Mythic Legions: Reign of the Beasts wave reveal stream onlinehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPA4OAKWGvA<- Bassylia. $45>In the First Age of the realm, armies of nightmarish soldiers marched across Mythoss, set upon the total destruction of all that stood in their path.The Great Mother, Selyne, refused to allow her home to be destroyed, or her children to be slaughtered. Calling upon her powers, she brought forth four mighty warriors to stand against the evil that Helyos had wrought. These warriors would come to be called the Great Beasts, and Selyne created each of them specifically to match the horrors of the evil generals called the Dark Four.One by one these mighty warriors emerged. Taking their places as the leaders of armies dedicated to protecting Mythoss, they would defeat their evil enemies during a period that history would one day call the Reign of the Beasts.This wave will be fully revealed at G-con: Reign of the Beasts on 11/8/24! Tune in live to our YouTube channel starting at 10am EST or follow the reveals on our social channels. The preorder for the Reign of the Beasts wave will begin on 11/8/24 starting at 5pm EST at StoreHorsemen.comQuick links:Wave on sourcehorsemen:https://www.sourcehorsemen.com/mythic-legions/reign-of-the-beastsShop:https://store-horsemen.myshopify.com/
The dedicated swappable bend piece for the tail makes me a bit skeptical of the poseability. I also hope they sell tail add-ons because that tail is too short, just like Vitruvian Hacks'.
>>11226354same royal guard figure
Efreet in ogre scale: J'hennam
Arraya
>>11226369The dragon pet has a bendy body and like 5poa.
>>11226354>>11226357Snake. Do you read me?SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!
Mwindajii, referred to as 3.0 body with double jointed elbows and knees.
>>11226378And butterfly joints!It's great that they have decided to really move forward with the engineering.
>>11226378Butterfly shoulders, too, and I believe both waist and mid-torso ball joints. Compatibility with 1.0 at some points, mainly forearms and lower legs.
Mostly compatible with 1.0 except for elbows and knees. The idea is that forearm and lower leg cuts allow that, too.
Pride of LeandorrNot very excited about this one after we've got more historically accurate Romans by Xesray, but that's cool.Double elbow and knees, too, btw.
>>11226398Face
>>11226398It does feel like they are playing catch up with all the other companies that have been making stuff that 4H has neglected. The Reptilians from Savage Crucible, the furries from Maestro Union, and the Romans from Xesray.
Leodysseus, ogre scale with upgrades (butterfly, mid-torso joint, added neck joints...)>>11226365Now that I recall, this guy is brute scale, I believe, not ogre.
>>11226411
>>11226411bg shot
>>11226413I want him to fuck me
That's all for figure reveals. They supposedly talking about general projects for like 2 hours.Version 2 of Eathyron and Xylona announced, but not shown.
>>11226428No dragon. I'm honestly kind of glad.In fact, I'm glad that this is a small wave, especially with all the Necro stuff due soon that I need to pay for.And I need to preorder Nosferatu Zodd. And those witches by CiYuanJuXiang.And all the recent RPG line reveals by Snail Shell.And the Memory Toys WoW stuff.And SHF announced Lord of the Rings figs too.Plus the Yoto Toys Snakeman skeletons, and this fucker too.Fantasy fans are eating real good right now.
>>11226428Silver Knight Legion Builder 2 will go up for preorder early next year when the Mythic Legions: First 10 Years book also goes up for preorder.
Early impressions:>SneksSadly, I'm ignoring these completely until they announce tail add-ons or make new snakes with longer tails. The figures look nice, but tails are way, way too short for anything but standing upright.>IfritVery cool, but I don't need it. I might change opinion later when I see a local seller's price in my country, but I think I'd rather buy more gnolls instead if anything.>ArrayaProbably getting her. It's a very cool figure generally speaking.>GnollsThe highlight of the wave for me. I want to buy like 3.>RomanI don't need these after Xesray's, especially since those ones double as non-fantasy, historical figures.>LeodysseusVery cool, but 2big4me. I don't personally need a huge ass humanoid lion. I'd be more interested on a brute scale one.
New line of guest characters/collaborations, like Figura Obscura. First one is Glyos-guy.
