Wyrd January Releases

[Nathan Caroland]

January sees the release of four new miniatures for the Wyrd Malifaux line. Three bolster the growing ranks of the Arcanists and one for the frightful forces of the Neverborn, a behemoth which just made the swamps of Malifaux that much more dangerous.

Available now!

Great selection of long awaited minis.

Excellent paint job on each of them, and a big Congratulations to Eric for finishing the Steamborg and proving to us that he still can paint!

[Nathan Caroland]

Just a heads up, the Steamborg is a big fella, taking up the whole of a 50mm base though he is quite easily put together as Muller did a fantastic job on him.

The Mire Golem is our biggest and heaviest piece to date, also on a 50mm base though Saunders did a wonderful job with how this piece goes together and we've been able to save some metal due to the joins of this piece, though again, a dream to go together, something we've been working hard on for some time.

The Razorspine Rattler is a bigger piece but being a snake it is also thinner, thus the reason for its size but the cost affectiveness of this one as well. I've included a picture to show the size relation between Myranda and the Razorspine.

And now some raw green photos, as we're always asked after about these. The arms are seperate at the mechanical joints though they are shown together here.

Myranda was sculpted by Gael Goumon as I'm certain you'll readily attain by his trademark orange background. :D

And the Razorspine Rattler 'green'. The upper teeth had to be cast seperately due to mold issues. Don't toss them thinking they are flash or you'll have a toothless wonder! Sculpted by Steve Saunders.

OK!

I need all four. I'm an Arcanist first and foremost but the Neverborn are certainly in second place and the Mire Golem is very sweet looking.

The Steamborg is so sexy though! WHOOO BOY! Needs me one (Or two!) of those BADLY!

[thetang22]

I just checked the quantity available for each of them and noticed that Wyrd prepared for the Steamborg to be a BIG seller, which we all know it will. There are 999 available :)

[Keltheos]

DROOL, SLOBBER, DROOL.

I can't find a reason to not get all 4 of those!! Awesome!

[thewartoad]

I have the first 2 and have been waiting feverishly for the Steamborg. And I just put in my order for 1! The Mire Golem is soon? I have mini's on sale through Ebay, I got most of them as gifts but I know there ones I won't get around to painting...so they're looking for a good home! Cheers.

[thewartoad]

OOPS...forgot something...FANTASTIC paint jobs by all involved, as well as the sculpts!

[Wren]

Great looking pieces! It's great that you put so much attention into ease of assembly.

[TheBugKing]

The most important thing to realize is that EricJ painted the Steamborg! Hooray for picking up the brush again Eric!

[Moavoamoatu]

They are awesome...I need them all. BTW it will be hard to paint for Iron painter when we see such high painting standards.

[waghorn41]

Just love Myranda and the snake

[Thryth]

Very nice releases, and well-done studio paint.

I know that I should know, but is Jessica Rich someone from this site?

[Muskie]

The spider guy and the tree thing are great. Especially the spider guy, gotta figure out a way to use him. Is that model multiple pieces, say torso seperate from lower body...

The mind spins...

[TheBugKing]

It certainly is different pieces. Each leg is separate at the very least. It looks like the two arms are as well.

[EricJ]

steamborg is 9 pieces

4 legs
lower body
upper body
2 arms
1 scissor blade

It goes together quite easily and holds together nicely, I still pinned it all, but now it's rock solid

[Nathan Caroland]

@Thryth

Jessica Rich is our very own Brushmistress.

@Muskie

Thanks for the compliments, its appreciated. If you look at some of the earlier posts here you'll see a break down of the Steamborg. His body is separate from the lower chassis as well as two arms and four spider legs and everything goes together rather well. The legs join the chassis on ball joints so they can be moved around a bit as well for more stylized movement.

@Everyone

Thanks!

[Peterdita]

Well its about damn time!!! :p:

Nah for real, thanks for getting these out. Can't wait to order them when I get home. Been waiting on these for a while now. Wooooooo Whooooo!!!

Where's my debt card?

[Skya]

Mmmmmm goodies. I love the cyborg, Though I fully intend to use him minus the human bits. The Razor snaky thing is great as well, I look forward to menacing my Shadowrun players with it. And speaking of Shadowrun Myranda's gonna make a perfect Shadowrun shaman.

[Larkin Vain]

Wow... I'm lost for words... these are just too awesome!

[matty1001]

Excellent stuff, posted a link to these on my often randomly updated blog.

(Oooooo PIMPED!)

Peace and love...

[St. Anger]

And to think... I almost had my credit card paid off...

I will have to order one of each...

Great stuff, Thank you Nathan!!!

