Popular Post Kyle Posted October 27, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 Hey Wyrdos, This week, Waldo decided to go to the library. While we were thrilled to find out he knew what a library was, when we found him eating all the cooking books, we were just as confused and unfulfilled as his stomach. At least he was quiet about it. So, while we clean up what’s left, let’s take a look at something brand new coming out! Over the 15+ years, we here at Wyrd Games have created hundreds of miniatures and characters, each with their own stories that have helped shape the worlds of our games. To look back at these periods of time in our alternate history, we are celebrating by bringing some of those moments to life in epic fashion with the Iconic line of sculpts. Each Iconic box includes a large-scale, high-quality model that showcases a pivotal moment in their story – in this timeline or the next. To start, we are stepping through the Breach to witness a moment in Malifaux history. Without further ado, here is a look at the first Iconic box, Scorch the Soul: Scorch the Soul features Sonnia Criid in the Yellow Crypt after she has captured a sorcerer who has tapped into the magical aether emanating from the world of Malifaux. Turning their power inward, Sonnia sears their minds and turns them into something else entirely: a Witchling Thrall. This Iconic box includes this incredible piece of art of Sonnia breaking an Arcanist mage down as a 75mm sculpt that will look fantastic painted up and showcased on your shelf. This model will come in unassembled hard PVC so that the fine details will be kept without the complexity of building a large model. Some (but not all) Iconic boxes will also include a playable version of that character that is fully compatible with Malifaux Third Edition. Included in Scorch the Soul is a preassembled and Malifaux-scaled version of Sonnia that is ready to hit the table. An M3E stat card for the original Sonnia will also be included. Let’s take a look at the difference in scale by comparing the two: While most of the Iconic line will be coming out in 2022, Sonnia’s Scorch the Soul box will be reaching local game store shelves this December! You’ll be able to pick up this piece of Malifaux history for just $55! Stay tuned, because we've got a video of the ever-talented Angel Giraldez painting up this Sonnia coming soon! We’ve got a lot more of these Iconic boxes coming, so keep an eye out for future Waldo’s Weeklies! 8 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pallas4 Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 original Sonnia? She's unmasked I don't understand why the Malifaux scaled version is preassembled and not the bigest version. ^^ I wonder who'll be the next. Maybe a Tara? I always wanted a lady with a big hole in the chest in my house xD (... eeeh.. ^^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adran Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 That explains those similar looking sculpts in the GenCon pictures. I like the idea of these. I'm not sure I have the time to paint up the larger display pieces, but I'm very happy to guess who will eb chosen and what moments they might have chosen. Is there a Story inside about the moment or do we just have to guess what is happening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufess Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 Cannot found the pictures now, but there were 4 sculpts, Sonnia, Seamus, Titania and a lady with a big bird, shown in last Gencon. I guess the last one is an Arcanist because of faction of 4 suits, but cannot match the sculpt to any master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muraki Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 It looked like a female nikodem as it had a vulture on her shoulder, but was never confirmed what it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Sells Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 I believe it was confirmed not to be Nicodem in the discord, there was also a suggestion that some of the sculpts might be of alternate universe versions of characters.

Vangerdahast Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 If the Lady with a bird is arcanist, maybe Colette and a Dove? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 I'm intrigued, though not a good enough painter to have a display piece. Can't wait to see what other models they come out with. I'm curious how the whole 'Some (but not all) Iconic boxes will also include a playable version of that character that is fully compatible with Malifaux Third Edition." means in practice? Are they marked as containing them or is it a random thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or it could be female Marcus or Myranda. Animals+arcanists says Chimera to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fire5tone Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 ok, so nathan came into the discord to give us a hint as to who she is, the box is named "the path not taken" so. (and this wasnt my suggestion originally twas fluff) current theory is that thats justice if she went full resser. or more likely, justice if she lost vs nico, whether resurrected or possessed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every sonnia one will have the little sonnia, but the Marcus one may not have one for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chou Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 Great news! And here I was thinking what to paint after finishing my fifth faction, it's time to go big! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butch Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 Awesome! I painted one 75mm model so far - and learned it's not my favorite scale. But still I can't wait to paint those models! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordcarveriii Posted October 29, 2021 Report Share Posted October 29, 2021 Will there be an iconic sculpt for every master at some point, or just some? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
