Not sure how these are more boring than the outcasts one...

The flesh monster, ghost samurai and axemen are all awesome.

Agree. Outcasts is probably the most meh... for me right now.

Thus far I haven't been blown away with wyrd's modelling of energy so the swordsman and the corpse candles don't do much for me. the Axemen and the shield bearers look good though.

The masked thing with the sword and spirits all over it could be an interesting model. Don't remember seeing that before. Looks rather large too.


It's a Gonryo from Under Quarantine, second model this book making its way over from Through the breach. The other is the black haired woman with the clip board and black hair in the back of the Guild stuff. She's Allison Dade from Northern Aggression.

Ooff. Nothing in there I don't like. I want it all.

Ummm. The Gorar is up the back and looks enormous, but on the box art it looked like a 30mm base model.

I like how the Neverborn has a bunch of big monsters, people that look like anime villains, and then a random old prospector.that guy is so out of place.

The prospector is part of the Bandersnatch's (the spider thing) base. It's pouncing on him. It's in the art for the latest Chronicles (page 50).

Fortunately, it looks like it's very easy to build it without him, unlike the Wendigo in Rasputinas box. Wyrd have gotten better with that sort of thing - the Bayou Gators that have Gremlins in their mouths actually come with separate heads to build them without the Gremlins.

That's interesting about the gators- the main reason I didn't buy them was due to their eating of Gremlins- I had plans for the gators elsewhere.

Good to know. Have to keep that in mind.

Poorly lit photos of my ever- growing collection of completely unrelated models!

Well, there's 3 with Gremlins. There's 1 in the box that has a Gremlin in its mouth, and the LE Gator they just did for their most recent FLGS promo, which also has a Gremlin in its mouth. Both have alternate heads without Gremlins. Then there's the one with the gremlin balancing on its snout as it lunges out of the water. You just don't have to put the Gremlin on its nose.

That kind of model design does get weird when you start thinking about how apparently those gremlins keep balancing on the gators as they fight other things.

Not if you apply the same principle to every model. Does Lilith stay in her almost pinup pose, with her broadsword over her head, everywhere? Does the Dreamer cart that little monster around everywhere, always holding that one hand?

All miniature poses are snapshots at any one point of time. The Gators with the Gremlins are at a point when they're attacking Gremlins.

I get that some people don't like those mid-action type poses that include other models, but the argument of 'do they cart that other model everywhere' is a bit silly when you obviously don't expect, say, the Mature Nephilim to walk around in his 'come at me, bro!' pose everywhere and anywhere.

Additionally, the Bayou Gators unit are the alligators themselves. The Gremlins are just decorations to thematically tie the models in with the Gremlins faction. They don't do any of the fighting.

Neverborn take the cake, imho!
Look at those monsters *___*
The dude in the middle will have a head transplant though, if I ever lay my fingers upon a box with him in it.

The GenCon stuff is available in the webstore right now.

Bought myself the Wild Ones (loved the models), Ice Dancers (for my Raspy and Collette), and the free Miss Fire (I've always hated the silly Willie model).

Debating the Wild Ones. Something that's annoying and surely on purpose is that that's not quite enough to get Miss Fire, so I probably want to get something else to qualify...

Perhaps, but you could always pick up a $10 Fate Deck or $9 Arsenal Deck or $10 Generalist Upgrade Deck and pretend it's part of the bundle.

There are also $5 bases available: http://giveusyourmoneypleasethankyou-wyrd.com/collections/bases-accessories

You can pretend the Wild Ones set is actually $100 even and you're getting translucent bases.

Grabbed the Wild Ones for hobby reasons and Sparky for my gremlins. No interest in Miss Fire but my buddy is covering shippung because he has been hot for it since it was previewed. Lots of other stuff I want, but I'll hold out for retail.

Done and done. The Queen Returns, Mysterious Emmisary and Jaakuna Ubume. I can wait for the book to hit the shelves, since the shipping increase would have meant I was paying nearly $90 for a book I'll get locally for $60.

Went without The Wild Ones for various reasons.

I dunno, I was trying to assemble an Austringer last night. Tiny, separate bird legs that have to connect not just to the bird but the arm too. Multiple separate bits of rope to align...

Some pre-assembly isn't necessarily a bad thing with Wyrd!