Plans to redo old figures with updated articulation, soft goods, new accessories, while keeping the original design.I like the idea, since I like the simplicity of original designs of some characters and I fear that they might go full retard redesigning them if they were to make real Version2 of them.
>>11226532First example, Otto.
The Dragon is real.
Dragon
>>11226544
>>11226544Fugg
Those mad bastards.
>>11226549Close to 4 feet length/wingspan when fully extended.
>>11226565Accessories to be sold separately.
>>11226567
Completely forgot there was a reveal today. Really liking the sneks and gnoll.>>11226571Holy shit he's HUGE
>>11226549Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
>>11226589And he's just the first of FIVE of these guys. At least.
>>11226593oh nice, yeah makes sense to get the most out of this mold
>>11226571It's like buying a damn dog
>>11226597They said there might be some part reuse, but the other four won't just be recolors of this guy. >>11226369This figure right here is a "Dragon Cultist"....but for a different Dragon. And the little one she comes with isn't that dragon.
>>11226571I'm not in the market, but I am curious what it's gonna run. It's impressively large.
>>11226571i have no where to put this, unless its like, the centerpiece of the coffee table in the living room, and its not going there.
>>11226615Don't put the Dragon on the table, put the table on the Dragon!
Looking forward to other, hopefully smaller, dragons.
>>11226428Now that I finally have time to sit and think it over:>Leodysseus Impressive but not exactly surprising. I don't know if he's a "must have" but he's pretty cool. >Bassylia I love the colors, I love the design and flair and I love that they're making snake people apparently good guys, which goes against every established convention of snake people in most modern media. She's a strong maybe. >RoyalGuardSurprising, cool, and I love the multiple gear options in case you army built em. If I had infinite money, I probably would rule-of-three em, but as is, it's either one of these guys or Bassylia herself. >EfreetOh he's a must have for me. I was regretting not getting the Djinn, but this guy is far cooler. I wish I could find an appropriately sized Dark Schneider to go step on his head. >ArrayaCool concept, love the pet dragon, but easy pass for me. >MwindajiiI literally just got a three pack of the AWOK Hyenas...and now I'm regretting that decision. I'd much rather have three of this guy as he's just amazing. Will have to settle for one, but I hope his kin get fleshed out over time. >Pride SoldierIt's cool to see these guys, but if I can't get three I won't get any. Honestly, my favorite part about him is the emblem on the shield, but otherwise I'll go with the Xesray set as these guys just don't feel as "fantasy" to me as the rest of the Legions. >>11226449Getting at least two, unless it comes with that original Jousting helmet....as then I'll need a third. Not a fan of the shield though. >>11226520I always liked some of Glyos's designs, but was never a fan of the size/articulation scheme. Assuming this guy fully ditches some of those Legions bits and gets a whole new mold, I might bite on him. But I'm more curious as to what other brands they'll crossover with. >>11226536I am so glad I passed on his original figure. the smaller head looks WAY better and I love the new weapons.
>>11226567>>11226571>>11226549Waiting for traditional red one. I'm not gonna have double dip and buy two of these
>>11226532>>11226536>updated articulation>singe jointed elbows and knees??
>>11226520Gonna get this just for that mega buster like arm cannon.
>>11226549Holy fucking shit I need it.
Hnnnng
Gnoll and dragon, mmmmmm.
>>11226716It's the newish Valiant Knight buck. It has single joints, but they go much over 90º.The weird thing is that the Red Sons wave is also going to introduce some of these single joints with greater range like Attlus2's bare body and limbs... which are kinda getting obsoleted by the Roman guy's preorder before even being released for the first time, looks like?
I'm reminded of that guy from Eternal Darkness.
>>11226571Guessing 6 quintillion dollars.
>>11226810>>11226814I kinda hate it when they make troop builders full priced figures as it pretty much means we'll never see a Legion Builder variant of these guys. The Legionnaire dude especially could've used a Legion Builder variant. At least with the Gnole they decided to make this one a named character, implying there may be hope for a more "generic" troop builder version one day. I also hate that most of the wave is larger "Deluxe" priced figures. It's cool when a wave has one or two, but this one is almost all deluxes. I'll be getting at least three of these guys, maybe four budget allowing. But even that might be stretching things depending how things go before the end of the pre-order. That dragon however will certainly not be in the budget. The cost of it alone will be absurd, so once you factor in shipping, it's gonna be a major purchase. I'm glad they made it and I really do hope it's super successful, but ain't no way I'll be getting my hands on one.
