Cynanesque - Female Fantasy Warriors (updated with Part II: Agathodaimon)

Nice picures and figures. I think it is often worth it digging for the older pics. Second look and for most of us, first time view.

Thank you for the horse pics, I was interested in these Inflames horses and seeing them in action.
Good to hear that you like yours so much, with the special feeling of the skin and everything. It looks cool and being able to move the feet is always great. The only thing I dislike (besides the price) is this part:



It is needed for the movement, but takes a hit for the realism look. But you can't have it all, unless they finally release that full seamless horse.
(But given the price point of their full seamless dog...they better go in real mass production!)

Yikes! Now I remember why I had to pass on these InFlame horses. $330 + for a horse, despite being articulated, is out of my comfort zone.

They both look really good, I personally like Varna the most cause she reminds me of those vintage armor drawings.

Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked them. Yep, I do like the horse, but I'm aware of its limitations. If you looked at the youtube link, you'd see the graphic showing the points of articulation. They are in fact quite a few. But because concealed joints made of plastic are always an iffy solution, it's worth noting where they are. I think one of my horse's lower hind legs is now damaged (although it doesn't show). Don't worry, I won't shoot it. I agree, the seam at the front "shoulders" is annoying, but it is no worse than you see in the photo, and I suppose necessary. The head is also a separate part (the face, really), with soft cheeks (to allow for turning and articulation) and ears. I dream of a seamless steel-skeleton horse (which would be so heavy). I wish TBLeague would do that instead of their remarkably silly "centaur." And what happened with that seamless dog? I never saw it parted out. Although what they did to the head rendered it of dubious use to most of us.

Yep, pretty massive, especially now. I think it was considerably less drastic when I bought it, and I still had to think about it real hard.

Thank you, I'm very glad you liked them. Yeah, I suppose Varna's look, while simpler, is probably more relatable.

Great Story and Characters. I like the Leather and furr armor. Your Blonde Warrioress looks like more than a Valkyrie to me, than that ones Pichen / Tbl did. If You are not happy with the helmets... i get some WW2 metal helmets and modified them for my fantasy figures. The size fits not bad to female heads

GF -- the seamless dog is still available. I don't think it was ever 'parted out', but it is available separately on its own:

I really want it, but can't afford it at this point...

I thought the centaur was from Lucifer. Maybe it's a cooperation with TBLeague, but then I would assume they pay TBLeague for producing and designing it. And it might even be Lucifer's design. You can't really blame TBLeague for that.

Thank you very much -- I'm glad you liked it, and coming from you and your expertise in all things fantasy, I take it as a compliment. Yep, "Agatho" is very much Valkyrie like... in both color scheme and helmet. I appreciate the suggestion about the helmets and will keep it in mind. These two were part of a set of three that came from some old action figures (Marx?, is that right?). They were meant for male figures, and for male figures with larger heads at that -- I think. They are ok for me, but I acknowledge they are not ideal in terms of size.

Thank you for the info and link, Sky. Yeah, gorgeous beast, if a little odd, and possibly ruined for generic purposes by the silly bling -- unless that is easily removable. After my recent realization about my horses' hind leg, I'm less likely to invest in that -- the price is exorbitant, the dog is too specific for its intended look, and I don't trust plastic internal skeletons with the joints concealed by a seamless cover. Maybe if it were metal and more generic in terms of looks...?

Oh, you're probably right. It looked like such a missed opportunity to me that I didn't bother to remember.

Great looking fantasy warriors. I like the contrast too. And the seamless horse, of course. And, yeah, poor Aragorn the barbarian!

Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked it. Horse... of course. I'm sure poor Aragorn will be ok in the end. He might get some pants. And a pipe. Maybe even a crown?
