only reason I can think of that these guys and girls weren’t incorporated is if there’s going to be a whole X-men Chess set (which to be fair, is wholly feasible with the plethora of characters available), or if there will be supplementary additions to this initial set, like the aforementioned Fantastic Four set. You can pay extra as part of one of the subscription models, and get alternative pieces in the form of the Fantastic Four, but this is a little weak in my opinion. The first piece will look familiar if you also got the Fact Files issues from Eaglemoss, as Spidey’s pose is identical to the statue from that set. The Chess Set caught wind of this and stole the bodies of Auric and Silver and later kidnapped Hedison.

The entire set contains 32 unique figurines from 16 different comic book characters including Batman Superman Wonder Woman Flash Nightwing Batgirl Red Hood Aquaman Green Arrow Principal Freedom Fighter etc.

Marvel Chess Collection series which saw every issue contain a magazine and a chess piece themed around a different character. They all have their respective player emblems (knight, rook etc) on the bases, and the heroes’ ones are all a metallic steel colour. Eaglemoss Marvel chess pieces are a great way to collect functional figurines of your favorite Marvel heroes and villains. Well, the basic collector (ie non-subscriber) will be able to purchase each issue, complete with a new piece to add to their collection.

The good guys – the white team – stand proud on silvered bases, while Marvel’s best bad guys are mounted on bronze-effect bases. I don’t know if it’s the artwork, the depth and variety of characters or the recent movies that have hooked me so well, but they have me.With dozens of figurines to chose from, collectors can assemble the perfect chess set for their game room and have a piece of craftsmanship worthy of display.
