Wow, these would certainly move Colossus up into a top-tier character! Obviously, pairing him with Juggernaut would then be a no-brainer. Together with his card from THE MARVELS set, Colossus would be a Special Card defensive tank!!

Out of curiosity, why did you want to give Colossus a bunch of new Specials? Just for the love of it? Or did you feel he isn't as stong in OP as he should be?

That's what I was wondering. I like some of the card wordings (mikhail especially seems interesting), but I  personally feel like Colossus is pretty good as he is now    IMO. I like him as a good force, but not too dominate - We do have to have all levels in the game for Balance.

he's my main x-man
i was looking at bios and http://justabgkid.com/emporium/homemadeemporiumhome.html (i look at those a lot) and figured why not colossus as well

I can understand that. Every now and then I make a card just because I think it would be cool for one of my favorite characters to have it.

i wonder if colossus had both haymaker and headbutt would they be considered dupes?

IMO if he had the capability to play Jug's specials then no it would not be a dupe b/c one is his and one is Jug's.  Similar to drawing 2 different specials usable by the same guy with the same number on them.... i.e. Thor Mystic Uru Metal and Mjolnir Speaks (I know the subtext is different) but in lamens terms they are both 4S.

not dup'
it'd be the same as Beyonder using them both, or if the Event, FIGHTING SPIRIT LIVES came up. Having both in your hand, and having 1 person be able to use them, doesn't make them duplicates.

I guess not, because they are from different characters, but interesting question. I had another doubt related to it:

Make it a 6S and code it BO like Cyclops' Remove Visor 

artist
draw 2 cards
keep duplicates

steeled bodied mutant
colossus may have an unlimited number of special cards placed on him until colossus is KO'd. Specials may not be duplicates

or
colossus may keep duplicate mighty metal skin of steel iron curtain and organic steel specials for remainder of game

That's exactly what I thought reading breadmaster's idea! I tried a different concept in my 2nd edition set:

I like that. To me that is how Colossus was/is! Not necessarilly the main man, but a supreme force when put with a team - I like this concept a lot.
