    a Heavy Infantry with moira themes would be awesome.
    Making her a massive lady in armor would be double awesome.

    Is it theoretically possible to design an uglier mini? Oh my... those are hideous!

    Well CB knows the why and the how of a master/ slave mech piloting system and how it is properly designed, others... less so...

    I cannot see the Taskmaster being repackaged in the Action Pack, but I could see it in a expansion box. 2 Morlocks and a Taskmaster (Tinbot, Crazykoalas) as a Fireteam Box?

    Like already mentioned: I think some units will just disabbear in their current existenz but come back repacked in a new box...

    I for myself just hope dearly that the overall design of the Custodiers stays the same, but updated in terms of quality and scale.... The Combi Rifle Custodier is one of my most beloved modell and lured me in to play Nomads (and Infinity overall). I think i will try to get my hands on on of this beautiful ladies before they finally disappear.

    Bakunin has a lot iconic modell-designs, but they are old and some of them realy need an update. The Update old to new from the specters was great, so i have high hopes for zeros and Prowlers (maybe with some purple comic style cape and some edgy scratchy theme music? :-D )

    Man, please don't remind me of that atrocity.

    I am trying to stay positive for the Bakunin visual remake, but looking at that utterly horrible model makes me worried.

    I would not go as far as calling it an atrocity, but it is not the strongest TAG release ever.

    I do not think myself this is a master/ slave system, to me it feels like a control for the main gun.

    I kind of love the ugly mess that is the Bultrak, I only which it was scaled a bit smaller, and that there was some better design of the gun, and how it is placed on the model, (as it is sculpted, there is no real mounting on the back). The pogo monke right in the middle though? Sheer excellence.

    It has the same charm of a gangrenous wound.

    Really, it's so, so bad.

    But focusing on bakunin, I actually think streamlining the art and design is something CB has been doing well so far, with the new corregidor models looking gorgeous, and MO also was great (MAF was nearly perfect, save for that abomination).

    For Bakunin, where's what I hope:
    - Jurisdictional command troops get to keep their sleek, streamlined looks, so Moderators, prowlers, zeros, taskmasters, etc.
    - Observance troops double down on the religious aspect, with less stupid stuff and more pratical but still sexy models like the most recent Kassandra model from Defiance;
    - Riot grrls keep the dumb as fuck but awesome design.

    One minor worry that I have is regarding character boots: There has been a lot of replacing high heeled boots for platformers, and platformers are actually WORSE than high heels for action (Platform shoes keep your feet from bending, thus making running and balacing harder). I would actually prefer if Moiras and riots kept their high heels, but this is a very, very minor design thing that I'm not willing to die on.
