January 31, 2007 (SEATTLE) — WizKids Inc. announced today the release of HorrorClix™: The Lab, the first expansion for the insanely popular HorrorClix collectable miniatures game (GMG).

HorrorClix: The Lab combines bizarre creatures from across sci-fi horror worlds, including alien greys, dinosaurs, misshapen experiments and, of course, zombies!  The set also features exciting new plot twist cards, victim tokens and abilities, with a total of 96 new monsters to collect, some of which can turn victims into their servants using the minion mechanic.

“Traditionally, when your monster slays a victim, the victim is simply removed from the map,” said WizKids® EVP of Sales, Marketing and Product Development, Joe Hauck. “Now you can slay the cheerleader then make her slay the world.”

HorrorClix: The Lab is available in Booster Packs (MSRP $7.99) that each contain four random figures, four matching monster cards, one plot twist card and one victim token.  Each HorrorClix: The Lab case includes enough prize support for four weeks of in-store events, with an additional 12 weeks provided FREE from WizKids though Diamond Comic Distributors, Alliance Game Distributors or ordered from the WizKids retailer In-Store Play website.

A wholly owned subsidiary of the Topps Company (TOPP), WizKids is a Seattle-based game developer and publisher dedicated to creating tabletop games driven by imagination. Its HeroClix® and Pirates brands are among the most successful games on the market today. Over 150 million game pieces have been sold worldwide.  For additional information, visit www.wizkidsgames.com.
