    I feel like every other mini in the CB line is inspired by some pop culture thing, but for the life of me I can't figure out what the alguacils are supposed to be.. Does anyone know who they ( the core 3 or the support pack) are? Even Better if there's a database of who's supposed to be what htat'd be swell.

    I don't think there is a direct inspiration for them, they just general space punk gangers. I mean the other units in that starter don't have a direct inspiration either. The MB looks a bit like Briareos, but so does every Pan-O HI or TAG too.

    Yeah, the alguaciles were sculpted in a time before every Nomad sculpt had to be a ripoff of a comic book character. I miss that

    The only time that Infinity miniatures didn't include references to other media was the time before Infinity existed.

    Perhaps that's the truth, but when I compare the actual Morlock with the previous one, I prefer the not Suicide Squad one.

    While I actually liked the original Morlocks:

    They haven't aged well, but they were pretty unique.

    I bought a blister of first gen Morlocks a while ago on a sale. Had to put them on a lot of cork so they would fill the silhouette more, but they aren't bad sculpts.
    I like that Corregidor clothes look like a cross between a prisoner uniform and a mechanic jumpsuit, with some chest armour on top. Sells the fluff well.

    I want that morlock blister, I think those models have attitude. You're fortunate to find them.
