Shadowdragon Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Anyone have any ideas for what the crew boxes will contain for Ulix, Mah Tucket, and Wong? From the upgrades I'm guessing something like: Ulix Penelope Old Major Gracie Piglets ? (even though they're from wave 1) Mah Tucket The Little Lass Trixiebelle ? Wong Loveley Assistant ?

zFiend Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 I don't think Ulix will include Gracie, probably not piglets either. May Tucket will probably have Bayou Bushwackers as well. Wong, Lightning Bugs. That would be my guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surly Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 The Sow could be another good addition for the Ulix box I guess. Maybe even War Pigs, although I don't hope so Mancha Roya (no idea how he was spelled) could maybe show up somewhere in Wong or Mah too ...

Adran Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 My guess is Mancha Roja either isn't in Wongs box, or it wasn't a planned box layout last june, as his upgrades aren't on the Wong page of Crossroads. Its not a rule, but its slightly unusual. Otherwise I think Math is probably pretty close to spot on. Bert and/or Gracie might be in Wongs box, as it needs something more than just him, the assistant and the bugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinn Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 My guesses: Ulix Penelope Old Major The Sow 2 Wild Boars Mah Tucket Lil Lass Trixiebelle 3 Bayou Bushwhackers Wong Lovely Assistant Mancha Roja 3 Lightning Bugs I unconditionally agree with Mah Tucket and Wong. But I think that such Ulix Crew Box would be a bit too much. Most Crew Boxes have Master, Totem, Henchman and usually 3 30mm models. But this one would have 1 50mm and 2 40mm models instead.

Patzer Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 My guesses: Ulix Penelope Old Major The Sow 2 Wild Boars Mah Tucket Lil Lass Trixiebelle 3 Bayou Bushwhackers Wong Lovely Assistant Mancha Roja 3 Lightning Bugs I think you are spot on with Wong and Mah. I will challenge your assumption about the Ulix box though. My guess is 3 Piglets, Penelope, Ol' M, Sow, Ulix. Then again, the Sow might be a separate... Time will tell I guess (Set release date: before Brewmaster). I unconditionally agree with Mah Tucket and Wong. But I think that such Ulix Crew Box would be a bit too much. Most Crew Boxes have Master, Totem, Henchman and usually 3 30mm models. But this one would have 1 50mm and 2 40mm models instead There are quite a few boxes that doesn't fit that mould. Marcus, Ramos, Hoffman, Kirai, Dreamer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinn Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 There are quite a few boxes that doesn't fit that mould. Marcus, Ramos, Hoffman, Kirai, Dreamer... Yeah... you are right. Claw and Fang - Marcus Crew Box has: - Master - Totem - Henchman - 50mm Enforcer - 40mm Enforcer - 40mm Minion That looks like Ulix Crew Box Mat Mathonwy described. Sir, I owe you an apology. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinn Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Of Pigs and Gremlins - Ulix Crew Box Box Contents: - Ulix - Penelope - Old Major - The Sow - 2 Wild Boars 50 USD Confirmed! Also... Half Life 3 to be released in early 2015. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Math Mathonwy Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 I did indeed try to match Ulix to Marcus and Hoffman style boxes.I doubt that they would have Piglets there since they are now releasing the Piglets separate. Starter boxes haven't contained already released models (Wong will be making an exception there, though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebarbalag Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Here's hoping all of these pig releases are getting us primed for a February Ulix release. Or Mah. Or Brewmaster. Seriously, I'll take any Gremlins crew box. Guild has all of theirs. Neverborn and Ressers (sorta) all but one. Ten Thunders and Outcasts (sorta) all but two. Arcanists are missing three. We really need some Gremlin love. That said, I think Math is probably right on the money. I might guess three Wild Boars and the Sow gets her own box, but the Marcus parallel makes quite a bit of sense, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kofibrake Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 I am just wondering where will they throw the Bayou gator - should it show as a minion to a crew box or a standalone like Gracie? it does seem to have good synergy with Mctavish, which is another question mark as to where he would fit.

thebarbalag Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 I think we'll just see a box of three gators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vorschlag Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 As others have said I pretty much agree with Math Mathonwy apart from the Ulix box. I would be surprised if he got the Sow and Old Major in his box, I think this would be uneconomical for Wyrd. I think probably one or the other and then either the boars or piglets, Maybe the taxidermist but not so sure of that either since he seems likes a separate purchase similar to the hog whisperer.

Bengt Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Mah Tucket Lil Lass Trixiebelle 3 Bayou Bushwhackers Wong Lovely Assistant Mancha Roja 3 Lightning Bugs These feels really light at $50, especially Mah with 1 Ht 2 and 5 Ht 1 models. And assuming Mancha is the same size as Lenny the Wong box would still be 2 Ht 1 models short of the Bayou Boss box. I expect them to "fill up" the boxes to match a $50 price.

Although the Ht really wouldn't matter that much it seems to be more balanced on "amount of plastic content" that ht or SS. Ht1 lighting bugs mate be larger than normal ht1 models because of the sculpted blasts and explosions that are in the artwork Kirai box is example of this at only 14ss or so out the box. FWIW I predict: Mah Lass Trixiebelle 3x bushwhackers (If you think that's low compote to brewy art work) Ulix Penelope Old major 2 wild boars Wong Assistant 3x bugs And honestly probably sammy. Single pack boxes of: Sow Mancha 3 gators Mctavish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D6Damager Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Wonder if Ulix might come with stuffed piglets instead of wild boars? Or will they bundle it with the taxidermist (similar to the new hog whisperer)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengt Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Kirai box is example of this at only 14ss or so out the box. What does the SS cost have to do with anything? Vengeful Spirits have 4 human sized models, 2 smaller models and Ikiryo who is massive. Fun fact, the box doesn't close properly because the sprue is too large.

Typically the crew boxes came to 25-35ss before kirai meaning they were playable as stand alone straight out the box. I did say that the boxes seem to be weighed on plastic content rather than model ht or ss cost though. Before kirai release you could safely assume that any box would contain an average of 30ss worth of models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before kirai release you could safely assume that any box would contain an average of 30ss worth of models. Ht is interesting because it gives a hint of how large a model will be (though with the scale problems of late it's perhaps not as large a hint as one would like ). And yes, most boxes are in that SS range (the median is 27) but I think Kirai, Dreamer, and Ramos show that they are prepared to step quite a bit outside that to fill a sprue. Also the whole Master + totem + enforcer/henchman + 3 minions formula was much more common early on, later boxes have more exceptions than not.

decker_cky Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I think the Sow will come with a couple of piglets too (making 6 separate piglet models). Can't see it coming without, since piglets are so essential to running the Sow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinn Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 6 separate Piglet models?! Dear Glob, if you can hear me... I never asked for anything, please let it be true, please let DECKER_CKY be right. My palms are sweaty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vorschlag Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 That ignores the existing 1.5 piglets who will probably now be the runts of the litter compared to the new plastics meaning another three piglets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