>>11226344>>11226351>>11226354>>11226357Are these joints or wired?
>>11226869Looks like the first two or three segments going into the torso are joints, while the rest is a fixed piece - all of the shots show the tails are stuck in a single pose, so they likely aren't poseable for the sake of allowing the figure to stand.
>>11226877That makes sense. Though a little disappointing.
>>11226571>>11226567>>11226565>mama when is grandpa gonna visit us again>soon son
>>11226869>>11226877>>11226882I think they're jointed above the bend, bendy past that. The bend itself is a swappable part, at least on Bassylia, as they specifically mentioned she had a straightened part so you could pose her flying. The guards seem to have the same part in their accessory pics, but they didn't specifically say they came with that part. But considering their price point, I see no reason they wouldn't have that piece. Also the little dragon that comes with the cultist is a bendy body with jointed limbs and head.
Completely not Mythic Legions related but since I figure this will also be the generic Fantasy Figure thread as well, to the dude looking to grab them Capsule Goblins, it seems there's some sets up on ebay right now with free shipping offers. They're about $50 a pop, but that's way better then the almost $100 with shipping they were going for on Hobbydigi (which are sold out now anyway). I bit the bullet so if you wanna wait I guess I'll be he guinea pig to see how long the shipping actually takes. But I don't know how long they'll sit on ebay at that price. ....sort of related, but I also grabbed a Playmobil dragon ship thing so these little guys will be a perfect crew to sail my Dark Elf villains around. Or at least they will be once I figure out how to give them some actual clothes.
>>11226549imagine the size of the fucking box
>>11226923What dragons are those?
>>11226923Cute! What dragons are those?!
>>11227017>>11227023NTA but I think the bigger dragon is a BJD.
>>11227070I looked it up and that's Ball Jointed Doll?
>>11227017>>11227023>>11227070>>11227074NTA either, but I remember him mentioning the bigger ones being a 3d printed kit from Etsy. Wasn't too unreasonably priced either, but it's also not an oversized monstrosity. It does look really nice though and I do plan to get one myself eventually, as it'd be perfect for my growing 3"ish fantasy figure collection. Just not any time soon.
>Ifritnot my thing, but he looks really cool, definetly will enjoy seeing it in peoples pictures.>Cultistcool cultist>>11226373kinda just want this little guy if im honnest hahaha>>11226378My favorite of this wave, i love Gnolls and im glad to see them do more beast characters. he looks really cool, is he normal height or a bigger thing?>Gnoll againupgraded articulation sure looks nice>Roman dudei question why this isnt like an army build figure, hes unnamed too, kind of an odd choice?>Big Lionhes big and really impressive, really cool id concider this one>Knightoh thanks, i forgot what all the options were but ill see when it goes up.>>11226565thats gigantic holyshit, Like 4feet and 6feet with the fire, thats crazy. thatthings the size of a dog and probably not far off in weight.Really cool they made one, i was anticipating theyd make a more mount-sized dragon if they ever did, not a pet thats gonna claim a whole room by itself.Really happy they made it but definetly not in my budget, especially not if its not coming to their retailers, im not touching international shipping on that beast hahaha.>>11226763face looks beautifull>>11226791Yeah this guys definetly my favorite of the new wave, loving the details
>>11226936Most collectors will be living out of it after trying to afford this dragon.Seriously, they better figure out a fucking payment plan setup, there's now way people can just pay up front for this kind of thing.
>>11226793This might be one of their most impressive sculpts yet
>>11226759>>11226571What the FUCKWHAT WILL THIS EVEN COST?And how will people display it? It's the size of small dog, plus a wingspan that will put your eye out if you approach if from the wrong angle
Surprise Legion Con exclusive...that will hopefully go online too cause FUCK ME I want it.
