Moon Knight & Blade Previewed For Marvel: Crisis Protocol
June 22, 2021 by brennon
More characters are joining the expanding roster of heroes and villains in Marvel: Crisis Protocol. Atomic Mass Games recently previewed both Moon Knight and Blade who are going to be joining the fight very soon with some cool-looking 40mm miniatures.

We start off with Moon Knight. It is going to be very interesting seeing how people paint him up for starters! I must say that I didn't know much about Moon Knight but from a quick scan of the interwebz, he seems like a fun character! I like that he's similar in many regards to Batman and is on that path of vengeance against wrong-doers. It's also neat to find out about another character who doesn't (normally) have access to superpowers and instead use his gadgets and learned skills to take down foes.
I would imagine that this addition to the Crisis Protocol roster is somewhat prompted by the news of Oscar Isaac taking on the role in both his TV series and in future MCU films. I am interested to see more!
Kicking Vampire Ass
We also got a look at the absolutely epic miniature for Blade which is coming our way.
Blade // Marvel: Crisis Protocol
I must admit that most of my knowledge of Blade comes from the introduction of him into the 90s Spider-Man cartoon and of course the Wesley Snipes movies. Who wouldn't want to play as a kick-ass vampire slayer who is part vampire himself?
I think the sculpt here is great as Blade descends on his foes, ready to cut them into pieces with those twin katana. I also think they've (both the sculptor and painter) done a superb job on his face there, really bringing out the anger and deadly intent! I can't wait to see what Mahershala Ali does with the character in future MCU content.
Are you tempted to pick up these new heroes in the near future?

2 more stunning miniatures.
Kinda wish I’d got into M:CP but I think the sheer volume to collect now is a bit of a barrier.
Yeah, I’ve been feeling the same about it recently. The need for a whole new set of terrain scaled to it also puts me off. Seems to be doing really well though, looks good and most of what I’ve heard about it is positive
Lovely looking models again. I like that they are covering such a wide range of the Marvel universe
I love the Blade mini – classic 90’s style.
The Moon Knight is the original costume – I much preferred his outfit when he joined the West Coast Avengers.
Not such a fan of that mini – it is nice to see this range continue to expand.
Much like the first two posters I cannot justify getting this *repeat* I CANNOT justify getting this ha ha
I hardly even play the game, but being a huge marvel fan since I was a child I can’t resist buying the models. I know the marvel roster is huge, and if I want some of my more obscure favorites they have to churn out quite some models, but the speed with which they release these (and they are a bit pricey) make it kinda hard to keep up. I haven’t even painted half of what I have and I have more projects to work on. These look really nice though. Love the Moon Knight and Blade is pretty much… Read more »
Those are some good looking miniatures.
Ooh the Vampire slayer himself Blade is fantastic looking for players. The Moon Knight is a new character to me an looks great.
Cool, the Blade pose with the vampires hands try to catch him IS a lot cover style
