INFINITY Sneak Peek: Anaconda Mercenary TAG Squad
July 16, 2013 by dignity
So guys our buddy Carlos has been up to his old tricks and sent up a few sneaky pictures of The Anaconda Squad's miniatures, and also sent us a little bit of the fluff.
"The Anaconda is a Nomad mechanized squadron that was at one point disbanded and successfully re-purposed as an independent mercenary unit, eventually signing contracts all over the Sphere. It was the Anacondas who served as an armed escort for the famed Alcinoe Expedition that managed to open the Gantvoort Route by successfully warding off the constant attacks of that satellite’s separatist groups. The Squadron saw action in each stage of the NeoColonial Wars, during which they worked for nearly every side, and in the Ariadnan Commercial Conflicts too. But despite the Squadron’s undeniable achievements, the very existence of an independent, private mechanized unit beggars belief, unless it receives support from a hidden hand. A hand that might very well be clad in black..."
As always the Infinity team have pulled out all the stops for their Gen Con mini and I'm not going to lie I'm a little jealous of every one who'll be at the event and be able to pick them up. My advice is get to the Infinity stand early so you don't miss out, and while your there don't forget the guys will have the new Infinity Art Book One and plenty of other exclusive mini for you to get your hands on.
Oh and as a last treat here's the full scale image of the pin-up for the Anaconda and it's pilot!
Bloody gorgeous
Jealous doesn’t even describe it! Must have this model!
Those are great looking models.
*takes a deep breath*
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. And look, the pilot has clothes and everything 😀
If nothing else, I’ve just found the perfect miniatures for my powersuit-wearing Supersystem hero!
Fantastic, that’s another Great TAG to bless the Mercenaries, lets hope white stars are near.
I do like that Tag, its also a great colour scheme for the painting.
Fantastic Mini, love it.
if this guy is a merc TAG, any ideas what factions he can work for?
😀
Daddy, I want one !
Winning!
Love the TAG but I really hate the new style Nomad guns.
Hmm good point. I like how it looks on the TAG art but on the pilot it looks a little strange. I like the MP5-style sliding stock because it makes sense it would need to be compact to fit into the stowage compartment on the TAG but the banana clip.. eh.. I think it needs the Pan-O spitfire mag on it 😀
It’s the same gun as the tags. From what I heard if the pilot needs to eject then she takes the tags weapon and removes some parts from the top to lessen the weight and make it man portable. If this is true then the banana clip would remain the same as it is essentially the same gun.
I’ve been waiting so long and they look so good. Unfortunately the pilot suffers the same problem as a lot of other Infinity figures, stupid pose syndrome. She jumps out of her wrecked TAG just to point her gun into the air? Really?
Stunning.
A crime if it isnt available for general sale on their website so long as gencon is open. Or goes up for normal release later in the year.
But then i hate all convention only releases, as i live in a country devoid of conventions of any size and rarely have the time/money/desire to travel far for them.
My comments on Infinity are becoming very predictable: drool, gorgeous, oh mamma, etc.
Now that truly is a thing of beauty.
YESSSS!!!!!!…..Probably a TAG that you can use on a caledonian list…….Dog Warriors & TAG running point!!!!!
I will own one! Even if I never use them it will be mine.
Oh, I think I’m in love….. the Girl looks pretty hot too…….. 😀
Oh man… It’s getting harder and harder to ignore Infinity.
Damn – that’s cool
Just begun w. Infinity this evening w. proxy minis and downloaded rules (props for that CB!!) and promptly purchased 2 starter packs (ALEPH + Yu Jing) – can’t wait till they arrive!
NICE! Yup I plan on getting the Anaconda for sure.