>>11227519
>>11226520interesting, not sure I'll jump in on the Glyos dude, but this line could end up with some fun figures. Maybe with some parts from Wukong and the new Gnoll we could see a Pale from Animal Warriors of the Kingdom. I think they've been guests at Legionscon too.
>>11227519>>11227521want!Love how the scales are painted
>>11227519>>11227521......those bastards lol. Guess I'm getting both Snakes from this wave now, because I want this guy too now.
>>11227519>>11227521>Surprise Legion Con exclusiveI've said it before in the MOTU thread:The Snake Train has no brakes!>that will hopefully go online tooThe last two Legions Cons had a two pack and a single figure, and it totally slipped my mind that only the two pack was announced for this year. So I'm guessing the non-con version of this guy will go up at the same time as the other two.With all the other con exclusives, the regular versions usually lose a head. I hope they don't for the snake. I need both heads.
>>11227471Absolutely more than $400, I'm budgeting somewhere around $700 including the accessory pack and shipping and will be deeply surprised if it runs much more than that point. Creative Beast put their substantially smaller and less winged dragon out for around $220 before shipping, and Kitzconcept managed a 1/18 Rathalos for $300 at BBTS prices.>>11226428Definitely getting the cultist lady, probably the gnoll, maybe Leodysseus and Bassylia. The Legionnaire's proportions feel off and he's too expensive to be buying for parts. The royal guard is cool but I'm not super into it.I just don't like any of the djinn head designs. The horn placements and proportions feel like bad 3d practice sculpts that didn't get enough anatomy revision. I wish they had gone for something more like the Elden Ring Omens if they were just slapping magic horns wherever without thought of the underlying anatomy.I love the dragon, the only reason I can think of not to get it is if they do an undead or metallic dragon later.>>11226532Glad to hear about this, hopefully this frees up enough All Stars spaces for B'alam to finally get a reissue or he actually gets one of these with some of the newer weapons.
>>11227017>>11227023The big one is 3d printed. The 3d print file is herehttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2884250I got mine from an etsy seller called JollyBuild and painted the yellow underbelly.The smol one is a Toy Spirits gashapon
>>11227519>>11227523>>11227527>>11227540Yep. He gets a regular release early next year.
>>11226571I love it but god damn is it huge
>>11227548I'm getting two at least. For sexings.
>>11227545>B'alamplease, ive been wanting him for awhile but wa slate on the Mythic hypetrain and quitefrankly when i discovered them importing them was very expensive.hoping he gets another go. I really like his natural colours
>>11226544>>11226549>>11226567>>11226571Looks amazing, but i really can't justify dropping $600+ on this
The lines for the merch shop was way too long so I didn't bother waiting to get the snake this time. But the armor experience was easy and I finally have a basic rogue character.
>>11226571>yeah and that room, that's my dragons room
I'm trying to make a Cosmic Legion undead/zombie crew and wanted everyone's opinion here on what figures and parts to put together. I'm aware a of a undead themed line that will drop soon that have things like Necronominus Undead Builder and the hands/heads packs, but what other creatures of the night could I mash with Space suits and Aliens to get a real good nerco spacer vibe?
>>11227931>basic rogue character.I'm not savvy enough with this to know what makes him "basic" he looks really good with that mix
>>11227952Not for this sadly as I am being autistic and wanting to mash with 4H's Legions stuff. That said thanks for sharing, Traitor Guard does look metal as fuck.
>>11227931will those colorful knights be available somewhere else?
>>11227965Pretty sure they said these would be offered early next year too
Remember when this line started and all of those butthurt 1/18 fags cried and said we would never get things like horses, ogres, and dragons.
>>11227931I'm legit jealous of people who got to make their own figures. I'd love to be able to mix and match bits to get my own unique figures. The retail versions they plan on putting out will just be solid color versions of basic knights, and that doesn't have the same appeal as being able to actually mix and match stuff to your own preferences. That rogue looks fantastic btw, though he could use a cloak of some kind. Check Maxbird's webshop if you don't mind spending a bit as he makes some quality capes. >>11227950I would look into trying to grab a version of the alien skull they put out with the initial launch of Cosmic. They made it in a few different colors and I'm sure one of em is bone colored. It would turn a basic human skeleton into a cool alien skeleton. Some of the older skeletons were brightly colored as well, so grabbing some of them would be cool. Scaphoid specifically would work as a fantastic irradiated skeleton if you mixed him with space suit parts, and Keltus could easily be a frozen one in the same vein. Gorthok could be used as a diseased corpse type alien, and I'm pretty sure the wings use the same size joint as the arms, so you might be able to swap out some arms for bone wings or something. But yea, your best bet is the stuff from the Necro/All Star6 waves. Mainly the undead builder, The Turpiculi and the Skeleton heads alone should be enough to build a whole horde of undead space abominations.
