See I play Gremlins and I got married inbetween, even getting more models. What does this means? Well, I guess Gremlins help!

Perhaps, but we're you trying to  buy a house  and get married  at the same time? Maybe  she'll  be  amicable to the  idea of living in a  barn...

Were-pigs!?! Ok it's official. I will be adding gremlins to the list of factions I play. *Sigh* My fiance is going to kill me.

I love those blind prisoners. "Curse Wyrd! It wants it all it does, my precious!"

Very cool. I wish this book had come out before  my players  had made their  characters.  I have  a  feeling we'd  have ended up playing  a gremlins campaign instead of a humans campaign. 

I'm  certain  this has  already been  addressed  somewhere  on this forum  but I can't  find it. The tortise and hare twisted alternatives are listed as a prerelease but the box says special   edition. Will it be a permanent regular item for sale or does it have the potential  to  go the way of  miss terious where if you missed it at gencon you will never be able to  get it again barring  paying  exorbitant scalper prices, which  I refuse to do  just on principal. No I'm  not  bitter.

Ramen is too expensive.  I'm looking at foraging for flowers and grass clippings from the neighbor's lawn.

I've  heard  dandelions  are  quite tasty and plentiful. An excellent  thought.

Idea #1

Jakob Lynch = A honey loving bear, preferably pantless

Hungry Darkness = A honey creature

Mr. Graves = An angry rabbit

Mr. Tannen = A hyperactive tiger

Depleted = A small pig

Illumintated = A wise owl

Beckoner = A small boy

Stitched Together = A sad donkey (because all luck is bad luck)

Idea #2

With Wyrd coming with alternate Crews, maybe they could expand on them in Twisted Alternatives.

Like a Circus Performer version of Angelica. Or Biker Gang Wastrels. Or even Dead Justice Exorcists. 

Biker gang  wastrals  would  be  especially  awesome  since you currently  can't  buy them separately.

What might be fun as a Black Friday release is a two-player Story Encounter box based on The Nutcracker.  Personally, I'm thinking the Nutcracker (alt Vasilisa, perhaps) and 3x toy soldiers (alt Wicked Dolls) vs.  the Mouse King (alt sculpt Rat King) and some mouse minions as alt Malifaux Rats.

I dunno.  The exact composition needs some work, but I think it could be pretty cool.

I like the alt rats idea. I've  been  racking my brain on how to make the extra 4 I got from the brotherhood box set unique  from the 4 I've  already  painted. 

Aww man, I don't  even  play gremlins  and I want that box set. Curse you wyrd! They're  all  too good! The Neverborn  one in particular  is phenomenal. Still hoping to see those creepy  little  children fae  from the mysterious  effigy plant come in play  some day though.

I have asked this question before. The issue is that the wastrels are scattered throughout the sprue and cant be separated. They will have to be remodeled to get its own box and I bet that is not worth doing as they are not the best models in the world.

Not the best models? What are you taking  about? They look so cool! The 3 male wastrels  with the alt. miss wastrel looks great on the table  top IMO. Or are you  referring  to  strategy?

Completely agree.    Thanks to Wyrd for not put the wastrels in there.  If it wasn't for the Mounted Guards I'd also be skipping this box.  I'm sure whatever the price will be it will be more than I wanted to pay for a duplicate McCabe crew.  Getting cool models and two Mounted Guards means I'll probably be able to rationalize buying it.

I'm on the opposite  side of the fence  on this. While  I  love the input of mounted guards as dislike  horses, I don't  want to  have  to buy the McCabe set just to get the wastrals. Miss wastral was awesome, but her variations  are too similar  to  justify fielding  her multiple times  IMO. Any chance wyrd will put out wastrals as a separate  boxes set like the witchlings? 

As I don't  have  the McCabe set (didn't like the look of it) and hate  horses this box set was custom designed specifically  for  me! Wyrd, how did you know?!? Love it!

About time we saw some penny-farthings. Awesome. 

Exibit A - From left to right miniature ordered by number - 1. Nurse - Replace the massive syringe with an Anhk;  2. Chihuahua - Remove the hand  and add muscles to the under belly; 3. McMourning -  replace the pocket of tools with a pocket of stakes/crosses. Have him holding the head as if just decapitated. ; 4. Sebastian -  remove the bone saw and have his arm pulling a cape over his face. ; 5. Flesh Construct - This one is too obvious to bother mentioning; 6. Nurse - Give her a beehive hairdo and you're golden. 

The titans will officially justify me purchasing a decent airbrush. I will be broke when this game comes out! 

I think it'd be cool to do an alternates crew box based on the old classic horrors : i.e. Wolfman, The Mummy, Frankenstein, Creature from the black lagoon, Dracula etc. 

I think you could do this easily with many crew boxes but this is just a fun example - McMourning crew:  Frankenstein - Flesh construct; Dr. McMourning - Van Helsing; Dracula - Sebastian; Wolfman - Zombie chihuahua (a tiny wolfman would be hilarious); Nurse 1 - Mummy/Mommy; Nurse 2 - Creature from Black Lagoon  or Bride of Frankenstein?

Jeebus, those things are huge. 

There  is  definitely  a  scale difference.  Poor Pandora  is about to be eaten  for lunch by that dragon.

I am curious now we seem to have the Master and the minions as to what the totem and henchman are likely to be for this crew box.

If  I  had to guess on a totem I'd  think a tripod and old fashioned accordion style camera but mechanized like ramos  spider bots. That'd  be  cool. Hoffmann  would be  jealous. 

Interesting.  Nice to see some more  ethnic  diversity in the masters. Mechanics  seem sound.  On a side  note, go Outcasts!

Those sleeves... they're just made out of problems. Yes, asian fashions often had crazy sleeves, but no, they looked nothing like that. Kirai's triangular and layered ones are pretty reasonable examples. I don't think I've ever seen anyone outside a racist stereotype wear ones like those, though. I think the hooks are ridiculous, but that's just taste.

I don't  know about Japanese  culture  but in Chinese culture  they have a  type of dance that  utilizes  dresses with sleeves  4 feet  long or more. It's  a beautiful art form. Twist it malifaux style  by adding hooks and it fits this character  very well. On a side  note ,  I don't  understand  all the hate on the face. I actually  quite like it.

Three? Holy shorts! Hope at least one is female so I can convert/paint her to look like the Vagary from Doom 3 (thanks, Matt!).

there was also a picture on Facebook showing three renders on the back, then rumour has it that it might drop down to two... as they also removed the renders from the picture on the upcoming releases page.  I really hope it stays at three as all of the renders are really cool!  They are all male too.

I'm  hoping wyrd will do a female  as an alternate if it's true they're  all  males like what they did with miss step or terious. I'm  envisioning a spider themed  army now. There's  a  lot  of  spider like creations spread over the different factions. *sigh* Now I have to go make a list.

Ok so ten thunders  is the only faction that I haven't  been  feeling  to date. Even yan lo as a duel faction resser couldn't sway me and my first loyalty is to the ressers. However,  a creepy (and I mean "creepy") Japanese  horror  styled crew...well that actually  has my interest  piqued. I am fond of the resser kirai stuff so far. Wyrd you might have just swayed me.

Arcanists are only 20 votes behind? Ooo this could be a close one. I confess I'm a Resser who was trying to swing the vote to the Arcanists, but it looks like the TT might have this one. I blame the holiday for the lack of numbers.

While personally I hate horses, and I'm not liking a master that's likely to be on a 50mm base - too big a target, I do love the nun concept and the rend does look pretty cool. The abilities seem intriguing too. As a resser first and foremost Wyrd hasn't disappointed, though Gorgon would have been awesome.
