Let’s start with this new character Light Warjack for Cygnar.

001 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

This guy is a fun but high point cost toy for Caine players. Even if you’re not interested in Caine, Ace is a peek at what the inevitable Hunter and Minuteman Resculpts will probably look like.

002 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

Here’s the straight on view.

003 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

And the side.

005 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

And here are the legs and head.

Next up lets have some Nyss.

006 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

As with all these plastic kits, there are a ton of pieces. After all you can assemble them into Archers or Swordsmen.

007 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

This plastic is always a little tricky to photograph, but I think you’ll agree the detail is pretty good.

008 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

I think the sculpts are also a pretty big improvement over the last bunch too.

009 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

There are three Grunt torso sculpts.

010 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

And the leader.

011 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

Possibly the coolest part are their backs, where the draconic blight has exposed their spines. A delight.

012 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

Here are some of the faces.

013 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

I was hoping there would be enough helmets for every swordsman to have one but you’ll have to mix them around. I do like the headband guy though. He’s got a good sneer.

014 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

Here are the two leader heads.

015 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

Swords.

016 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

Off arms for the swords.

017 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

And of course the archer arms.

018 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

Then these arms to pull the arrows back.

019 Warmachine Hordes Nyss Cygnar Unboxing

Last up the scabbard and quiver. Overall I was impressed by the quality of the kit. I wish all the pictures could capture the detail. There are of course some mold lines, and there are some parts here and there that aren’t perfectly crisp, but I found myself almost wiishing I was an Everblight player a couple of times because these guys look fun to paint. I’m glad the newer soft plastic kits continue to show improvement.

~Hope you enjoyed the pictures!
