Space Phantom has plasticity, which makes him difficult to break away from, and the improved shape change power, which now prevent you from targeting the figure on a 5 or 6 on the die roll. I have double checked my Forbush man, and his lack of toughness makes him little less appealing as a tie up piece after all.
During the game I played in last friday, my Korvak fought a number of foes. The only one he was able to hit, was Forbush Man. Which, really, was quite sad considering Forbush Man had the best defense of any target on the board.
It was funny that the husband of my opponent was playing with a Space Phantom pog.
Even funnier, I am currently the only active player in the area who knows who most of these characters are.
My Thanos was Mighty, until he was hit for 6 in the final round by a Shi'ar Colonel. Then Vet Hyperion and his hypersonic speed proved too much for the mad Titan.

It's odd that they use the NBE version instead of the more up to date one that Ellis created for NextWave.
I'm actually an acive Judge in my area. . .
