You'll lose your Rag

Well, who knew? Apparently, 'Ragdoll' in an anagram of 'most annoying tie-up piece you are ever likely to come across'.

This fella is fabulous - unless your opponent is fielding him, of course, and he is standing next to your 200pt brick. For just 46pts he has Shape Change and Super Senses to keep him out of trouble - followed by Combat Reflexes for when someone does actually land a blow. Then there's THAT white power - and I'm not talking the one that requires you to be playing Parademon.

Just picture your opponent's face when they finally manage to break away from this annoying pasty-faced bugger (did I not mention all that lovely Plasticity?) - only to be back to square one with Ragdoll still far too close for comfort at the end of the action.

Of course, he has his downsides - primarily an understandably short dial. Base Green Scar with him, for example, and miss the Shape Change and Super Senses rolls and it's all over over for Doll-face. Still, it's gotta be worth the gamble.

I love me a nice tie-up piece - and they don't come much nicer than this fella. If this is the shape of things to come for the DC 75th Anniversary set then bring it on.

Now, where can I get me some Secret Six books?

  2. I'm hoping as Knightfall is represented in DC75th we will get a new Bane.

    Vince - SS is the best thing DC puts out at present. I'll lend.
