Unboxing Malifaux - Lelu and Lilitu

'Beauty and the Beast...'

The Lelu and Lilitu box contains enough parts for two miniatures...namely Lelu and Lilitu. It also contains stat cards for them though there are no upgrade cards.

Lelu and Lilitu - Sprue
The box has one sprue in it split into two pieces (so it actually fits in the box one presumes) as well as the aforementioned cards. Here's pictures of both sides of them...


Lelu and Lilitu - 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.

Lilitu
Lilitu - Assembled
All the limbs are fairly thin and the barbed whip needs care taking with as it attaches to one thin wrist of the model so may need support while the glue goes off.

Other than the thin tail that needs careful handling both when removing from the sprue and when working on the model this one is issue free.
