I'm wondering how these minis might paint up as Montesas. Well, the combi and the generic at any rate. The weapons are (guessing) HMG or multi, Combi, Boarding shotgun, and generic or even a Doctor. CB will save the multi or HMG for the MO starter box.

You can see the HMG in the pic.

Same with the Combi. They're both in the center.

CORRECTION:
The two guns in the center are a Boarding Shotgun and HMG. Someone pointed out the weird foregrip for the BSG on the left.

Yes, looks like a boarding shotgun, but we really need better quality pic, none has surfaced so far?

I could have sworn 2nd from left had a combi. Ah well. I guess I was distracted by the Warhammer Fantasy™ and Warhammer 40,000™ "items".

No matter. It looks like CB's take on Knights in Space is going to produce some excellent minis.

About time, thought I'd never get to use Maestro.

Plus that sweet sweet repeater network expansion means Onyx can abuse the E-Drone and Nullifier to maximum effect.

Concept art looks good too, dat tentacle hair.

She looks really solid. At first glance I was a little disappointed that her points increased since before her real selling point was as a dirt cheap hacker, but the new version brings a lot for 19 points. A deployable repeater (with minelayer), a pitcher, a submachinegun, EI Killer Hacking device... even without Kiss she;d be worth the cost. I hope she'll get a model!

Plus she's available to Onyx. I was hoping that MAF would get her too. Those Morats should have kept her for themselves!

19 points is quite the bargain for this unit. I hear Bit will get Frenzy as a trait if one's opponent fields a Hexa.

I hope it gets a mini too, and with that hair. I'm a sucker for minis with really cool hair. ( Anyat, Bootleg Penthesilea, Stephen Rao... etc.)

19pt regular order, 6 BTS hacker, and an adhesive launcher. Seems nice.

I especially like Bit's "eleven" BS. It's much better than "11".

Well that was a bit of surprise, Taskmasters come in a box, Blackjack on the other hand is unsurprisingly mostly solid chunks of metal, of interest is the choice to have the sniper rifle mounted on the arm, makes construction really easy.

You assemble parts.

Oh because it was discussed in the previous pages that taskmasters were in a blister with extra arm and I assumed this was the case and was genuinely surprised they come in a box, likewise there was a debate on whether Blackjacks were hollow cast or solid and since I assemble them I wanted to confirm they are solid metal chunks not hollow.

As for the sniper rifle, I was genuinely surprised on how the weapon was cast on the arm and not a separate piece making the assembly so much easier, wanted to relay the information and while I am a it since it was asked Andromeda's hand is unfortunately as expected on the head of the bot.

Thats actually a good deal. We're they individually like $14?

I mean, I remember buying 3 Fusiliers for like $15 back when they came out and thinking that was great, but these days $21 for 2 Infinity models seems like a steal.

It's an odd one to be sure. I'm glad I've got the LE version as I'm not a fan of the base at all. I'd also like it if the 'alternate version' wasn't just a different hairstyle but also perhaps a spitfire arm so that the mobility version could be represented.

I might have think if I can use this body (with a helmet from somewhere) to make a female version of a standard order knight but nothing immediately springs to mind that doesn't involve a huge amount of work for a sub-par profile so I might just give it a miss entirely.

“Good people are quick to help others in need, without hesitation or requiring proof the need is genuine. The wicked will believe they are fighting for good, but when others are in need they’ll be reluctant to help, withholding compassion until they see proof of that need. And yet Evil is quick to condemn, vilify and attack. For Evil, proof isn’t needed to bring harm, only hatred and a belief in the cause.”
