The Safety Is Off! Authorised Bounty Hunter Revealed For Infinity
March 26, 2015 by brennon
Another preview has popped up for Infinity and this time it's from those nice chaps at the Data Sphere. See what you think of the new version of the Authorised Bounty Hunter that will be available for retail...
You may remember that this deadly assassin was once the prize for ITS in 2014 but now she's been revamped to ride a rather awesome bike into battle.
She comes with her very dangerous looking boarding shotgun equipped instead of the sniper rifle but that's probably a lot easier to use when making some kind of Sci-Fi drive-by attack.
An awesome model that's had a great paint job thanks to the expert skills of Angel Giraldez and I have to pick out her hair as a bit of a highlight (how apt). It's great to see that vibrant pink hair standing out against the more dull and practical armour. Very 'anime'.
What do you think of this version of the Bounty Hunter?

Dear Infinity, You make amazing models, but does every woman in the future need to wear heels?
SHUT UP!
It’s called Fapfinity for a reason. Anyway, I question the logic of releasing a model with equipment they have 1/20 chance of getting (iirc).
How can you question the logic of releasing a miniature that looks this good? 🙂
I think most people, at least in casual game setting, will just allow you to use it (at least, my gaming group will).
And I thought it’s only me! Combat high heels are the worst feature of Corvus Belli’s miniatures. However, to be fair, not all women in infinity wear them.
If you might be going home in a body bag, you might as well look your best!
It’s part of the Infinity/manga aesthetic that runs through the game, and has been there since its original conception.
Making any comment about ‘sexy ass’ or ‘cheesecake’ in Infinity is like commenting about screaming bald men and leather in 40k. It’s just part of the DNA of what it is! 🙂
Not sure I’d call turquoise & gold “dull” but hey-ho….
Dull by comparison to the vibrant hair I should say I guess.

I wonder if the curtains match the carpet 😉 .
These minis just get better and better. Wish my painting abilities were like that…
This is the first time from a design perspective I think CB dropped the ball slighty personally. Gorgeous miniature, but the upward sweeping angle of the handlebars and brake/clutch levers is dreadful. I can only assume the designer has never ridden a sports bike in their life?
Not normally one to pick ‘factual’ holes in a fantasy futuristic miniature, but that completely breaks any sense of practicality for me. Once seen, can’t be unseen.
I hope it’s just been assembled incorrectly and that wasn’t by design?
Well spotted!
Can’t unseen them now. If I ever get this, the handlebars are getting repositioned.
Having seen the Penny bike up close the handle bar are designed to move forward and down along the body i assume while actually in motion. If you look at the bigger pics you can see the grove the move in.
those are amazing.
Her eyes say YES, but her gun says NO…not today Billy Bob!
On the subject of combat heels after watching Gardians of the Galaxy, close combat in heels now does not seem so far fetched. Also weren’t heels also worn in Aeon Flux and the Underworld series. I know they are only films but then this is only a game in a futuristic fantasy setting.
Honestly most of the time people have to point out heels for me to notice as I am usually blown away by the overall sculpt and painting. Yeah the heels are a tad silly but not no more silly than an unarmoured/cothed midriff or ‘check out my booty’ stances or wafer thin boob tubes… 😀
It’s absolutely beautiful, glad they have finally gone with the more futuristic/Akira type style rather than the chopper design.
Glad also that it will be part of the standard release!
