Very nice if it is fully textured. Hopefully the release will be sometime before Christmas. I'm still deciding what I want off the missus, and this is just the thing.

VERY nice looking stuff!

Make me feel a bit better for missing (not being able to afford) the Wolsung stuff.

Will definitely pick these up - next year!

Do they also make that overturned cart? I didn't see it in their Malifaux kits.

I believe the cart is going to part of the terrain kits.

Or in the grim darkness of the distant future, maybe Dreamforge will actually release their building kits. Who knows?

I'm sure you'd be able to buy any MDF or plasticard cart and just lay it on its side for the same effect though.

Salvage and Logistics (Outcasts Leviticus Boxed Set)=Instagrab for me. I have been waiting for that box for a while. These releases look pretty good so far.

Do note that these modern releases for Malifaux are $50 for a Master's boxed set. The price of the older sets hasn't increased, but the newer sets are $50.

The Leviticus set does seem to have a ton of stuff to justify the price, though.

The Hoffman set art seems to have something off to the right. No way they're going to charge $50 for Hoffman, a Guardian, a Hunter, and a Watcher. That's more than their metal variants bought individually. At least the Leviticus set seems like great value compared to their metal variants.

On one hand, "Oh no, no Lucius crew."

On the other, "Oh good, no Lucius crew, I can catch up on the Deadzone and Infinitystuff I've missed."

Still hope we ger Lucius early next year, though.

Lucius is a November 14th release. Enjoy!
Sorry, I don't play Guild much and didn't think it was that new. Apparently Lucius is a Neverborn/Guild master now...?

Well damn/hooray! I've been waiting for that one since it was previewed at Gencon, but at the moment I'm in full sci-fi mode, so it'll have to be one for the Xmas list...

True, but he's supposed to be hidden. This would be like the Viktorias also becoming Neverborn masters. Having Lucius leading a bunch of Nephilim would probably raise more than a few eyebrows.

However, Lucius leading some other Mimics or more human looking Woe wouldn't. Having Candy, a Beckoner or two or a Doppleganger along for the ride might be a touch creepy for the Guild guys with them, but they still look human and Malifaux itself is a creepy place, so it would possibly get overlooked.

This is one of those things where it seems they've opened it up for some more fluffy crews, like having some other Mimics tag along, but also simply opens it up for the bizarre, like having a Teddy tag along.

I feel like Lucius would be like "Oh the Teddy? Kids party, no need to worry about that."

Also when he is in the Neverborn isn't the upgrade to take guild- Surprisingly Loyal? I mean I feel like the guild who do hang around him have seen a lot of messed up stuff and probably stop questioning what goes on at this point.

Well, McMourning has been operating under the guild noses forever, and now has earned enough trust to run operations on his own, so lucius isn't that far of a stretch by comparison.

In fact, it's because of Lucius that McMourning is able to do those things... McMourning, after all, is aware of Lucius's true nature, having seen what is under the mask. He's one of the few that has, in fact.

That Leviticus set is awesome. Been waiting for that since we saw the concept art God knows when. Hoffman looks cool from the art, wish we had model renders though.

Is the Dreamer box out properly yet? I think that might be my first Malifaux purchase.

I do also quite like the Lucius box, considering I normally prefer the ones with some kinda monsters in as opposed to all humans... And out of curiosity, what is under his mask?

Is it just me or does the Leviticus render side have a bad copy/paste error - I see 'lost love' which would be from the Kirai set?

Crossroads has a background story with Lucius revealing himself as a never born to someone as well. Was hoping for news of the rumoured plastic Carver.....

I really wish they'd just do resin/metal for limited editions. Plastic molds cost so much it doesnt make a lot of sense to make them for small runs, and it screws over the consumer by resulting in higher prices.

Those Bound By Laws guys look cool. I wish they all had funky ballroom masks, but that might be a fun easy conversion for me to try if I ever get around to picking up Malifaux. :-P

Its the mechanical attendant (totem). So 1 large figure, 1 medium and 3 man sized. But still $50 for that is kind of weak compared to other boxes. In comparison, I got 3 50mm based beasts, a totem and 2 humans in the Marcus box.

I would assume Hoffman's box would include Ryle, henchman. Maybe the art isnt finalized?

I doubt miniature size comes into it. It would be quantity of sprue used. Dreamer was $50au, while Pandora was $40au. Pandora was on one sprue (from memory) which included 7 models, one was on a 50mm base. Dreamer had 8 models and one was on a 50mm base, but it was an entire second sprue with Chompy Bits.
