birdbath Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 I really want a Viks crew but if I remember rightly Wyrd had a scale issue when first released at GenCon. Does anyone know if this issue has been resolved? Thanks, BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocSchlock Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Wyrd said it was resolved for the general release, and it was a miscommunication with their tooling (mold-making) company. Was mentioned somewhere in the forums in the past two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 It was fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 I've been trying to find the thread with the post where I thought Nathan said it was fixed. Then I realised it's now this one. Bonus! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacms Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 But will the ones who got their out of scales boxes be able to return them for the new one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emberlost Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 But will the ones who got their out of scales boxes be able to return them for the new one? Wyrd has said they'd do something for those that bought the mis-scaled Viks, but no idea what yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11th Thunder Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Did it apply to all the Gencon boxes - I didn't notice anything odd about mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rathnard Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 But will the ones who got their out of scales boxes be able to return them for the new one? Why on earth would you want to return it? They'll be collectors items now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Why on earth would you want to return it? They'll be collectors items now. Good thing I play the game than collect the models. I don't want my out-of-scale minis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Shine Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Yeah, I did a hack job on the thighs of mine to try and bring them down to size, it looks very silly when the rest of the crew only comes up to their chest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manic Mouse Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) I don't want my over-scaled Viks either, it would be nice for Wyrd to communicate the "something" that they're doing for those of us with them. I can't even build mine if I wanted to - my Vik of Blood is missing her head which I sent a report about at the time to no avail. Will the new head be out of scale, if I ever get a replacement (which is looking doubtful)? Honestly at this point I think I'm just going to order another Viks set with the new stuff they have on sale at the moment. Don't really mind giving Wyrd the extra money, it will help me towards that Santana, but it would be nice to have a bit of info as to what's going on.

Helm Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 The only bit that I'd like is a Vik of Ashes in the new scale. A trio of giantess Ronin? Whatever, people can be big. Identical twins at different sizes? That's something I'd like a fix for. Apart from the Vik of Ashes, I'm very happy with my misprint set!

Manic Mouse Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Interesting fact: identical twins can be born very different sizes due to a condition called twin-twin transfusion syndrome involving their shared placenta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, that's not something I knew! I suppose it is a possibility that the Doppelganger copying Viktoria was the incompetent one who was forcibly given the short straw. "Who'll we send to attempt to assassinate and replace this trained killer? Who's good enough to take her on with zero support when we know she uses an incredibly rare and powerful magical weapon?"

Manic Mouse Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Well the sale is up, so I'm ordering another Viks box set. The question is now what to do with my oversized ladies with their headless Bloody sister? Chop them up for body part counters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anaxiamander Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 I know I'll eventually be in the market for an oversized Viks pack, just to have a piece of the history of M2E. I just know I won't be able to go hunting until after Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
