  1. I believe the minis are very well detailed, maybe less exagerrated though. The new plastic allows for some crazy dynamic poses and is much easier to work with.

    I'm very satisfied by it and love the fact that folds are shallower. Real clothes don't fold that deep to leave crevasses for washes :)

    You do need to be careful though because some parts are extremely small and delicate. The ashigarus's spears and Yan lo's staff are examples of this.

    I'm currently building the Yan Lo crew and I'm digging all the details in the armor and the tiny flute the niece is playing.

    Awesome stuff IMO

    The models are great no doubt, but I do penalize them heavily on their fragility. honestly I would rather have a more solid less dynamic model than the other way round. Lucas is being difficult with my normal methods of model storage. I had to re-glue the chains on the bald wastrel three times for it to stick...

    Unless its for display only they have to be more solid or you get the Will Smith in Men in Black

    "I feel like I'm gonna break this damn thing."

  2. at first, it wasnt fragile, ie yamaziko's yari, but then it become obvious when something would snap. Personally, i am ok with loss of detail over paying more. i recall a majority of the reason to move to plastic was that metal got so expensive, the cheaper medium only got the price to stay the same

    Agreed I would rather have models that I would be able to throw at my opponent and do some damage should I lose the game.

    Sportmanship smortsmanship

  3. Personally I am an old school gamer and I prefer metal, it give the model that heft that makes it feel worth it. Some models imho should have been done metal eg. Both Lucas Mccabes, who are a very dainty 'don't breath on him wrong or he will break model' I don't see any reason why they wouldn't continue to release blisters in the future even if the models are done in plastic, worked for GW and that finecrap stuff.

  4. Just got back into miniature wargaming and I have to say I remember why I had to take such a long hiatus. With roomates (space issues) and work I spend so much time away from the hobby. Just want to paint my models! Anyone else find it hard to keep the hobby alive?

  5. We're out of stock in the store usually because we keep supplying distributors before we put it back in our store - as of late that seems to be a quick merry go round of come in and go out.

    Just because something isn't available in the online store at the moment doesn't mean that it'll be showing up in plastic directly - that line of thought will lead to some disappointed folks.

    :)

    Awesome Possum thanks for the update

  6. Hello all,

    Just recently got the Malifaux bug again and jumped back into the hobby. Looks like just in time to brush up before 2E. I love the fluff, the feel and the intriguing game rules.

    On a side note I was wondering if the store is typically out of stock on so many items?

  7. Malifaux is my new happy place I love what i saw on the website and due to GW's inability to set prices normal people can afford i hope to stay awhile. I do have a question, I am a massive fluff junkie and could not seem to order the fluff filled goodness that is the original rulebook. My FLGS told me that a new edition was being released which made it moot to order the old one. However I cannot seem to find any news of a new edition, so i actually have two questions.

    1) is there somewhere that i have not yet to find with all of the original fluff?

    and

    2) is there a new edition coming out or is it another expansion book?

    Phew thats a lot from a newbie but any info is appreciated! I look forward to all the awesomeness that Malifaux has to offer
