One man's junk is another's treasure and all that
Recently I got a job lot of second hand Malifaux minis and thought I'd run through the contents here.
First up, three quarters of the first Hoffman starter; Charles himself, a Watcher and a Hunter. As I don't have a Mechanical Attendant I don't see these getting much use as a crew themselves, but I'll prep and paint them someday for the fun of it!
Next a mostly whole selection of chaps made using the male character kit for Through the Breach (I believe). The duster/hat guy could potentially proxy as something Guild (with a fix as he is missing a sword), but the Neverborn dude with a gatling gun is utter madness!
I also got Sonnia Criid (alternate version) - thanks to Wargaming Threads for help in identifying!
Next is the metal Samael Hopkins (picture not great as he is primed and has a basecoat on some leather).
Here we have the first plastic version of The Scribe, Lucius' totem.
Next is an on-sprue version of the Restless Spirit in red - have to admit I never saw much point in the coloured plastic stuff as it'll end up painted anyway!
Here's a part painted Ama No Zako:
Next up was a pair of Crooligans (the best two IMO):
The box also included McCabe (foot and mounted) and the three Ruffians from his starter box (no Sidir or Luna but I do already have this box so it's no great shakes!)
Next was Somer and Lenny from the previous starter - these have weirdly oversized scenic elements which have claimed a foot each from the gremlins... if I can salvage the feet I might use these as alternate options for my other Somer and Lenny.
Here's McTavish and his big boy gator:
And a mostly complete Rail/Metal Golem (which to be honest I might just turn into something for Dracula's America):
A pretty much painted Killjoy was also in the box:
As well as a selection of minis from the Plague keyword. Some of these I might press into service for Dracula's America.
Next is the previous Lady Justice starter - some on sprue, with the Death Marshals salvageable:
Then there was a Sanctioned Spellcaster that will fit in with my Witch Hunters, an Austringer and a Pathfinder:
Next was a selection of Guard keyword minis.
And the Dashel from the previous Lucius box - as I have no Dispatcher I might use this to take him as a second master, probably in his Dashel2 form.
Then there was Johan - I've got both male and female versions now!
Next up is a metal Lord Chompy Bits - this will definitely get used in Dracula's America:
Then there was a selection of Obliteration keyword minis, which most notably included Karina, so I could feasibly get say Tara2 and make use of these all together:
Next was some Freikorps, including notably Hannah Lovelace, which I think is an awesome model so I'm really happy to have it!
Almost finally was the highlight of the box - the now OOP Avatar of Amalgamation (counts as Arcane Emissary):
Finally there was this mini that I am yet to identify from either the Malifaux range or otherwise - all I know is it is metal!
If you recognise her, please let me know!
In all, whilst it was a very random selection, there's lot of usable bits and pieces in there - the Avatar, Hannah, Lady Justice and Obliteration stuff in particular stands out and definitely made it represent good value for me.
