000 Hordes Minions Unboxing

 Be excited Hordes players! Whatever faction you play there are new releases for you this month.

001 Hordes Minions Efaarit Unboxing

We can start with one of my favorite new Hordes models, the Efaarit scouts.

002 Hordes Minions Efaarit Unboxing

A lot of bits, but what do you expect from an enormous cav model with two riders.

003 Hordes Minions Efaarit Unboxing

Look at that face. How is this guy not a winner?

004 Hordes Minions Efaarit Unboxing

It’s like a dinosaur crossed with a Bantha.

005 Hordes Minions Efaarit Unboxing

And the whole model is covered with cool pouches and other kit.

006 Hordes Minions Efaarit Unboxing

The riders are also loaded with character. There’s no Minion cavalry unit yet.
How about five of these guys riding… oh, I don’t know… terrorbirds? I’d buy that.

007 Hordes Minions Efaarit Unboxing

Here’s a shot from the back. They’re actually surprisingly tiny.

008 Hordes Minions Efaarit Unboxing

And here are all the other bits. Arms, etc…

009 Hordes Minions Gremlin Swarm Unboxing

Minion players can move on. Don’t bother looking. These guys don’t work for either contract unfortunately. Not sure why Privateer keeps doing this. Every other Hordes faction can take them.

010 Hordes Minions Gremlin Swarm

There are five gremlins to a base with one riding on another’s shoulders.

011 Hordes Minions Gremlin Swarm

This guys legs are on another piece.

012 Hordes Minions Gremlin Swarm

He’s real proud of that cog.

013 Hordes Minions Gremlin Swarm

This dude has a whole arm he’s dragging off. You can see the legs on it for the last guy.

014 Hordes Minions Gremlin Swarm

And now the reason all of you are here: gratuitous gremlin butt shot.

015 Hordes Minions Gremlin Swarm

The detail on these guys is a little obscured thanks to an excess of mold release. This is why I always wash my minis before I start painting them.

016 Hordes Minions Gremlin Swarm

Just a couple of gremlins having a good time, wrecking your armies finest machines.

017 Hordes Minions Gremlin Swarm

This last guy is chowing down on a Magelock pistol. That looks uncomfortable dude.

018 Hordes Minions Croak Raiders

We’ll finish off with this new unit. As a gatorman player I’m pretty excited about these guys, but if you’ve seen their rules you’ll probably agree that these models may be most helpful for Skorne or Legion.

019 Hordes Minions Croak Raiders

Ten metal frog people.

020 Hordes Minions Croak Raiders

There are three grunt sculpts as with the Gremlin, the fellow on the right still has some mold release that is obscuring the detail on his face.

021 Hordes Minions Croak Raiders

Here’s a look from the other side. Oh man they all have weird little tails.

022 Hordes Minions Croak Raiders

And this dude would be the leader. That’s a very impressive throat pouch you have there sir.

023 Hordes Minions Croak Raiders

024 Hordes Minions Croak Raiders

All that’s left now are the arms and quivers.

~Hope you enjoyed the article. What Minions release are you most excited about?