[Isoulle]

Amazing stuff... I am very impressed...

I actually had this exact same thought, because the bottom spidery part looks so awesome. And you actually will likely be able to get exactly that as a future release from wyrd, with some mechanically part stuck on top instead of the human bits

[EricJ]

oh, PS, if you want to vote for Steamy on Cmon:

thanks!

[nerdelemental]

Holy mother of god. Now I have to pick up the friggin' Arcanists in addition to the Guild. I've been super tempted every week, but now it's official. "Army Brat" is no longer in my dreams...the buns on this new model - you could bounce quarters off of that tush.

[Nathan Caroland]

Appreciate the pimping and the comments!

[Draykin]

Great Googely Moogely those are sexy minis!!

I may have to start the Arcanists now as well....

[TheBugKing]

HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH!!!!!

You all scoffed at the Arcanists but now that the shiny is here you are all lamenting you measly second best first choices!

Come! Come over to the Arcanist side! We have cookies! (And Steamborgs that can take Seamus' head off in one hit. No small thing!)

[thetang22]

They were all bound to turn around sooner or later once they saw the faction start to flesh out. It is the best faction after all. Thats not an opinion either ;)

[Draykin]

I forgot to ask.... the new figs look Fan-Freekin-Tastic!!
But!
How do they fit in a carry case?
PP had some beautiful figs but they never fit in my cases all that well.... Does the 'borg fit in a case for transit to games alright?

[Nathan Caroland]

I guess it really depends on what type of carrying case you have. We use the Army Transport Cases by Sabol Designs and they work out great. Tear out the section of foam you don't need, put the figure in, fit a bit of foam about it. Considering a lot of our miniatures for the shows are display or diorama pieces it works out nicely.

[Skya]

Perfect! I needs must have patience then....

[DeafNala]

VERY NICE STUFF! The Spider Guy & the Swamp Thing [looks kind of Fen Beastish] are my personal favorites in the quartet. The Babe is cool & what not to like about an Ubersnake. Now I'm off to pull that bank heist. :gunman:

[elzaeer]

VERY NICE STUFF!!! Ilove it the mistress ! In when rules to play with these magnificent mini? One can have the luck to make the test beta in France?

[A Luna]

I just ordered the Snaky thingy and the trol thing:P I'm very bad with names and I'm new with Wyrd miniatures

There's always a way...

But I hear you - my Legion of Everblight army has two seraph and two Angelii and there's not a foam tray made for those damned Angels. Literally a third of a tray just for one, and a big 3.5-4" tray at that. Very irritating. But I loves me my Angelii.

[elzaeer]

J have to crack (fail,tear)! J bought the maitresse and its pet + pedestal to make well!! :D

[Morf]

Try magnetic bases - you are spending some money on them but saving yourself from serious frustrations.

Very nice job on great deal of them, Steamboreg just kicks their ass.

[Darklord]

well those four are probably my favourite of all the wyrd minis (well except those goblins perhaps!).
now was the steamborg inspired by the guy in monsters inc?

[Peterdita]

Cracking up @ "Bad Juju"

Sweet name!!!

...you guys are good...

[Maestro]

Oh my.. That Cyborg is amazing..

Must. Resist. Buying. More. Mini's...

Dang.. Oh well, at least this time the price of failure is only some $20.- :o:

[EricJ]

give in...you'll like it :D

[thetang22]

Will we be seeing any new group deals soon? It seems like Ramos has enough stuff to make a starter group with him, and I'm not sure about the Beastmasters yet, but it's looking close. If Rasputina gets enough little guys to fill out her crew and the beastmasters are satisfactory, we could see the online store go from 0/3 to 3/3 for available Archanist groups really quick!

[TheBugKing]

I went ahead and ordered Ramos, Joss, 3 Arachnid Swarms and the 'Borg. $51 after shipping. Looks like a box deal to me!

[Peterdita]

JOSS DA BOSS! Weren't ya'll hating on him last week? I knew you'd come around ;)

[TheBugKing]

Once he stopped competing with the 'Borg he sure did become the sauce. When I had to choose you know who lost! No more hating from me!

Plus his model is actually really nice! :D Happy Buggy Dance!

[Maestro]

give in...you'll like it :D
Allready have.. I'm quite weak you know!

[Caronte]

Wow, that Steamborg is a fantastic proxi for the unavailable Warzone Tekron! :congrats:

[thetang22]

Once he stopped competing with the 'Borg he sure did become the sauce. When I had to choose you know who lost!

