Using the new CMF Gamer Black Falcon torso

Post by Elephant Knight »

So if you haven't noticed, the latest Collectable Minifig (Series 25) didn't just have a goat, it had a gamer girl with an azure torso with a Black falcon styled logo on it. Sweet, right? Unfortunately, the torso has a back print that isn't castle friendly. I thought of a couple ways to get around that.

I used a quiver to make an archer, and a small cape to make a knight. There's still the small logo on the front to contend with, but it's pretty small.

The quiver doesn't cover it all up, but does a good enough job. The small cape does better, and really, any cape would work. For normal soldiers, I think just a neck bracket would do alright.

It works pretty well! None of the 18 packages I've bought contained that one. Nor any of the castle related :lol:

Very nice. How do they look in a crowd with the more traditional styles?

I haven't actually set them in my army yet, so I'm not sure. I'll try to get some pics this weekend.
