CMON & Spin Master’s “Marvel United: X-Men” Fully Funded on Kickstarter in 10 Minutes!

The Marvel United: X-Men board game was able to get fully funded in just 10 minutes after launching on Kickstarter. You can go ahead and pledge $65 to own the core box.

The Marvel United: X-Men game launched with three Kickstarter exclusives – Pyro, Blob, and Toad. Even though the $300,000 goal has already been reached, as of writing this, the total stands at more than $1,914,600. Wow!

You can visit the Kickstarter here.

Not only that, the campaign surprised fans with the first expansion pack! ‘The Horsemen of Apocalypse’ is a Kickstarter Exclusive expansion that’s all about pitting the X-Men against Apocalypse. By pledging $100, you can buy ‘The Horsemen of the Apocalypse’ expansion pack, the core box, Pyro, Blob, Toad, and a Kickstarter Exclusive alternate version of Storm, in her mohawk look!

Take note; anyone who backs the campaign between now and May 5, 2021, will receive the core box plus any additional stretch goal rewards unlocked throughout the campaign. The Stretch Goals includes mutant heroes such as Polaris, Strong Guy, Dazzler, Magik, Sunspot, Phoenix (Rachel Summers), and many more. The Anti-heroes include Emma Frost, Legion, Sauron, and more.

Whether you’re a huge fan of the core gameplay or not, the mini-figures of the X-Men characters are a must-have! I’m looking forward to the custom paint jobs.

I really want to get my friends together and play it like this! The estimated delivery date is May 2022. So, fingers crossed the world is doing a lot better by then so we can all get back to hanging out and playing geeky board games with friends and family.

Coming to the Optional Buys, the selection includes the First Class versions of the OG mutant characters for $30.

There’s also an Ultimate Classic Bundle for $220 if you want to go all out!