>>11226571Is the last figure on the right 1:18?
>>11226571My Galactus will have a suitable mount now.
>>11228179No, that's the Mythic Legions Gobbo. If I remember right, it's about 4.5" tall.
>>11227990the amount of butthurt this series has caused over the years have been great.
>>11226700Yeah since they haved named him Beyithirr the Green, you just know there will be Red, Blue, Black, White dragons as well.
>>11226351I QUIT MOTU BECAUSE OF SNAKES AHHH
>>11226385Wow it only took a decade too
>>11226411Cloth goods look so fucking cheap and ruin these figures
>>11228349Wrong
>>11228341They've already confirmed there's still four more great Dragons coming, and we know at least one will be an asian style dragon. But yes it's clear they plan to do a variety of dragons going forward.>>11228349Eh, it works better on some then others. When it's just skirts it's great, doesn't hind legs and adds a lot of dynamism to the figure. Vorgus 2's cape is also pretty impressive, though wonky in how it attaches. Duban and the Horsemen's capes are also super nice and adds some dramatic appeal to their looks, especially when riding mounts. But the cloaks from the Poxxus wave, they were kinda lackluster. They bunched up at the neck and didn't lay flat naturally, and their hoods were awkward and hard to get looking right.We'll see how the new tabards fare in a month or two, but I'm certain it'll make the older sculpted tabard bodies look worse in comparison once they all get together.
>>11228349Really? even >>11228419? I think they are nice sneks
Tempted by that dragon. If its $700 that's too much for me. If they can keep it $500ish i could do it. It's making me skip out on Beasts though until they announce the dragons price. I like the dragon enough though that i am making a separate savings account for the next one.
>>11228531Yeah, $500 feels like the limit on this... And they HAVE to have payment plans ready for this, cause people are gonna hurt.
POV: your wallet getting roasted
Speaking of sneks, I picked up a 3d printed basilisk toy to join my monster roster. He's pretty cool, although being a chain joint means he's completely floppy and need a stand for posing.
>>11228741Spill the beans on that etsy Dragon, what was it you did to strengthen the joints etc?
>>11227990Rent free bitch, lmao.6inggers getting they're pussy wets cause they've got 5 or so in-scale playsets like this admittedly cool mufugga, but they all cost a fortune. Meanwhile you can literally get dozens and dozens of cheaper and cooler playsets and vehicles for GOD'S CHOSEN SCALE that is blessed 1:18.Keep seething and dial8ing.
>>11228756I run a 3mm aluminum wire from the neck to the tail, so the whole body is solid. The wings need a couple coat of UV cured resin, but in retrospect would've been cheaper to use superglue. The limbs I haven't done any strenghtening, when he was new they are pretty tight, but now some are getting a bit loose because the PLA wear down. I'll probably do some UV resin again. The problem with superglue on PLA is that it creates frost.
Knight in shining armor is here to slay the snake monstar
>>11228531w-what next one?
>>11228741>>11228772>>11228767Cheers mane, I've ordered a green one.
