HeroSnapZ was created by three talented friends, (Michael O’Connell,
Niles Nelson and myself Stephen Sacco). One day in late January, we
were in the process of creating a usb sensor bar with the use of IR
L.E.D’s. The wiring was perfect the unit worked, but we needed to
create a housing to seat the L.E.D’s.

For testing purposes we needed something to mount the LED’s to.
Since we always display our Heroclix figure on top of our TV’s, we
thought Heroclix would make an ideal sensor bar.

That is when it happened. What if we use LED’s to illuminate the
Heroclix? After searched far and wide we found some of the materials. First we drilled a whole through center of the dial of Invisible boy. Giving it a
stunning red glow. It worked, but we knew more must be done. A base
would be needed to be created to hold the LED and the power source.

We broke out the clay and got to work. A few weeks later we had
completed a model that would hold the power supply, LED and allow the
Heroclix to click. So you would not have to remove the Heroclix to
play. We posted a few Prototype pictures on HC Realms and created a
Facebook page.

Over the past few months we have been thrilled with the communities
response. We would like to thank everyone who has supported us and we
can not wait to release our new Heroclix related products.
