    I have four of the male. Possibly my favorite figure of 2023. I can't imagine why the males don't come with a rifle. I have them holding the rifles that come with the the infinity knights figures. Looks great!

      Ooohh yeah, I've got spares from my pan o figs. May have to share them out. The male version is definitely superior. They look so badass!

    Corvus Billi Infinity has so many factions and characters, I really hope JoyToy can make most of them. I prefer Infinity to Warhammer for their futuristic aesthetic.

    I didn't get them since I was bothered by the pipes in case I do some head swaps. I also noticed the female has no foot articulation, that's weird. Thanks for the great review again Skelly!

    • @SkellywagsTV
      @SkellywagsTV  9 місяців тому +2

      Mortamir! Yeah, the pipes would have to be carefully removed for headswaps. I think the male is a decent buck, but will have limited customisation options. The female's foot joint starts a lot higher, so has weird angles when moving. Thanks mate, appreciate it!

    I wasn't planning on getting these, but Flyima sent me, by mistake, the female Wildcat instead of the female Monstrucker and... she's grown on me :p. Surprisingly, I manage to balance her more often than not without trying, but even looking at her knocks her down. It's the damn boot soles that are too rounded.

    • @SkellywagsTV
      @SkellywagsTV  9 місяців тому +1

      Ahh someone else mentioned they got the female fig instead of another fig they ordered. How strange. Yeah, it's a shame about the feet. Very small, quite rounded off and mine are a bit loose. She looks friggin awesome though!

    I got them a few days ago in the AliEx black friday event and its discount - 25€ per figure is not a bad deal (still in the shipping warp, though!)
    I love their Mass Effect-like look but I am not really in Infinity lore: I want to use them as some kind of close support guards for my brand new Tyrant 02 1/18 mecha.
    LOL, and I am going to use base plates all the way: I started to use them for W40K figures because it is really a must if you want to give your figures some life, like running, or jumping, or anything else than just staring upright at you in their display case.
    Cheers!

    • @SkellywagsTV
      @SkellywagsTV  9 місяців тому +1

      Wow! That's well worth the price. Ooohh these two would go really well with the black version of the Tyrant. I'm considering having these two as a special unit for my Omanga forces from Acid Rain.
      Haha yeah the base will be needed for the female figure. I'm glad for the inclusion of the stand, the first time I'll really be using one, besides the flight stands.
      Cheese Mario!

      Yeah these look awesome! The pauldrons are limited, but not as bad as I initially thought. A great release with a couple of gripes. I wonder if they would've been better with added armour pieces. Cheers Gunnar, enjoy your weekend!

      I've got two of each now thanks to Joytoy. I've given the female guns to the males and changed the feet and head of one of the females. Worked out really well!

    I got the female Nomad for free. Joy Toy had messed up my order and sent me her with Octavia when it was supposed to be NA2 Monstrucker that I was to receive. The Nomad isn't bad, I do like the aesthetic, but not my favourite of the Corvus Belli figures. Also not a fan of all the big holsters in this line. With that said, the Corvus line has been my favourite line from Joy Toy thus far.

    • @SkellywagsTV
      @SkellywagsTV  9 місяців тому +1

      Score! Damn. Summertime else mentioned that they got the exact same mix up and got this female one instead of the female monstrucker. How weird. Great figure to get for free! I do like her, even with her flaws. Loving the infinity designs!

    I am glad you got more Infinity figures to review Skelly as I do like to see your take and I actually took the plunge and preordered the female Wildcat but haven't had a chance to open it yet. Unfortuntely that is really disappointing to see the balance issues and loose foot joint as there is few few things that bother me more with figures, I like my figures to stand on there own without bases and support! Puts me off wanting to open it now and I may just sell it in the future instead though I hope it doesn't come to that. Did you ever get the female Tankhunter as I got that but never opened it and I wonder about the ankle joints with that? Makes me want to just stick with Acid Rain if I could actually get and afford them!

    • @SkellywagsTV
      @SkellywagsTV  9 місяців тому

      Hey Ollie, yeah tis a shame about the female wildcat. Hopefully it's just mine and yours ends up being OK, but I think the main issue is the boot design itself. It's very small with very little real estate to balance. That coupled with the loose ankle joint and lack of boot twist makes it really difficult to get her into a dynamic pose without the use of a stand. Having said that, on occasion I have been successful in getting her into a nice pose, sometimes with little effort. The rest works out fine, better than the male in some areas and she does look very nice.
      Not yet picked up the female tank hunter, but hope to before year end. The latest Acid Rain ladies are both great!
