I received my Imperial Guard Character packs from MO this morning.

These are very nice models. ?Nothing miscast in any of the blisters, which is good.

The contents are:

2 Commissar Yarricks

3 Commissars

9 Officers (5 differing models)

3 Standard Bearers (2 differing models)

5 Sanctioned Psykers (2 differing models)

1 Ogryn

3 Vox-operators

3 Guardsmen (a funny looking model this one, has an open great coat a large hat and a lasgun, I guess you could use it as an officer if you wanted)

You get these on 6 sprues in the blister, in this way.

Sprue 1 (one per blister):

Ogryn, Standard Bearer, Officer, Officer (both officers on this sprue are quite fancy looking, I think they are meant to be Supreme Commanders)

Sprue 2 (three per blister):

Officer, Vox-operator, Psyker, Guardsman, Commissar

Sprue 3 (two per blister):

Officer, Standard Bearer, Psyker, Officer, Yarrick

This pack is great, I really like the variation of the officers, and nearly all of the models are very well done. ?

My favourite model has to be the regular Commissar. ?He has a Powerfist and Bolter, and the extra detail that has been sculpted on him (its based on the old plastic commissar) is great.

Are all the characters modeled with the steel legion breather mask?

By looking at the picture it would appear they are, can you confirm this?

Thanks for the report.

Most of them have a mask.  The only ones that don't are Yarrick and the Sanctioned Psykers.

Appreciate that. Looks like these character packs are turning out to be pretty high quality.

W/D lists some of those figs as Lieutenants and Imp. Preachers.  So one of those Psykers and some of those Officers may be of what they speak ! :;):

Just got Fanatic #6 and it shows who and what you get in the SM, IG and Ork C-packs.  And how to mount them if you need guidance.  I know you Europeans, have already got this issue, but over here in the "colonies of the new world", we "rustics" are about a month behind, if not more ! :o   :;):
