WizKids is proud to announce the release of their first HeroClix Story-Line OP Program, Infinity Gauntlet! On January 4th, the Infinity Gauntlet OP Program kicks off in spectacular fashion as stores from all over the world begin their quest to obtain the power of the Infinity Gauntlet!

The Infinity Gauntlet program is our most aggressive program in years and features ALL NEW, ALL UNIQUE content.

The program is built around the story of Thanos and the Infinity Gauntlet. Each month players will gather at your stores to compete for coveted LEs, culminating with winners receiving Thanos atop his Shrine to Death. However, we also layered in a VERY strong participation prize element into the program. In Kit 1, each player will be given a “gem-less” Infinity Gauntlet object just for showing up to the 1st event. Each month thereafter, players will be awarded participation prizes in the form of colored Gems. Each colored Gem attaches to the Infinity Gauntlet and unlocks a special power. After month 7 each player should have a gauntlet with 6 gems and be ready for the final showdown with Thanos at his Shrine
