If it's something you know you want, you should set aside the maximum amount of money you're willing to pay for it, then DO NOT TOUCH that money unless it's an absolute emergency. The key to these things is planning ahead, so you're >>4286891
100% ready when a good deal pops up.
>>
>>4286891

>>
>>4286866
The Mars body looks sweet, but I'm not digging the head. It's obviously going for a retro Nagai-type aesthetic, but it's not quite there, at least for me. Something about the shapes and proportions isn't working.
>>
>>4286899
For me it's the pupils that throw it off. I think it's pretty cool overall, but it's way to fucking big for me to even entertain the thought of buying it.

>>4286891
That's rough son. What is it you have your heart set on? Mandy prices for 3A aren't particularly great most of the time, so it'll pop up elsewhere (KR etc) at a price you can manage eventually.
>>
>>4286899
I have to somewhat agree. I love super robots and own way to many Mazingers for my own good and this thing still is just not speaking to me at all. And its not just the head, its the whole look of the thing.

And I think part of it is the very blatent joints mainly where the legs meet the body. That is the one awesome thing about robot toys, its super easy to make the joints look natural to the overall design, and Ash has managed to fuck that up badly.

They're not hidden, they don't look like anything functional, its just a ball and socket.

The most I'll pay for it as is, is probably not enough for them to make a profit on it. I'd honestly pay very little more than u would for a 1/6th, So 200 Max.
>>
>>4286929
The hip joints don't bother me really. In fact, from what I can see they may be a barbell-style double balljoint, which might create an interesting range of motion there. We'll see.
>>
>still no TK hunter, heavy slicer or archer

Fuck, at least I'll be going for the Ninja. Also black is a little misleading, it's the one that was shown at supanova who was greyish brown the white one is even lighter.

Like I said in a previous thread, their Iron Man is really starting to get to me, even with the rubber arms and legs. It looks pretty fucking sexy, and I get weaker every time I see it. I mean, shit...so maybe it'll tear someday. I can enjoy the shit out of it until then, and even after that, hell, I'm not a super picky guy. I think I can live with some tearing rubber.

I like it, I just wish he'd done like medicom and put some thick stretchy clothes over the limbs. Would've preserved the look and the articulation without making it a hunk of shit in a few years.

The 7/23 sale is for Bamba-only versions of the stuff that going to be available at SDCC. Different colorways, etc.

From 3A's news item: "July 23rd SDCC SALE ( CYBORG ADVENTURES, COSPLAY SQUARE MIYU AND IRONMAN, all different to previously mentioned versions)"

I just ordered a DIY ceasar and square.

How hard is it to take these things apart?
>>
>>4290451
Ranges from simple (popping off balljoints) to medium (knocking out pins) to difficult (cutting/cracking open glued hinges). To entirely disassemble a bot is kind of a pain the ass, really.

Also, you'll need a hairdryer on hand to heat up the vinyl if you want to pop it apart. Hot water might work as well but I think the hairdryer will work better in this case (as well as have less chance of damaging the paint).

If you're asking because you're going to be painting them, most people just partially disassemble and go from there. Taking it completely apart is very difficult, not worth the effort, and you'll probably break something.
>>
Just got the mad butcher here. I like to think of him as the robot version of Daniel Day-Lewis' character from Gangs of New York.

One of the good things about getting into ThreeA late is that there's plenty of WWR to go back and collect.

1/6 Dropcloths are my favorite.

New to ThreeA. I found an online store with spare parts and accessories, how difficult would it be to put together a grunt in 1/12? Seems like a stupid question but I really want to make my own.
>>
>>4291623
Nearly impossible, grunts have a ton of gear and layers and hardly anybody sells 1/12 gear. Why don't you just get the DIY and paint it if you want a custom? If you're trying to save money by just buying parts it is always more expensive to buy a figure a la carte as opposed to buying the complete product

I wish the EMGY and the original 4-pack weren't so expensive. I'd love a Medic. However, retail Dropcloths are pretty cheap.

Iron Panda is classic, but the Uncle 5 has really nice, subtle metal weathering all over. Oily and rusty but without the usual large spongemarks.

Indeed. The IP Dropcloth is what got me into 3A in the first place. It looks great and I love the Dead Eyes Open tampo.
>>
Are there fake threeA figures out there? And aside from the bambaland store and kidrobot forum, what are some reliable stores/markets that sell threeA?

