Coming of [custom] Galactus event 2007!

Last Friday, the core members of our gaming group assembled at Neal's house for my own version of The Coming of Galactus Event. I had purchased an extremely well-made custom Galactus Heroclix fig on ebay a few months ago (it was a pretty good price and I couldn't pass it up) and I figured it would make an awesome prize at a kick ass game night.

Unfortunately, not everyone was able to attend (Dustin was off getting some "strange" somewhere and Vic probably had his hands full with his new baby.

Our good friend Colton even made an appearance halfway through the event, although he's not a clixaholic like the rest of us are. But that's okay though - it's always a party with that guy around!

I wanted to document the event, so here are some pics:


Neal and Beau strategize during round 1.


Beau manhandles his Green Lantern while Matt (background) comtemplates his next move.


Neal (background) is kicking ass with his Thanos team as Nate is getting his ass kicked by Beau's Green Lantern Corps.


I made Beau pose with the can of Dr. Pepper he kept dropping. Thank God he hadn't opened it yet. Quit spilling stuff on my maps, Beau!


Neal's Thanos team did pretty well. The core figs took some damage here and there, but the Paramedics were always able to patch them back up to their starting clicks. Matt didn't stand a chance.


More of the Thanos team. Mr. Smirnoff and the Cosmic Cube witness the carnage.


I snapped this one shortly after Colton arrived. He finally sat down after insisting on smacking everyone on the ass. That's just the kind of guy he is.


After winning all three rounds of the event, Neal was given the option of two prizes: the Galactus or Colton's impromptu Beercock.


The champion!
