This new core set maintains all the current rules of Crisis Protocol, but packages them into a Core Set that has been updated in every other way to create the next evolution of entry points into Marvel: Crisis Protocol.
As opposed to the original Core Set, this one looks like it will have three more initial characters, six more bases, and plenty of terrain to go around!
The battle continues with the Earth’s Mightiest Core Set for Marvel: Crisis Protocol! Featuring 13 all-new miniatures of iconic heroes and villains, this set invites players to assemble their own team from across the Marvel Universe and leap back into battles of cataclysmic proportions.
Beyond choosing their teams, this set also empowers players to customize every aspect of their Marvel: Crisis Protocol experience with 26 terrain miniatures to build their battlefields, 6 new Crisis Cards featuring new scenarios, and 20 Team Tactic cards that fine-tune their teams’ abilities.

We’ll break down both the Villians’ and Heroes’ side; that way, if you’re splitting it with a friend, you know what you’ll save!
Villians:
- Doctor Octopus $34.95 (based on other big base models)
- Ultron with Grunts $49.99 (based an other models with Grunts)
- Red Skull, Crossbones, Bucky, and Baron Zemo are basically an Affiliation Pack $59.99
Total Villian MSRP: $144.93
Total savings versus half of the $149.99 box price: $70.43
The terrain we’ll cover later, but that will also be added to the savings of this side.
Heroes:
- Captain Marvel, Cosmic Avenger $29.99 (based on Ms. Marvel that has a two-form pack)
- Captain America, Iron Man, Black Widow, and Peter Parker are basically an affiliation pack $59.99
Total Hero MSRP: $89.98
Total savings versus half of the $149.99 box price: $15.48
This seems much lower, but the main reason the villains have more value is due to the Grunts and the large model pack.
Terrain and Accessories:
- The terrain is a bit of a sampler pack but is a mix of theCrashed Sentinel and NYC Pack with 2 extra cars $80 (based on normal terrain packs with a little more for extras)
- Movement & Range Tools $19.99
- Dice Pack $9.95
- Rules Added Value
Total MSRP: $109.94
Total Value: $344.85
Total savings of the $149.99 box Price: $194.86
Is the Box Worth it?
In short, of course! You get a ton of minis and plenty of stuff for two people to have fun games against one another. If you’re splitting it with a friend, the way the villains’ side is set up, they do save a decent amount more. However, when you add in the terrain, this is just a great buy.
Whether you want all the new minis or if you’re just getting into the game, this is a great starter box. Plus, if you wait just a little while, there’s a chance you’ll be able to find this for even cheaper. Anytime you save more than 100% of the box cost, how can you pass it up?
