Unboxing Malifaux - Carlos Vasquez

'Showgirl' is a more general term than I thought...

The Carlos Vasquez box contains enough parts for one miniature...namely Carlos Vasquez. It also contains a stat card for him and a single upgrade card.

Carlos Vasquez - Sprue
The box has one sprue in it as well as the aforementioned cards. Here's pictures of both sides it...

Carlos Vasquez - Stat and Upgrade 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.

Carlos Vasquez - Assembled
The head on this mode is very small. Though the flames themselves aren't particularly delicate the torch handles in the figures hands are a weak point so be careful when handling and when removing parts from sprue. As for the rest of the assembly as long as you're systematic it should provide no significant issues though good luck transporting the model anywhere once you've put it together...

The model is on a Resin Floorboard base purchased separately...this one is a Fenris Games one...

Here's a rotational view of the model...

Thoughts and comments are (as usual) most welcome.
Should you ever choose to purchase something based on one of my features or reviews then it would be nice if you could let the company know where the inspiration came from...who knows...they might be grateful to the poor unappreciated blogger who sent you their way...if however I've put you off a product...well...you can keep that info to yourself...

  1. I said "no sale" when I saw your Blessed of December unboxing.
    ... And promptly went all in on Twisted Alternatives box for Luther instead.

    1. The plastic Blessed of December was an interesting design direction considering it was nothing like the original metal version.
