I've seen the three different boxes (online) and I get that it's some sort of "duel" game between the figures, but what all do you get for $20???
Basically, what's it contain and how's it played?

No one knows really. No details are to be found about the gameplay. All I can find so far for content is 2 GH and a board which I think has 3D walls on the sides. Since the age is 5+ I'm guessing it's not going to be too complex, but it also says it takes about 15 minutes so it's got to be a little more than you roll a 3, I roll a 4, you lose. I was really hoping these were going to be released this weekend.
EDIT: Crap! I just saw someone else's post that they did see these this weekend. Guess it's back to the stores after work today! EDIT 2: I can't find anything about them online even tho someone has a photo of them with other stuff that came out over the weekend.

Ok I hit TRU yesterday and there they were in the game aisle tyring to blend in with everything else. I picked up the Obi/GG one. I'll see if I can get some pics and more detail on gameplay up tonight or tomorrow.
I think $20 is maybe a bit much, if they were $15 I'd probably get the rest no question. But if they keep making new ones I'll only pick up ones with characters I like.

Here's a couple of pics Pic 1Pic 2What you get (it's on the back of the box): 2 figs 2 dice 1 24 card deck for each character (each deck has 20 cards ranging from 1-6 plus 2 specials (x2) and 2 roll die cards) 1 set of 6 damage markers per character (they make a pic of the character) gameboard which fits in the box bottom stand up walls which fit into the box bottom Being intended for 5+years obviously it's not very exiciting. You start with all your damage markers on the blue/healthy side and draw some cards. Then you roll to move around the board, the spaces are either draw a card or battle. If you land on a Battle or the other player, you fight. Each player places one card face down from their hand, whoever is higher wins and the loser flips one of their damage markers over. And that's about it you go until one person has all 6 damage markers flipped. The specials are things like take a card from the discard or discard a card from opponent's hand type of things. The roll a die card can be used in place of a 1-6 card. The artwork is cutesy as it should be and actually pretty cool. The "3D" background has art on both sides and not just the side that would face the players. And actually will make a decent diorama area to display your GH. One interesting thing is that the mockups shown at NY ToyFair were sets from the movies and these are all from the upcoming Clone Wars movie. I'm also curious why they didn't try to lauch this with the Marvel line first.

FYI I found these in Target and they are a few bucks cheaper.

Played it last night. It was OK. Each character has some different special cards, although they are similar in addition to the 1-5. It's pretty simple, but could be fun.