I've seen quite a few listings on ebay and amazon and was wondering if I would be safe shopping there.
>>
>>4295661
There are no bootlegs, bootlegs in general are rare for 1/6 scale figures.
>>
>>4295661
Like the guy above said, no bootlegs exist. Though, there are "recasters" that well, recast certain parts (usually rare or desirable parts). A least in my experience, these guys are always up-front about their recasts and don't try to trick you or anything. Recast parts are also usually unpainted and not as nicely cast as the originals, so it's pretty easy to tell.

You could also join the Facebook BST. And there's an "unofficial BST" forum that commonly lists some rarer pieces for sale, but you need to sort of apply for membership after being a longtime/well-known member of the 3A forums. There are rules and shit, like you need to post often and make good posts and whatnot, go check out the forum for more details.

eBay and Amazon listings are usually fine. Just be as cautious as you would from any other seller. You may also want to beware of preorders on eBay--I'd stay away from those as they offer potential to be ripped off.
>>
>>4295759
It's a lot easier to get into the BST forum now, I had my official forum account for less than a week with only 4 posts and I got in
>>
>>4295954
Also it's not that special, mostly the exact same stuff and people as kidrobot, just much slower
>>
Info up for the SDCC sale, it is a limited sale so I guess that means some of this stuff will be gone pretty fast. Prices are 150 for clear Pascha, 120 for square Pascha, 220 for Iron man and 460 for the lot.
>>
>>4295968
If the cyborg ends up being Liz or Miyu I'll grab that, but if it's just a somehow different Isobelle I'll grab the Iron Man since I already got one of the IDW Cyborgs.
>>
>>4296414
They are all the same as the actual SDCC figures it seems
>>
>>4296511

Did they ever actually announce anyone selling the Iron Man at the con?

Square cosplay Miyus are different colours for Bamba. The ones ToyTokyo are selling at the con are brown wombat shitcubes while bamba gets green and yellow.

>>
>>4298351
If I could just buy Liz and be done with it I'd be in, but I can't be fucked with blind boxes or shelling out for a four pack.
>>
>>4298381
Same. I want a specific headsculpt, but these will most likely be blindboxed. It's a shame really. I think ThreeA should limit their blind picks to smaller shit, like Squares or smaller WWRp figures (a wave of blindboxed Dropcloths would be lovely, for instance). But taking a gamble on a full 1/6 figure, even one on the cheaper side, is just too much for me to bear.
>>
>>4298386
Yeah, I already ordered the IDW Paschaborg with the original Iso headsculpt which I prefer over ponytail or long-hair versions, so I don't really want to risk the 50% chance of the blindbox containing another, less desirable Isobelle.

I'll just see if I can grab a Liz or Miyu from a BST once they ship. Pascha stuff doesn't go for nearly the price it used to now that loads have come and gone through Bamba so I figure I won't miss out, and if I do miss out then at least I got the SDCC version.

Gonna buy the fuck out of an Iron Man though. Bring on sale day.
>>
>>4298396
>Pascha stuff doesn't go for nearly the price it used to
While that is true, I sort of expect these to be popular on the aftermarket. Gonna be lots of trading going on I'm sure, and also a lot of folks seem to be excited by ThreeA's foray into clear plastic. Shit, I know I am.
>>
>>4298386
And yep, they confirmed on FB that blind singles are $150 shipped, so $127.50 if you're 3AA.
>>
>>4298402
Alright, yeah, I'm out. I'm not 3AA this year so I get the full painful buck and a half. And for a blind pick, no less. Too rich (and risky) for my blood.
>>
>>4298396
Someone on kidrobot is already splitting a set
>>
>>4298408

Yeah saw that - Main problem is from the second it was even hinted there'd be a cyborg for Bamba all anyone wanted was Liz, myself included. If anyone's keen on any of the other three, pending 4-way price, a split will likely be the best option though.

If I didn't have my heart set on an Iron Man now I'd probably settle for a Miyu from a split, though.
>>

I think everything but the TK gloves go with that, he really should make some understated tk gloves like he did with the TK heavies.

This is killing me, I really fucking want that Iron Man, but I can't buy it because I know it'll rip itself apart in a year or two. I can't make that sacrifice, I had red devil sham, she could barely move and her suit was already showing signs of wear.

At least I got the ascended white cowboy, things amazing, even though he can't use his rifle at all.

I have succesfully undressed Dead Astronaut Gangsta down to his jumpsuit. Honestly it was a pretty easy and painless process considering how paranoid everyone online seemed to be about doing it. Ive yet to see a reviewer who has covered the process. Everything is held together with velcro and buckles, and nothing struck me as fragile.

The only area that will likely give someone trouble is getting the neck of the suit off, you really have to be a little careful lining up the snoopy cap with the rest of the assembly. I reccomend everyone doing it to properly line up and align the clothing netter than factory, It makes him look better.