>>11228764As someone who collects all scale figures, I'm glad the Legions went 1:12. Fantasy figures work so much better at a larger size and there are far more lines they can cross over with. At 1:18, it's just the BFS stuff and maybe some Joytoy things. I've actually been on a big 3" fantasy figure kick and it's even harder to find stuff at that size. At best I have Playmobil and Eldrador stuff, not counting the Gashapon figures that started this little sidequest of mine. Also, 1:12 figures just look better on their own, 1:18 stuff needs things like vehicles and playsets and dioramas to be cool. But 1:12 figures can just look impressive on a shelf with nothing else supporting them display wise. I'm currently setting up a display for the Four Horsemen right now, and all I need is some tiered risers and a black shirt to cover em, and the figures themselves do the rest. But if they were a smaller scale, they'd never be nearly as impressive or command as much attention as a display. >>11228775They said that there will be at least five Great Dragons coming out so there's four more planned in the pipeline, though maybe not all the same size/scale as this one. Depending on how well this figure does, the last two or three may end up smaller. They also won't be straight repaints either, as they want a variety of Dragons similar to how the main four villains and the main four heroic beasts are all very different from each other. During the Q&A someone asked why the dragon cultist lady had an asian inspired dragon instead of a more european styled one similar to the big green guy and the 4H pretty much said that she's not a cultist for *this* specific dragon. It's pretty much hinting that they plan to do an asian dragon at this larger scale, and I wouldn't be surprised if things were already being designed for it. So stuff like an undead dragon or a sea serpent styled dragon are very much possible.
>>11228764>those glorious tearsStill SEETHING after all these years. Thanks for the laughs.
>>11229158They were never even going to be true 1:18th figures anyway, they would've been closer to 5" tall figures if they kept the proportions they have now.
>>11228343I don't know if you're joking but I loathe the fucking MOTU snake stuff so much. Why is it always snakes. Why.
>>11229166>Why is it always snakes. Who do you think you are, Indiana Jones?Anyway, let's give you a brief mythology lesson.>Jormungandr>Apep>Apophis>Typhon>Lamia>Medusa (and depending on the depiction, Stheno and Euryale)>The Nagaraja Shesha, Takshaka and Vasuki, and the Nagas>Glycon>Nirah>Rainbow Serpent>Serpent in the Garden of Eden>Leviathan>Orochi>Kukulkan>QuetzalcoatlAnd that's a short list.Snakes represent a primordial fear. They have basically been human's arch nemesis for eons due to their capacity to kill us. They are also venerated due to their ability to shed their skin and seemingly regenerate, which is why they are sometimes depicted as a symbol for rebirth, such as with the Ouroboros.If real world examples of the significance of snakes in mythology aren't good enough, read some Conan books. Watch the original Conan the Barbarian. Play some D&D and slaughter some Yuan Ti. Read the first issue of Berserk.Collecting fantasy shit and complaining about snakes is like collecting Star Wars and complaining about Stormtroopers.
Test print of the Dragon.
>>11229296The ratchet joints really give me hope this thing will be able to hold itself in place. But even still, he's gonna be a bitch to move around, especially with the big wings attached.
>>11227950You've already mentioned the Undead Builder in the Necro wave and the heads pack from the All Star 6 wave, and it looks like you've got the Frankenstein Hagnon head.So, from the Necro wave:Belualyth comes with two different heads, and is a 2.0 sized head so she will fit on the black Cosmic Legion Builder, but her hair will likely get in the way from fitting properly unless you customise it a bit.Maxillius comes with a normal skull and the eyeless skull.Turpiculli has two different monstrous skulls.If you want a skeleton in a spacesuit wearing a chainmail hood, Sir Elijah comes with a skull face plate.All Stars 6 has the Skeleton Raider, Thorasis, and Skalli the dwarf skeleton, but they all have medieval helmets on, so they might look anachronistic. Clavian the red skeleton is also getting reissued in that wave.Graveyard Skeleton 4 pack has skull masks so your skeletons can disguise themselves as skeletons.As for other creatures of the night, there have been a few vampires, though some will be harder to find now. The Illythia wave had Baron Volligar and Varrg. Vallak has a hood molded to his head, and Illythia has long hair, so she might have the same issue as Belualyth. There was also Carpathias from much earlier in the line, and Lord Dragul had the same head painted slightly different. The Vampire Knight (2.0 buck) from the second Kickstarter. And there was a head pack with a vampire head in the All Star 5 wave, and that will be much easier to get than any of the other vamp heads I mentioned.Finally, Poxxus has a pretty cool undead head with a long beard, and it looks like the beard will clear the front of the chest of the TUSCC spacesuit body.And Demistros has a cool bony demon head too. And Red Death.And the other anon that replied to you had good suggestions too. The Scaphoid dayglow yellow and green skull will look awesome as an irradiated phantom spaceman. He won't be too hard to find since he was reissued not too long ago.
