Maogrim Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 Greetings, everyone! I put together the last pieces for my Honeypot keyword with soothing Victorian Era ambience music playing in the background and I have to say: Gwyneth Maddox, Malifaux's most charming Luck Thief, gave me quite a hard time! Lots of small, fiddly bits like glueing hands to wrists, or the tiny derringer.. It felt like The Party Never Ends. And the assembly instructions didn't help all that much, since they only show the front and, well it's a 2D picture trying to explain how to put together a 3D sculpt. And they don't give you the correct sequence, which resulted in me having to rip off part of her skirt again before it was completely glued to the rest. She turned out fine in the end though, thanks to my girlfriend having smaller and more skilled hands than me. I suppose I might just not be as skilled or well-equipped as some of you guys, but this one was seriously hard. And I'm not looking forward to Youko.. Well, what about you? Any stories to share on Malifaux assembly nightmares? Which sculpts did you find the hardest to put together? PS: Still utterly love the models, even Gwyneth! ❤ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPieChee Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 The head of the gremlin with the pigapult! Three pieces for such a small head! Ridiculous. (Made worse by the tiny sprue vs big box and high price tag) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 The Goryo and their spirits were...challenging.... to figure out correct placements. Any model with heads in more than one (maybe two) pieces should have been rethought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harlekin Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 As somebody who got used to assembling the late 2N/early 3N metal miniatures for Infinity I always consider Malifaux miniatures a walk in the park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufess Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 The cats from nightmare Hamelin box, slightly bigger than a human head while split into 3 parts. The worst part is that they come in transparent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regelridderen Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 The insidious Madness makes absolutely no sense, when you get them off the sprue. But Howard Langston has been my biggest nightmare - in fact I’m still struggling with gis mechatentacles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
