But this one is the real deal, with new info and all! Were you able to get the figures you wanted from the ISS? Did you p/o Elric and cut your hands on his very pointy armor trying to make him look cool? Did you invest large amounts of cash into emo skeleton knights only to be disappointed? Share your thoughts and share your pics, as this is the one and only Mythic Fantasy thread!And remember, Don't Feed the Troll.Previous Thread: >>11754708
>>11776845Legionscon Merlin and Arthur. Arthur's con exclusive version will come with the extra helmeted head, red sword and scabbard, belt and shield to make Sir Bedivere while Merlin's Con exclusive parts will be the pieces needed to make his Demon form. These two are apparently the start of a line that will be "exclusive" to Legionscon featuring figures from Arthurian Legend, so expect even more exclusives for that show to pop up over the next few months.
>>11776773Chances are they only have the resin prototypes on hand so they won't be able to pose at all. Especially if they're the paint masters because the last thing they wanna do before production is mess up the paint on the figures. They have an articulation breakdown on the Kickstarter and it looks pretty standard to modern figures, though it looks like they are sticking with single jointed knees and elbows. That's not a bad thing if you sculpt for it to get a good range, but from the 3d model promos, they seem to at best get 90 degrees. What really irks me about these figures though is how each of the three captains all come with these giant freaking long swords. Because when I think Pirate, I think Zweihanders and Claymores. Even the cutlass the Human captain comes with is this stupid massive weapon that's really not fitting to be used on a pirate ship. Though the army builder's sword seems to be more manageable. Which let me say, I'm glad they HAVE army builders. I mean, you're kinda limited to only getting two per builder due to lack of heads...unless you want all your humans and fishmen looking the same. But you could easily build an entire crew of Skeletons, which would actually be cool. And with the right combination of extra captains and captain kits, you could probably build a pretty decently diverse set up. But either way, it's just nice to see they have army builders....because too many lines seem to forget those are thing people want. But now I REALLY need to get me a good 1:12 pirate ship....possibly two depending on how hard I go with these guys. It would make for a fun display to have a crew of these dudes going up against the 4H's pirate offerings.
You knoe who needs a Mythic Legions…
>>11776845>Elric will be up on the SC shop in June in *very* limited numbers along with Brynyar Vael and Naraka the UndyingFUCK, I assume there's no date for that right? Which means I'll have to be alert.
>>11776845What’s up with the OP pic?
>>11776864Infinite Legions Monty Python and the Holy Grail? Fund it.>>11776871Not yet, but they'll specify the details when we get closer. They won't just stealth drop it and say "good luck", but I doubt they'll stagger the sale to make it easier for internationals to grab him. >>11776883OP here, I generally try to pick OC pics for the new threads. This pic was posted by an anon from the last thread, features one of the newest highly anticipated fantasy figures that just got released, and shows off the book series he's from for those not familiar with the character. tl;dr - I like the pic so I made it OP.
>>11776889..................but apparently I save the thumbnail cause I'm a moron. Here is the original.Brb, making third Mythic Legions General.
>>11776845never bought a savage crucible figure, but just got elric in, surprised how good he is, i was kind of expecting it to be borderline trash like boss fight studios or have outdated articulation like a mythic legions, pleasantly surprised
>>11776890Doesn't matter anon, as long as we can see the cool pic in the thread.>>11776845The XesRay Cassia is great. Watch out though, if you're removing her breast plate the latches on the side are extremely fiddly to get back on and I had to use her sword to push them each around.
>>11776864>>11776889Infinite Legions Lancelot and Concorde, with each figure coming with a part for a BaF horse.
>>11776963Yea, Bossfight stuff feels like older marvel legends, but SC really went out of their way to innovate some new articulation tech. I'm kind of meh on it, since it can look super wonky at times, but it works well enough and they do get some pretty good range of motion. >>11777033Didn't even realize they made a purple soldier to go with her. Also, that Alf with the backpack is awesome, I assume it was some sort of exclusive?>>11777114I'd be a completionist for that line.
>>11776845>Ashen Oath Kickstarter failed to meet goalHonestly, I'm not surprised. A few mistakes were made for this. His main exposure is via the Mythic Legions fanbase, and he launched his Kickstarter during the Legions RPG Kickstarter when most of his customer base will be throwing money at 4H. But the biggest issue was that every figure felt the same. There was no incentive to get multiples since they all kind of blur together. >Tide-Realm Corsairs Kickstarter launched. Already at 100k and expected to meet it’s goalThese guys have almost done it right, amd they will likely hit their goal. Each faction has a distinct look, and the way to get 4 different army builders from one figure with two heads and a tricorn is well thought out, but reusing the main character heads in the army builders feels a bit lazy. It is really obvious on the Tideborne crew figure, so hopefully one of the secret reveals is a head pack.I'm not sure if I will go all out on these, but if I am only going to get one figure, it's going to be Gravemoor the Storm-Hexed. I never realised I needed Pirate Captain Skeletor until now.
>>11777144>Also, that Alf with the backpack is awesome, I assume it was some sort of exclusive?NtA, but yeah. SDCC 2023.>>11777033I want to try and get that gladiator's manica to fit on the HopDo goblin in the worst way.
>>11777193Yea, the Ashen Oath guys just had the same figure three times and didn't really offer incentive to buy more then one or two. The unpainted figures were so close to being army builders that if they just had a bone colored head with the basic colored armor they probably would've made all the difference. With the Pirate KS though, yea, each Captain feels unique and essentially using the same mold for six different figures, with half of em being army builders is pretty genius. I'm kind of waffling between getting a couple to add to my Legions Pirates, or getting a full crew and making them rivals. I'll have to see stretch goals to make that decision though. But if last year was all about Conan and Barbarians for me, this year seems to be shaping up to be one of Pirates. First I got some Link Travelers Pirate figures with a Playmobil ship for em, I also got a couple of model kit robot pirates with a build-a-boat display. I grabbed a bunch of the Mythic Legions pirates and now I gotta worry about these guys. Though getting a 1:12 scale ship will be WAY more difficult then getting one for 3" figures. >>11777211>NtA, but yeah. SDCC 2023.Neat! Love me some Alf merch. Also. what's a HopDo goblin? And is that armor even removable? I know the blue gladiator chick had her armor molded to her arm.
>>11777211Yeah that was the limited edition Praetorian Guard, comes with both helmet types. I snapped up one of the last ones on Aliexpress a while ago. Happy with that little crew.
>>11777223>Also. what's a HopDo goblin? And is that armor even removable? I know the blue gladiator chick had her armor molded to her arm.Yeah, practically everything comes off the gladiators.
>>11777226Whoops this was for >>11777144
>>11777235Ah, drunkard rape goblin dude, yea he could use more gear. Something tells me the Xesray arms are a bit thicker then his green noodles though, but I'm sure it could be jury rigged to fit.
>>11776889A correction, that's not the book series Elric is from but a vinyl copy of the album "Warrior on the Edge of Time" by the psych rock band Hawkwind. The author of the Elric series, Michael Moorcock, wrote most of the lyrics on that album and based them around the concept of The Eternal Champion, which Elric is one of in Moorecock's multiverse. I wonder who they'll chose for the other two Moorecock characters that they're gonna make figures of.
>>11777247Yeah, that's what I'm thinking, but like you said, I think I could work something out.
>>11777252Ah, my newfag is showing, I very much stand corrected. I'll admit, I only have a passing knowledge of Elric and his stories as I've only read some comics and didn't even read all of em. I didn't know about the concept album written by his author, but now I will certainly hunt it down.
