Unboxing Malifaux - Convict Gunslingers

Prison security in Malifaux is apparently in need of serious upgrading...

'Small Box' Cover.


The Convict Gunslinger box contains enough parts for two miniatures...namely the Convict Gunslingers. It also contains stat cards for them though there are no upgrade cards.

Here are the official assembly instructions should you have trouble locating them.

Convict Gunslingers - General
The chains are far sturdier than I was expecting but I'd still make sure that I didn't press on them when pushing other parts into place if I was you.

Convict Gunslinger 1 - Assembled
Though there are several small parts (including a two part head, separate foot and a small extra piece at the waist) but none of these are difficult to put in place. Make sure you align the small cloth piece on his right side before gluing to ensure you get the correct location as it'll fit in at a number of different angles.



Convict Gunslinger 2 - Assembled
Other than the tiny pony-tail there's nothing problematic with this model and even that part goes into place quite easily. The slight gap where the right arm attaches to the body is due to slippage while assembling rather than being a bad joint...just so you know... 

This model is also ideal should you ever need to represent Danny Trejo in any of your games, lol.



Here's a group picture.

Here's a couple of comparison pictures including the original metal Convict Gunslinger and the 'Miss' version. As you can see the style is considerably different.

Thoughts and comments are (as usual) most welcome.

  1. Just picked these up today. The Danny Trejo gunslinger might fit in well with the other B-list celebrities in case, including Jim Varney (Earnest) Ratcatcher and Bill Dukes (of Predator fame) Ratcatcher.
