Review - Plague Gen 1 Mutant #1 for Warpath from Mantic Games

The Plague Gen 1 #1 is multi-part, single pose miniature, made from PVC.

The Plague pieces from the Deadzone Ed1 starter set required more cleaning than the Enforcers. There are lots of sprue channel remains. There was some flash on them.

The minis have individually shaped pegs on the pieces that fit the slots with the right shape, so you can only fit the pieces to their intended place.

Pieces

1x Plague Gen 1 Mutant body with legs

1x Plague Gen 1 Mutant head

1x Plague Gen 1 Mutant right arm

1x Plague Gen 1 Mutant left arm

Assembly

You can glue it together before painting, the pieces don't cover other parts.

The miniature stands on its own, without a base.

Glues together easily. It would be hard to move it into other positions. It will probably require filler to fill the gaps between the pieces.

Reposing