One thing did strike me ass odd though, the undersuits text and logo are just normal clothing decals, and not embroidered like the rest of his clothing. Also his true type body is not weathered looking, and is completely clean unlike a lot of 3A stuff ive handled.

If anyone has questions regarding the process feel free to ask.
>>
>>4300671
People on the forums have been doing this since day 1, did you keep the fat suit off after dressing him? Keeping it off increases articulation and looks better.
>>
>>4300731
I did not know that it would look better without it, hadn't visited any forums or anything recently. Is it really that drastic of a change?

No, but it does look better. More natural.

>>
>>4301405
Very minor changes. That is nearly the same pose I have him in, with the fat suit on. The only difference is his limbs are slightly tighter against his body. Which has less to do with the fat suit limiting his arms and more to due with being able to have the space suit push in towards his body now with the fat suit out of the way.
>>
>>4303436
>more to due with being able to have the space suit push in towards his body now with the fat suit out of the way.

If the arms have more range with the fat suit out of the way that that means the fat suit was limiting their movement. But yeah, minor changes but still worth doing I think.

Nope, custom head of a concept character. I had some random parts left over, and I decided to do something with them once Todd sold me a body for dirt cheap.

I love how they went with the boxy-type ninja hood instead of the generic head-hugging ninja mask. I've always loved that look.

>>4307815
IIRC, someone's Dropcloth elbow came apart before and it sorta works like a big two-part pin going through the upper and lower arm pieces. There should be an inner lip of the round part you can pry away, that's the inside of the pin. I feel like I'm not explaining myself very well, I hope you understand.

Only main bodies (and often backpacks) are rotocast vinyl. The other parts, like limbs, heads, weapons, etc. are typically made of ABS.

Also, as another DC/DC 1.5 owner, the bicep swivel has never felt particularly weak to me, and all of my Droppies are A-ok after months to years of ownership and reposing.

I'm sure a lot of people here miss the days when WWR was Ash's favorite child but it's nice to see other lines getting their time to shine, TK and AK in particular had stellar 2013s and are looking great well into 2014 too.

Looking better and better, still can't bring myself to grab one, they lack armor, and I hate shorts.

Why does he always put high heels on? Can't we get regular converse like the good old days?>>4317431
It'll come back, truthfully I'm happy about that, I liked way too many of those designs, I'd be instantly broke if he was pumping them out like the old days!


FOR EVERYONE WHO MISSED THE NINJA.
Go stalk Kidrobot 3a bst, they'll probably pop up, sometimes guys even buy multiples so that they can sell them at cost to people who missed out.

Could've sworn Ash said there'd be more of them down the line, too.

TK is not a line, TKs are characters in the Popbot universe.

>>4317741
>Can't we get regular converse like the good old days?
At least to my knowledge and memory, only one female has ever come with flat-footed Chucks (Little Shadow). And again, unless I'm mistaken, the only other female figure to come with flat-footed shoes is Queeny. Ash loves his feet, and theoretically at least heels are the sexiest way to showcase them.
>>
>>4318195
No doubt they're from Popbot, but TKs have kind of split off into their own toyline now. They're even listed under their own 'Tomorrow Kings' section in WO3A's toys gallery.
>>
>>4318195
I think UKTQ has flat boots.

New shipping notice on the blog, Snowpea + seamonkey and girls and MS74 (again?) Also looks like Shadow Merde shipped unannounced because people already have him.

I'm guessing Iron Man and the Strigoi will be next to ship. Hope Marquis isn't too far off, I want the shirt I got.

apparently it's going up 8th of august, going by the image.

Expect the price to be within the 120-220 range. Most likey the lower end, more if he comes with some crazy extras.
>>
>>4319907
Delayed to august 8th huh? Honestly the design doesn't do much for me, looks like a nightmare to pose too due to that sculpted cloak. Doesn't look like he has any head movement at all.

>>4319911
not yet but it will probably be $140, seems to be the standard for more complex human figures.
>>
>>4319925
I'd think Ash would make it out of cloth if anything, unless it's made of that silicon bullshit. But it wonr be a problem if you don't try and pose it much.
>>
>>4319920
3A are pretty bare bones as far as accessories go, but if he has the nurses though I could see it being $300 - $350. As a single figure I think >>4319925 is right. Wu and the recent slicer were both $140
>>
>>4319933
I thought the same but you can tell by the folds around the neck that it is sculpted. Wouldn't be the first time we've had a near immobile figure, remember Sham?
>>
>>4319940
Yes I do, I had her, unintentionally flipped for a profit too after kidrobot wouldn't buy her at sub 100$.