>>11229651Even if figures like Poxxus and Belualyth's heads don't work perfectly, their arms and hands should help to give that rotting zombie feel to things. Though I still to this day feel that Belualyth should've had bone limbs instead of the asymmetrical bare/armored arms she went with. She's far too similar to that Elf fairy princess and far less interesting with actual meaty limbs. It's a shame imo as that gorgeous headsculpt is wasted on a rather boring body build.
>>11227547Thanks!
>>11229296Have they said exactly how long it is fully stretched out?
>>11228055>>11229651>>11229773Thanks for all the input, helps knowing what to search for and I appreciate noting things like beards,arms, hands, etc as I am wanting to do more mixing up of these guys than just heads. Likely going to be a bit before I can get going with this just due to how limited and costly some of the figures get but these notes it'll help get ideas on what I actually want to build.
>>11229944glad to help, space zombie mutants is a cool idea and I'd love to see more. One more figure I'd like to throw out there is Okeaetos, He's a 2.0 thinner bodied build, but he's a blue skeleton vampire thing with six arms. Sadly the blue don't match up with the zombie chick, but it's still nice getting extra limbs to make use of!He's from a more recent wave and didn't seem super popular, so he shouldn't be hard to grab.
>>11229164To be fair, 4H's idea of 1:18 is actually 3.75", so they might have scaled with actual 1:18 lines. Their Outer Space Men were small.4H fucking up when sizing them up for 1:12 scale is why I never bought any of the human characters for Mythic Legion.WAy too big for 1:12. Even their skeletons are gigantic.
>>11230186They never sized them up, the original sculpts were always larger as they were done back in the old days of actual hand sculpting where you make the original designs at a larger size to be easier to work with. They just didn't size them down fully, and with the heads that was extremely noticeable. The original Otho head was huge, and a lot of the human heads just looked awkward. It's gotten way better over time, but I agree these guys really don't fit in scale wise with most traditional "1:12" stuff. They're still bulked to hell and back so they just dwarf almost anything that stands next to em, even if they're the same height. Helmet heads and monster folk fare kind of better, but even then, those noggins are massive.
>>11229773I mostly listed issues like long hair so that anon didn't spend $50+ on a figure only to discover that it didn't quite fit. Beards should be fine. I would check with Poxxus and a TU5CC space suit , but I've got everything in storage right now to rearrange shit in the house. And I agree on Belualyth. Giving her a skeleton arm would have made her so much more unique.>>11229944Glad to help. If you want a bit more of a visual guide, 4H have checklists so you can see what the figures we mentioned look like, and maybe find ones we missed.Alphabetical:https://sourcehorsemen.com/mythic-legions/checklistBy wave:https://sourcehorsemen.com/mythic-legions/mythic-wavesOf course, the further back you go, the harder stuff is to find/more expensive it potentially is.>>11230057Oh yeah, I forgot to include him on my list. His heads are repaints of the Vamp Knight from the second Kickstarter. Definitely worth grabbing just for the heads and 2.0 skeleton arms. I've seen him for real cheap on Amazon.
>>11230208Yeah, i know how two ups work (in fact, i saw the prototypes at sdcc before the kickstarter began), but the fact is, they were designed to be for 3.75" and were arbitrary when they went for the larger sized figures, hence doing the not-quite 1/10 scale instead of 1/12.And the wonky heads is just from the overuse of samefag bodies. Not everything is one size fits all, so they looked mishmashed from the ill fitting bodies.Basically, it was shit planning because of their sudden change in plans.
>>11226428>Version 2 of Eathyron and Xylona announced, but not shownI was just coming here to say that I found it weird we didn't see these. Glad to know they're in the pipeline.
Anyone know of a good 1:12 Victor Frankenstein to go with the recent Creature?
