Take flight with Sideshow’s Archangel Premium Format Figure

Angel, a former member of the X-Men, was saved by Apocalypse and transformed into Archangel, the Horseman of Death. Accorded a new physical form with techno-organic wings and blue skin, this once joyous mutant became a somber instrument of evil.

A harbinger of hope… or destruction? The Archangel Premium Format Figure by Sideshow brings this formidable character to collections in brilliant detail.

Measuring 28.75 inches tall, 16.8 inches wide, and 13.37 inches deep, this stunning piece presents Warren Worthington III in his classic blue and magenta costume after his transformation into the Eternal One’s Horseman of Death.

Apocalypse’s lethal henchman surveys the battlefield with his razor-sharp metal wings folded around his body like armor. His striking blue skin is a vibrant reminder of his extensive genetic alterations. Stripped of his own wings, four sets of poisonous blades instead protrude from Archangel’s back and shoulders as he flies above a base of demonic skulls. 

The Archangel Premium Format Figure comes with 3 swap-out portraits, allowing fans to explore various steps in Archangel’s journey through rage, revenge, and redemption. Included are a cowled head, a head featuring his gold Death mask, and an unmasked head sporting Warren’s loose blonde curls.

Add the divine Archangel Premium Format Figure to your Marvel collection. Available to pre-order now.

Heroclix – Deadpool and Archangel


Bookmark and Share

Wizkids has released a preview of it’s latest creation for the Giant Size X-Men Heroclix, Uncanny X-Force’s Deadpool and Archangel.

Heroclix DeadpoolHeroclix ArchangelFrom the Wizkids website:

It’s great to see Deadpool in his X-Force uniform and he certainly brings an arsenel of explosive one-liners and witty weapons.  His dial opens with Stealth (as he sneaks-sneaks-sneaks around), Toughness, and his New Writer special power that allows you to add a little deus ex machina to your games by choosing the power set that will help you out the most during your game.

Stealth gives way to Running Shot as Deadpool leaves the comfort of shadows for a full-frontal assualt, while Toughness gives way to some early-dial Regeneration (handy to get back up to those first clicks), and Perplex allows him to add that little bit of extra help where it’s needed most.

Deadpool’s late-dial brings Charge and then Phasing/Teleport as well as some Blades/Claws/Fangs to the battlemap and Regeneration makes another appearance as well.  However, if Regeneration isn’t sufficient to get Deadpool’s dial to where you want it, there’s always his X-Men team ability which allows you to share clicks of health with other figures with the team ability.

Lastly, Deadpool’s trait allows him to ignore the effects of Poison, Mind Control, and Penetrating/Psychic Blast

and

Archangel joins his X-Force comrades striking from the shadows with early-dial Stealth.  If your opponent tries to base Archangel, their figure must then contend with Warren’s Combat Reflexes and Quake, hardly an incentive to engage in close combat!

Archangel’s mid-dial gives him access to his Razor Wings special power which allows Archangel to use Blades/Claws/Fangs while using Hypersonic SpeedCombat Reflexes gives way to Toughness as Running Shot and Incapacitate demonstrate Archangel’s paralytic “move and strike” techniques.

Finally, late-dial Regenerate and the X-Men team ability allow you to continually get Archangel to where he’ll do the most good.