Nom mother had a suit like hers though, worked wonderfully. Maybe it's a temp thing, he might change it if enough people ask, unless he's intentionally supposed to not move much, which I could see being the reason.
>>
>>4319949
Sometimes kidrobot is like that, I just saw someone finally sell their 3AA Blanc hunter for like $70 there jeez. After my recent eBay experience though I think I'll just stick to forums

I hope there's something interesting under the cloak, looks bland as shit so far.

Eh, the KDA shirt is only lewd if you look closely. From a distance or at a casual glance it doesn't really read since her hands and the spacesuit straps are framing her vag and making it less noticeable.

>>4319873
>makes it look like high level smutt
I think the man would be proud to hear you say that.

>>4319907
Looks cool, but the sculpted cloak really isn't anything special and doesn't take advantage of the fact that it's sculpted IMO. If it's gonna be sculpted I wanna see some crazy ripples and folds and torn ends blowing in the wind or something. The way it looks now, he could easily have done a shaped cloak like the EVOL Berties and preserved full poseability. In fact, their cloak shapes are kind of similar to be honest.

The first EVOL Plume was put up for preorder a whole back too: Marquis de Plume. But yeah, overall there hasn't been a whole lot of WWR/EVOL stuff lately. Hoping Ash jumps into it full swing next year, it feels like we've been kind of getting only Popbot/Pascha/licensed stuff lately.

The EVOL Bertie is the same Bertie Mk.2 mold, but with a new head (with a scopelike monoeye that is balljointed), new feet with toe joints, and two raygun-looking pistols. Oh, and the cloak, which has a space for the monoeye to peek through. It's also one of the first ThreeA figures to be weathered, but also have a glossy finish. It's an unusual choice, but it's actually kind of cool.

I agree with you I was watching the new release teasers and it just felt like for the past year and a half we've been swimming in TK/Popbot and third party stuff lately.

That Evol Bertie hasn't hit shelves yet has it? If not I can contact my old dealer and ask him to put aside at least one for me.

What other color choices are there besides the white and the black ones?

>>
>>4321564
>encouraged to come up with your own story
Glyos does the same thing. Maybe I'm just not very imaginative, but that gimmick just feels so lazy.
>>
>>4321571
To be honest 3A is more about making cool toys than making a comprehensive narrative. Most figures have some established character or backstory, you just fill in the gaps with your imagination. I like it.
>>
>>4321571
The guy made and desgined some cool toys, just because every single one doesn't have a cool backstory doesn't mean it's lazy. It's not a "gimmick" in fact, that's probably one of the most retarded things I've ever heard, there's plenty of things that barely have any story, or had story added to them later down the line.

There's always someone complaining about how the figures have "no story" or something like that. Well, if it's so easy, why don't you do it. Hell, while you're at it, why don't you make a whole book full of characters, make figures out of them, then sell them to people.
>>
>>4321626
One of the reasons I went for a WWR figure is because they seem to have so much individuality and personality behind them. So long as they're not factory-new editions, each that comes out of the hatchery has seen some reasonably serious shit, scuffed and shot to fuck in a hellish war.

There's a lot to infer about the models in that way, I feel. Plenty to fill in by yourself. It's all really neat.
>>
>>4321637
Yeah, they're easy to customize too. Really most of them are, even simple things like how their gear is worn. Taking a look at some of the 1/6th collector websites, you can see the love they put in squads. All with mixed equipment, added armor, modified gear.

You can really just sit there and imagine the kind of things they went through.

It has. It was part of a Portable 3-pack, one Bertie and two NOM Commanders (Post Fire and Thrice Naught). There was also a companion set in all black. The white set was called Emanation, the black set Caliginosity. Preorders went up many months ago, the figures were released about 2 months ago.
>>
Why is it that bots differ in stature within WWR to the extent that they do? Berties, Armstrongs, and Martins feel particularly low to the ground, though large and stout for wielding big stuff, perhaps. Would the longer legs of the Dropcloths and Caesars imply greater propensity for mobility?
>>
>>4321995
Probably. Martins are like artillery platforms more or less, Armstrongs were build for zero/low gravity and saw most of their use on the moon, though their does seem to be a ground type model it doesn't see as much use as the bertie. Dropcloths and Caesars share much in common but caesars are larger and less widespread in use. Both are newer models though they haven't replaced the bertie, which Ash has described as "the AK-47 of the WWR universe".

My favorite for a long time has been Armstrongs, I can't get over how good this paint scene was.

