No physical set yet, thankfully I also picked up the online set but I won't run matches till I get my physical cards.

Received mine today, about half way through the book. One huge surprise for me so far. The Hector story I did not see coming at all. I think I would like to see the rage of monolith come back. Also I really liked the art on wolf and hated the art on Mayhem. He looks better on the cover of the booklet than on his card. Looks like a skinny czw hardcore guy from the 90s. Good effort, will enjoy this series very much. Curious to see who the stow away will be next year.

Received mine today.
Really like where things are headed...lots of fun in the read so far.
I like the Gladiator storyline best myself...glad to see the Overmaster making changes to bring about Gladiator dominance again!

Well other than the Darkest/Dark Justice defense thing, it's a very cool set all around. While the freebies didn't do much for me, IB claimed the Krakan and Mike Graham cards so TM chose well on those.

Really like Tom's writing...you can "see" the influence his screenplay writing is having in the handbooks.
While I like the edition overall, I wish that we hadn't been "spoiled" with Star Slayer and Darkest Justice - these were the headliners for the Future Shock storyline, and while I LOVE that Mayhem is back, I felt a little let down that there wasn't another BIG name which would have given the "WOOOOOW" to the set. I think had we been not had any Second Coming spoilers and then had Star Slayer and Darkest Justice come through in the same fashion as 2130's revealing, there would be a lot more folks jumping out of their skin!
Right now, I am all for NO FUTURE SHOCK 2132 SPOILERS.

Can I ask a really weird/stupid question? Does anyone else find it odd that for years Harbinger has been blue skinned and here in 2131 he is yellow skinned as Eydolon?

what is wrong with his (Justice) defense? I do not study the cards very much, so I am most likely missing something obvious, but I don't see anything out of the ordinary.

His name is Darkest Justice, but his defense has his comebacks as DARK JUSTICE.
