Unboxing Malifaux - McMournings's 'Body of Evidence' Starter Set

Just put those parts on the pile...I'm sure they'll come in useful...


The 'Body of Evidence' box contains enough parts for seven miniatures...namely McMourning, his Totem the Zombie Chihuahua (2SS), Sebastian (7SS), a Flesh Construct (6SS), a Canine Remains (4SS) and two Nurses (5SS each). It also contains stat cards for each one and six upgrade cards four of which are for McMourning and one for Sebastian and one that can be given to either McMourning or Sebastian.

This makes the Soulsstone value of the box...

McMourning (0), Zombie Chihuahua (2), Sebastian (7), Flesh Construct (6), Canine Remains (4), Nurses (5, 5) Total (29) or (32) with a maximum Soulstone cache and (37) or (38) with maximum 'out of the box' upgrades depending on whether you're playing him as Guild or Resurrectionist.

The box has one sprue set in it which consists of six sub-assy's in it as well as the aforementioned cards...


Lets have a look at each of these in turn...should there be any assembly issues with any of the models then they will be listed in the appropriate section and you can view larger versions of the smaller pictures by clicking on them. Wyrd Miniatures also seem to have stopped putting instructions in things and instead give you a leaflet with a web address on it that leads to a number of links.


I've put them here so you don't need to. Just click on them for larger versions...


McMourning.

The Sprue

Stat Card

Upgrade Cards
One of these is for use with him as a Guild Master, two are Resurrectionists and one is dual faction...yes...dual faction Masters are a bit more complicated, lol.


Assembled
The join between his arm and the tray is a bit small so I'd recommend taking your time to get a good join. I assembled the tray, head and underneath part before attaching it to the arm and this method worked for me.


Sebastian.

The Sprue

Stat Card

Upgrades 
One of these can also be given to McMourning and is labelled as such.

Assembled

Zombie Chihuahua.

The Sprue


Stat Card

Assembled
It's tiny...really, really, tiny...get some tweezers...or a friend with a microscope...or just be careful. It actually looks worse than it is if I'm being honest...


Flesh Construct.

The Sprue

Canine Remains.

Nurses.

The Sprue

Stat Cards


Assembled
The arm joints are a bit small on both Nurses but nothing that should cause you any particular issues.


For those of you who are interested in such things, here are some comparison pictures between the original metal and the new plastic versions.


Thoughts and comments are (as usual) most welcome.

  1. Can't believe im saying this but metal canine remains and zombie Chihuahua are better than the plastic versions

    1. You're not the only person with that opinion.
