Unboxing Malifaux - Hodgepodge Effigy

'There's something in the mist...'

The Hodgepodge Effigy box contains enough parts for one miniature...namely the Hodgepodge Effigy. It also contains a stat card for him though there are no upgrade cards.

Hodgepodge Effigy - Sprue
The box has one sprue in it as well as the aforementioned card. Here's pictures of both sides of it...

Hodgepodge Effigy - Stat Card
Wyrd Games didn't like my publishing pictures of both sides of the stat cards so you'll have to make do with this...

Should there be any assembly issues with the model then they will be listed in the appropriate section and you can view larger versions of the smaller pictures or instruction pictures by clicking on them.

Some General Notes on Assembly.
Many of these models contain quite small parts so depending on how dexterous you are you might consider getting yourself some tweezers. Dry-fitting is also always a good idea in case a part needs a tiny bit of extra filing or filling as some of the fits are quite tight. Where the parts on the sprue are quite thin (chains, weapon shafts, cables and the like) then it might be better to remove parts with a sharp scalpel rather than cutters.

Hodgepodge Effigy - Assembled
There are some fairly delicate dangling pieces on the belt section so be careful when handling those parts. The rest is a simple enough assembly and even the small arms and foot have more than adequate attachment points so should cause no issues.

Hodgepodge Effigy - Comparison Picture
Here's a comparison picture between the original metal version and the new M2E plastic one. They are very different indeed...

Thoughts and comments are (as usual) most welcome.
