Teal Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Am I the only one frothing at the mouth to play her? Even with the scant amount of information that we have, I've fallen in love with the minis and the small blurb on the box set. I'm hoping that the Mannequins aren't just an alternate Performer model, and me and one of my friends spent a bit discussing various possibilities for how the showgirls and mannequins interact, but even so, I just can't stop pouring over these models. So anyone else as excited as I am or have any guesses about how these ladies work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omenbringer Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Finally an arcanist model I am eager to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas Albrecht Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 I think my girlfriend almost died when she saw the models. She's an Arcanist, but she's never had a subfaction that really popped for her until now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dance Commander Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 There was nothing about her box group I did not like. Each of the models look beautiful and I have a feeling they're going to be a great construct group to run alongside Ramos. Also, the ideas of what can be done with illusions and puppetry just seem appealing to me. All that being said, definitely making sure I have money set aside for her when she's released.

Melnibonean Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 +1 from me too. A great looking crew and I'll be getting them as soon as I can. Even if I can't work them out and play them like crap I'll still field them just because I like the look and concept. A bit like why I like Seamus... I've never quite managed to get the play style quite right but I just like the look of the crew and the concept. Winning doesn't always matter, playing a great game with great models is 80% of the game for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoeIsMe Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 i am not a fan of the arcanists as they are now but when i saw Colette and crew my jaw dropped. the minis look superb and the concept sounds like something i would enjoy alot. i may break away from the neverborn yet....

Chucklemonkey Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Agree with most of the comments in this thread. I have no Arcanist master - despite having a soft spot for Tina - but Colette is a must buy for me, stunning models, and I am intrigued by how the mannequins will work.

Ivellis Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Illusion is like the password to unlocking my interest in something. Whether it is a movie, a book, a game or a crew in Malifaux. Bring on the showgirls and their deadly mannequins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shekbo Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 They really are going to be interesting. I love the look of the mannequin models, personally not as big a fan of the showgirls, but they do look cool. Another pleasant surprise from Wyrd!

13th Warrior Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Up until now I hadn't really bothered about the Arcanists. A passing interest in 'Tina was about it. But these! I just love the models, and they're going to be great fun to play. Add in a Coryphee or 2 and I know exactly who my next Master will be.:dancing2: Just amazing :elefant: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 She was one of the hardest crews to finalize the rules for, I think because we really wanted to make the rules reflect how cool the miniatures were shaping up to be. Let hope we managed it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadin Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 They certainly have me interested, I am eager to see their rules. Any chance of getting a sneak preview of Coletta before Gencon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakrulz55 Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 well sign me up for this faction the models are beyond amazing. plus this looks like the one faction for the arcanist id enjoy painting and playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redstripe Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Each of the models look beautiful and I have a feeling they're going to be a great construct group to run alongside Ramos. A Ramos and Collette team up would also represent their storyline well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus Khan Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 A Ramos and Collette team up would also represent their storyline well. Yet another reason I will be buying Colette at Gencon... As an avid Ramos player, I can't wait to see that fluff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icemantis99 Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Oooooh, does Ramos have a Rusty Alyce he can actually stand now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extinction Angel Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 When I first heard about this game and read the descriptions of the different factions, I was sure I would end up playing an Arcanist crew. Turns out I just couldn't find a fit with any of the current ones. The Showgirls are much more close to what I was wanting from the arcanists. I truly can't wait to give these demented divas a shot. Any chance Myranda works well with these showstoppers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svenn Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 I think my girlfriend almost died when she saw the models. She's an Arcanist, but she's never had a subfaction that really popped for her until now. Sounds familiar... I've been trying to get my girlfriend to play. She really liked the Hoarcat Pride, Sabertooth Cerberus, and a few other Arcanist models, but she wasn't really into a full group. I showed her these and now she wants them badly.

icemantis99 Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Is it just me, or do Colette and Shamus shop at the same hat store? Also, where can I find the Malifaux Hat store? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ropetus Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Also, where can I find the Malifaux Hat store? You should ask the Mad Hatter, I wonder if there was one in this world ^^. -Ropetus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extinction Angel Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Just like hairstyle in anime! Can any of the beta peeps give some vague allusions as to whether Colette will work well with any Book 1 stuff, or will it be better to keep her working with book 2 minions?

NDA's still in effect, so no. :tapedshut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sobek Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Quoting something along the lines that someone posted about the new Resurrectionist Master, it's probably safe to say this about Colette without giving anything away that would violate NDA. Colette's playstyle will be very unique and challenging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
