The front two legs are quite delicate, as you can see, thanks to the feet only being attached by thin cables and a piston each. This does give the feeling that it's quite an agile mover, much like an Imperial Guard Sentinel in 40k.
The rear leg has a lot more stability to it. My guess would be that this is to allow for some serious recoil from the monster gun that will live on top.
The wire that hooks the gun to the body. Again, rather delicate!
Haven't worked out quite what these bits are for yet.
From mechanical to supernatural. Or more specifically, the Paranormal.
The core of the miniature is that of an unassuming young lady.
It's only when you reach this sprue that you think that something funny might be going on - that's not a normal number of arms for one person.
Add in some spooky spirity bits and you're all set for a creepy possessed miniature.
Next we have a third model from the "Large" category from the Kickstarter - Mr Dodgson. He himself isn't an overly large figure, he's an average sized gent. What makes him a "Large" are the two nippers hidden under his coat.
Each of them is armed with a knife which, on their own, have a very Goldilocks look about them. That knife is too big, that one's too small. That one on the end? That one looks just right for stabbing you with...
I'll be honest, the order I took photos in wasn't planned, and I've stuck with them in the same order as I took them due to the sheer quantity of them. This means somehow we get a 4th "Large" mini in a row, the now retired Regular Frank Hyde. He was one of the original Infamy creations and compared to Alternate Frank, he's a tiddler.
I say he's retired now - this is the replacement, which is available from the Infamy Store now!
After the beast that is Frank Hyde, lets go for something more civilized, shall we? Oscar here likes to go hunting with his fecking huge rifle, which is steadied on the back of his faithful aide.
Finally for this segment of the unboxing we have Jo March. We've already seen a Bust of her (unboxed in my Infamy Ton unboxing, here) but this is the first time she's been in miniature form.
She's in quite a dynamic pose, which looks a bit daft at the moment without any arms but one they're added, she'll be charging full speed at the enemy.
While her sword is curved, it's not really supposed to be curved off to the side, but that's what happens sometimes with thin resin. A little hot water and it'll be good as new.
For the last pictures I've saved what is probably the coolest part of Jo March - the pistol. It's very similar to other Infamy pistols, but for the fact it's got a rather Inspector Gadget/Assassin's Creed wrist mount for easy access.
So that's it for Part 3. I'm not sure when you'll get Part 4, but I can say that it'll have the rest of my pledge miniatures in it after the recent arrival of my pigeons, along with a couple of new minis that I'll tack onto the end.
