I'm excited for this because it's two characters AND the grunts. Adding in Kingpin, Viper, and Bullseye into The Hand as an affiliation would be dope. Mystique, Sabertooth, and Wolverine could also be Hand.
Isn't Kitty Pryde HAND trained as well?
No. She was trained/possessed by Ogun - who has no affiliation with the Hand - Yakuza, Viper and Mister X yes but not the Hand.
I mean... there are a lot of garbage nobody characters in the game. The Hood, Brother Voodoo, Bob, Cassandra Nova, Clea, Ronan, Sin, Viper, all terrible.
While a lot of these seem to be nobodies, they had their parts.
Also, a bit rich to be declaring Viper and Ronan nobodies. You know, considering Viper is the original Madame Hydra and Ronan the Accuser was one of the main players in the Kree-Skrull war of the 70s comics. You know, that rather big important event.
Nerd.
Sick burn, you really gottem there, the only nerd on this wargaming forum.

Looks good. I'm hoping we get more of these Leader/Minion packs. Would personally love to see Hydra Goods led by the Supreme Leader and Beekeepers with Scientist Supreme
Also I'm curious who the Hand Ninjas are attached to? Sticking them with DD makes sense as he's the "boss" at the time, but attaching them to Elektra opens up a lot of thematic Hand teams without having to include one very specific version of Matt Murdock.

Given this is Shadowlands DD, I'm going to assume the ninjas are tied to him and not Electra. Though, it would be interesting to see them both be options as parents (not a fan of this work here), but that creates the problem of only having one set of grunts for two parents.
There are plenty of possible grunt sets. But I think the intent is to have a very limited number of these.

I can definitely see the ninjas being tied to both. The article specifically mentions: "a player can only have one Grunt character in play at a time." which to me reads like even if I take Shadow DD and Nick at once, only one of them can summon their pet at a time. Having two characters that can use them is an interesting mechanic, though it might depend on whether they have a threat cost or take up roster slots.

His leadership is you get to reroll an attack dice when attacking someone with an objective.
Is he Dual Affiliation leader or are we saying that The Hand has been rolled into the Criminal Syndicate?

They must have been. There's no Hand affiliation card in the box.

Whilst I care not for a lot of the characters released due to lack previous exposure (I always collected x-titles in the 90s) the sculpts are miles ahead of GW ones in terms of proportions, mold lines and character.
I buy them all and the only things I do not have up to current release is the truck and the cosmic terrain mat.

Not a ton of new announcements yesterday, though the previous renders look great painted up and the new Asgard stuff looks great. Mostly just still excited for that X-Men stuff to release at the moment.

Really impressed with how well they're able to nudge the game back on course with some really smart changes. Super excited to get a bunch of this stuff on the table, even most of the nerfed characters.
