Final Thoughts

Excelsior! This super powered work of art collector’s chess set is the ultimate chess set for Marvel fans. The dynamic theme of this set turns an ordinary strategic game of chess into an epic Marvel Heroes vs Villains battle. Words like amazing and spectacular also come to mind. I love the selection of Marvel Heroes and Villains characters chosen for each chess piece rank. The chess piece figures are all super high quality which makes it feel like it could easily be a $200 chess set. You just have to decide if you want to be team heroes or team villains. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Marvel Chess Collector’s set for Marvel fans.