>>11226354>>11226351>>11226357>>11226798>>11226814Lame I want good Mesoamerican toys badly, it could even be fantastical with made up details or lizard people, just have somebody that actually understands the iconography and motifs design shit please. The Macuahuitl is fine I guess, and the plumes on the warrior's helmet also isn't half bad, it actually has stuff arranged in fixed arrays, but everything else is very uninspired and not really based on anything from Mesoamerica
>>11229296Jesus, he's bigger than my 3-month-old son. He looks awesome but there is no way I can justify the £300+ he's gonna cost.
>>11234228What about that is lame? It's one of the most exciting lines in a while.
>>11235017It is multiple times bigger than my chihuahua
>>11235100He thinks they are lame because he wants Mesoamerican action figures, and not just figures inspired Mesoamerican designs. Kind of like if I wanted historically accurate Crusaders and Templars I would be disappointed, but I'm not retarded so I wouldn't expect a line with negro angels and vampire ogres to be historically accurate.
>>11233371I have been looking now for a good two days and I have to say it's rather amazing how this isn't a thing. Even just generic looking mad doctors in this scale are not common
>>11226344>make action figure based on IRL culture>all of them are humanoid snake monstersDumb yankee jersey gringos
>>11235864I hope 4H make Tlaloc next so we can see the peak of wetback culture. I hope it includes a few child sized skulls as accessories.
>>11233371Can't you just put a Grand Moff Tarkin head on any suited body, e.g., Monster Force Dracula? Book accurate Dr. Frankenstein is not a doctor in traditional sense, more like English 19th century aristocrat

>>11236697Just in time for the dragon
Was looking through new releases on amazon, and found these guyshttps://www.amazon.com/Icon-Heroes-Zoo-Jitsu-6-Inch/dp/B0DJG3X3NT?>Expertly designed and sculpted by Four Horsemen Studios
>>11239459Yea, they still do a lot of contracting work, and a lot of indy toy people lend each other assistance for things like new toylines. Cool concept, not really my thing.
>>11226378This guy is probably the only one I am going to get out of this wave. Gnolls are a classic.>>11226520Meh. The Glyosynth from a while back did the same thing but cooler.>>11226536Interesting way to get around exclusivityfags who would whine about a proper re-release.>>11226571Fucking Jesus. I mean it is very cool but I don't have the space or money for this thing.
>>11239459Yeah, I remember they had a Kickstarter a few months back? Didn't make it I thought, but, I mean I'm glad to see they're still pushing these. I think they look neat, just not quiiiiite scratching the itch for me to pick them up. I wish 'em well though.
How does this even happen?
>>11240598China doesn't listen
>>11240598Small family business, please understand. The dragon will surely not have any problems.
>>11240753Okay well it uploaded sideways lmao

>>11240761>>11240765>>11240770Geez, how many of those Goblin sets did you get? Not to nitpick but I think their arms are on the wrong side, the shoulder peg piece goes in the front with the bicep piece being the back of the shoulder assembly. I know it feels counterintuitive to put the seam on the front of the arm, but the shoulder is actually sculpted that way and they look like they were meant to sit kind of askew as that's when they fully line up right. Cute little figures, they make great grunts for my Dark Elf raider team. Their weapons were kinda lame though, the club looks more like a chicken leg and the axe is wobbly and soft, but that's a minor issue as I have plenty of other options for em. They can actually hold Playmobil stuff really well. I want one more of the goblins just to get a "rule of three" army builder set up going. But I don't think I've ever seen em for individual sale, only as the four pack and I really don't need that many more of these guys. Cool set up though, I love the tavern furniture, and the pics came out super clean. I barely know how to even use my camera so everything I shoot looks washed out and janky.
>>11241254That makes sense about the arms. I wasn't sure. I initially built them the way you're talking about but then I realized that the shoulder peg wasn't lining up properly with the arm? I ended up getting 120 or 140 of them.I'm going to end up selling some online. I haven't received the big batch yet. I know they come with a fully black goblin.
>>11240598Their quality control likely didn’t involve opening a fucking box and checking the figure.
>>11241286>I ended up getting 120 or 140 of them.....I honestly wasn't expecting that lol. Any idea of how much you wanna sell em for? I'm in the market for more of the little green buggers if the price isn't too bad.
>>11241824I dunno, I'll probably do similar to whatever the ebay market is. There should be plenty of people selling around the same time because that's when the big lot arrives (december).
