Yes. And it'd be wonderful if said pegs were actually the same size so I'd not have to sit and file each and every peg down to a workable size. Gamma comes with one 2mm peg and one 5mm peg and I think it was Hippolyta who had a 2.5mm peg. *grumbles* Preferably 2mm. That way it makes less damage when you drill a hole in Designed For Infinity bases. (Hippolyta's now got the tactical junk removed and a clear acrylic GW skimmer peg stuck up her skirt in the least obscene way I could manage - word to the wise; those flight pegs need a 2mm hole and a 3mm diameter area below the hole due to the shape and due to the spread of her legs you need to file the peg closest to the hole to a 3 to 2mm ovaloid shape).
syntax error. I intended it to be read as “no matter the bottom of the mini, it would have a peg instead of a bar”
The problem is that you run out of poses without tactical junk. There's only so much you can do with feet level, adding just a little variation makes a huge difference. I'll take tactical rocks over everyone standing the same way.
or you can get the miniature with one foot on the air, as with some old n1 models (female mobile brigada comes to mind, or the sitting in the air MSR spectr). People doesn't get to understand those poses and tactical junk help there, but I would prefeer that extra were optional, so I could swap it to my own personal tactical junk (As I did with that female mobile brigada)
I'd like to see more crouching/taking cover positions, ala Kamau HRL. Though I'm sure those are unpopular aswell because its makes an S2 model half size
As someone who has been assembling and basing a lot of minis this week, I am all for a standardized peg/pin size on the bottom.
The only crouching/taking cover positions I dislike are the ones like this Acontecimento Regular Sniper. I still haven't put it together yet, because I haven't decided how to mark the facing. She's clearly ducking behind a wall for cover, so that's probably the direction she is shooting, but she is facing the opposite direction with her back against the wall. Don't get me wrong, it's a cool pose. It's just doesn't mesh with the rules for facing in the game.
I think the images are actually too big. If you see some of Angel images that big you'll see the "bad" things too. Their normal release images are much smaller than that.
So I only mark the left/right hashes. Typically, the thing is sitting on a 40mm base for sapper anyway, so the facing of THAT base is the really important one.
It still doesn't change the fact that the model is contradicting itself on facing. Shooting one direction but looking the other.
That is not the only one doing that! In my meta there's people that go with the eyes and some the shoulders for facing. So what matters is the base, not the fig for LoF.
Did anyone else receive their Wildfire box kind of squished flat and popping out the sides? It seems like losing the interior box and just making the exterior box a thicker cardboard didn't provide the necessary support.
I have a sneaking suspicion whatever sat on your box may have been too much even for the plastic trays.