That is actually a pretty accurate description of Joss as a henchmen, and the old steamborg as a henchment as well. I would never take Joss in my group if it meant I had to sacrifice taking the steamborg. Now that isn't an issue we can all live happily ever after (once we get balanced out against the other factions, anyway).

[Scorpio]

Wow, that Steamborg is a fantastic proxi for the unavailable Warzone Tekron!

Whoah, blast from the past, nice rememberin'!

And man. The Arcanists didn't hold much allure for me, but both these Beastmasters are pretty fancy models...

[joshuaslater]

Found out I was right about Muller sculpting the Spydey steamborg. I asked on frothers, but then went straight to the source. Wyrd just keeps getting better as the catalog grows. It's really a cool vision as we see the way the factions are growing, and the models are usable for other games as well.

[Art-de-Vivre]

I just love these new releases, I sent my order already !

[Art-de-Vivre]

VERY NICE STUFF!!! Ilove it the mistress ! In when rules to play with these magnificent mini? One can have the luck to make the test beta in France?

ask Moavoamoatu, I believe he's one of the beta testers for Malifaux in France
Cheers !

[elzaeer]

Cheers !

non pas encore mais je voudrais bien ;) !! / Not still but I would want ;) !!

[Genetic]

steamborg look sweet, i wonder how many you can have in game?

[joshuaslater]

Good point. I'd like two of that model, but funds are tight, and if only one can be fielded in game, that's going to affect my purchase.

[TheBugKing]

We are working on multiple game sizes. I am almost 100% certain that two will be useful. If it's any indicator, I will be buying two. (Well 1 more since I have already ordered 1)

Take that for what it's worth.

[Genetic]

hmm ramos and an army of steamborgs, sounds good to me..

[TheBugKing]

Well. Not quite an army. But an army of spidery things certainly!

[Genetic]

i almost for got about the little spider things.. well got 1 already lol thx you ramos.

[A Luna]

yay Wyrd order came in today. Awesome miniatures, a true beauty (the golem and worm)

[Art-de-Vivre]

Yay ! My order came in 2-3 days ago.

Ultra fast shipping from the US to France : only six days !!!
thanks Nathan, both for shipping and quality of the figures !

I love the mire golem (I might call him Ed, Ed Mire...), wish I had ordered 2...
The Razorspine is stunning and just screams for a diorama; my only very slight disappointment is the size of the Steamborg which is a little small for what I had in mind, but that is a minor concern...
The figures are well engineered and should be easy enough to assemble.
Now where to start ?

Cheers !

[elzaeer]

Yes it is very fast!! J had mine before yesterday!!! Thank you still for these very beautiful mini!

[Nathan Caroland]

Thank you for the orders, very much appreciated - it's ya'll that are the ones keeping us afloat and able to keep producing minis. :)

Smaller than you thought ... wow, I thought he was a bigger bastard! Sorry if we disapointed but I do try to get comparison pictures up, hope he wasn't too much of a let down. The Mire Golem is a fun one though I have to admit, I think Saunders did an over the top job on that one myself.

[Maestro]

Smaller than you thought ... wow, I thought he was a bigger bastard! Heh, that sounds vaguely familliar..


But aaaaaanywho, I got the Steamborg just yesterday and I like it.. I like it a lot!! Really looking forward to painting it!

Thanks Nathan!

[Nathan Caroland]

Welcome, looking forward to seeing that one painted up!

[Peterdita]

My Order came the other day and I'm not sure who was more excited, Me or my cat:
http://wyrd-games.net/picture.php?albumid=21&pictureid=80

The minis are great as always.

[Nathan Caroland]

Hah, great picture.

[Thryth]

That's very weird spam.

[goblyn13]

Nothing to see.

This isn't the post you're looking for.

[ScottRadom]

Thank you for the orders, very much appreciated - it's ya'll that are the ones keeping us afloat and able to keep producing minis. :)


For what it's worth I found this place following the talk of Iron Painter on CMON. I was able to find the online store shortly thereafter....

So thanks for hosting that painting thingy. It's pretty cool idea, and it got you some new business and a new fan as well. Thanks again!

I can hear Monty Python's Spam song playing in the distance......

Why do they seem to like this thread so much?

[Darklord]

it must be the high calibre of posters

[Keltheos]

hmm ramos and an army of steamborgs, sounds good to me..

Steambourg IS an army. ;)

Cue Princess Bride Brute Squad references.

Spambots typically post in the first thread in the first category on forums they can get into.

In fact, check out the Warstore's forums. I think he set up a category just for spam to pour into.

[TheBugKing]

And the Vorpalborg went snickersnack and chopped the dude's head off.

I'll call the Borg Squad! I'm on the Borg Squad. You ARE the Borg Squad!
