Unboxing Malifaux - M2E Molemen

A perfect example of the phrase 'never volunteer'...

'Small Box' Cover.

The Molemen box contains enough parts for three miniatures...namely the Molemen. It also contains stat cards for them though there are no upgrade cards.

Molemen - Stat Cards (M2E)

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

Molemen - Assembly
I had some minor issues with alignment with these models so they'll all be getting a bit of filler treatment before under-coating...

Molemen 1 - Assembled
Two part head and separate small feet were the only minor issues with this model.


Molemen 2 - Assembled
This one was issue free...other than the issue I mentioned at the beginning, lol.


Molemen 3 - Assembled
The tail piece can push the body halves apart if the gap isn't trimmed slightly (at least on mine) and each limb and 'hand' is separate with the head being in three parts. The middle portion of the head slots into the body and I inserted this first before attaching both haves of the head to it...this turned out to be a mistake as it made getting a good fit tricky (you can see the gap on the photo). I can only presume therefore that assembling the head completely before attaching it to the body would have been a better idea...



Here's a group picture.

Here's a few comparison pictures between the new plastic and original metal versions.

Thoughts and comments are (as usual) most welcome.

  1. Those are some crazy gaps on that kit.

    1. Though I don't normally with unboxings I'll probably also add some pictures of the models with the gaps filled...when I get around to filling the gaps...

  2. No doubt : the new ones in plastic are better than olders' in metal 0_0
