I found it,
This is the press release from Wizkids::
May 17, 2006 (SEATTLE) — WizKids Inc. is pleased to announce the
first licensed property to join the HorrorClix™ collectable
miniatures game (CMG). In conjunction with Twentieth Century Fox,
two Alien vs. Predator Collector's Sets are to be released.
The
first set features the acid-blooded Aliens and
the second set
features the brutal space-faring hunters, the Predators."The Alien vs. Predator license adds two of the most fearsome
creatures in science fiction to the HorrorClix game line," said
Jordan Weisman, WizKids® CEO. "When we asked in a recent online poll
who the fans wanted to see most, Alien vs. Predator won the vote
hands down. We're just thrilled to bring the terror and excitement
of Alien vs. Predator to the HorrorClix gaming experience."
"Our teams at Twentieth Century Fox Licensing and Merchandising are
thrilled to be working with WizKids on the ever-successful AVP
franchise. We share their enthusiasm for this property, which has
become a mainstay within the science-fiction genre. WizKids' passion
for exceptional product execution will not disappoint their fans,
and Fox is proud to be a part of the HorrorClix collection this
holiday and in 2007," said Michael Peikoff, vice president of
Domestic Licensing at Twentieth Century Fox.
The first HorrorClix Collector's Set, Aliens, contains seven combat-
ready creatures from the vision of H.R. Geiger and as seen in the
2004 feature film Alien vs. Predator. The Aliens Collector's Set
debuts this December, and it is available first and at a discount
to "Buy it by the Brick" customers who purchase HorrorClix at their
local hobby-game retail stores. A "ClixBrick" is 12 shrink-wrapped,
four-figure Booster Packs. The Predator set will debut in early
2007. Each set will include a special map detailing locations from
the movie, including shifting walls in an ancient pyramid.
HorrorClix mechanics are based on the industry-leading HeroClix®
CMG, and the game allows players to build armies of werewolves,
zombies, killer clowns and more in a wicked-fun, gore-filled romp.
Imaginative characters and sculpting, great game play and an
original storyline make HorrorClix a unique entry into the hobby-
game market. The premiere HorrorClix release hits hobby-game stores
worldwide on August 30, 2006.
A special HorrorClix sneak peek is planned at the Origins
International Game Expo in Columbus, OH, on June 29. The game will
also be available at a presale in limited quantities at Gen Con in
Indianapolis on August 10. For additional information, visit
