The unique figure, which is numbered 85 in the set of 96 (see 'UNOFFICIAL MARVEL HEROCLIX: XPLOSION CHECKLIST' (http://x-mencomics.com/xfan/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=16222)), is described as follows:
"What’s better than Shadowcat as a low point–cost heroine who can walk through walls and dodge even the most powerful attacks? Shadowcat with a ranged attack, of course! Lockheed adds Energy Explosion to Shadowcat’s already adaptable bag of tricks, so now she can affect foes at range while still moving around freely to avoid damage."
"Unique Shadowcat with Lockheed is a great figure, not only because it is an accurate representation of the character, but also because it’s an inexpensive figure with movement latitude and some good attack options."