The articulated eye (only one of its kind on a bot for awhile), the jetpack with articulated thrusters and that overall impractical design earned him a permanent spot on my shelf. Only thing I could have ever asked for was more bots in this colorway ;_;

One thing I adore about the Armstrong is it's tall, judging stance. That single rotary eye sitting high atop its perch, gazing at everything below it like an ant.

I even like the design. Looks like a big robot with a low center of gravity, plenty of space for a large internal computer for advanced routines, and a jetpack to get around and screw stuff up on the moon.

Considering how long they took to release the Bambaland versions it should not be a massive suprise. Also you really shouldnt pre-order 3A stuff until its announced its shipped to retail, especially not from sketchy sites.

Yeah, I heard about the Bambaland delays.
I just assumed 3A would get their act together for a retail release.
They're not dealing with (im)patient fans now, but stores and distributors. Can't leave them hanging forever, I figured.
I thought they'd have less trouble with a repaint as well, but I guess not.

I don't own any 3A figures yet, so I'm kinda new to this thing.
Hopefully they'll be able to get them out there in august, when I'm still covered by paypal.

HALT!

EMGY Dropcloth arrived earlier today. Holy fuck is he cool. Big, too. Absolutely superb figure. Really doesn't look like you can go too wrong with 3A.

First thing I did was stick the holsters right up front and swap the bags around.
>>
>>4324975
Nice, that's one of my favorite recent releases. Between the dual pistols, cleaver, SMG, baton, and riot shield, there are a ton of options for display or play. The mini-shields on his arms are cool as fuck too, for blocking shots or bashing in heads.

Popbot for me, love that lanky bastard.

From WWR I guess it'd be Mk2 Berties. I don't own a Caesar yet, but every time see one I wonder why the fuck I don't, they're pretty awesome looking too.

Any britfags know where's best to pick 3a products up, preferably 1/6th. Amazon a shit.
>>
>>4327581
Hit up one of the Britfag sellers on the KidRobot forums. There are at least a few guys I see regularly. You'll want to register an account, then head to the Kitchen Sink -> ThreeA BST thread and look through the last few pages, which have the latest listings. On a side note, I think you're not allowed to private message people (to conduct sales/trades) until you've built up a certain number of posts, like 10 or 15 or some shit. So just go into some other random Kitchen Sink threads (like "what are you playing?" or "what are you listening to?") and post replies to fill up your quota fast. I mean, don't spam or shitpost or anything, that shit will get you banned, just post decent replies in some unimportant threads, you feel me?

There's also OneSixthBruce, which is UK-based. They only get retail releases of course, but that may be helpful to you anyway.

Will SeaMonkey be released at retailers or do i have to go off of the secondary market now?

Secondary. It amazes me how long Seamonkey has been in the works though, Ash has been working on it with Kenny since like 2009. Too bad we never saw the 1/6 version released.
>>
>>4328067
It'd need to be really huge, and made out of hard plastic with little to no vynil. I guess he figured it'd be more cost effective to do it this way.

And honestly nobody would have room for the 1/6 anyways.

what if it was world war rapebot

and the trashcan/tampon/box robots all had enormous dicks attached to them

and their purpose was to fuck people and other machines to death

and combat would consist primarily of robots with jackhammer dildo fingers breaching eachothers hulls and making sweet, traumatic love to everything inside

and darwin was just on the moon fucking laughing his ass off

>I figured ash wouldn't make a female zomb, she's human...or a robot thing I guess.
Why do you think she's not a zomb? Her skin is a dusty bone-white, her hands look like they have that gnarled zomb look to them, and we can't see her face yet. The only thing that might say robot to me is the cord, but knowing Ash, that might be something else than a power cord. We'll see.

Yeah, the shield weathering style was a really divisive choice. A lot of people were mad about that, since it didn't match their existing EMGY squads. I like it personally, I think it's well done, but I do have to agree, it doesn't really match any other EMGY stuff--not even the very bot it comes with.

>>
>>4334365
Sadly, >>4334378 is right. AP's really sorta been on the backburner lately, and they've fallen so far behind at this point there may be no reasonable hope of ever catching up again. Not to mention Ash is starting up a whole new scale to contend with, the Megos. I wouldn't hold my breath for an AP Zomb MD anytime soon, or maybe ever.
>>
Can the 1/6th scale figures fit in a detolf?

I've avoided the 1/6th scale toys in the past because they are just so fucking huge. I mean I love my zaku, but hes just so fucking bulking, it can be a pain in the ass posing him.
>>
>>4334442
I have something that is essentially a deltof. If you pose the bots dynamically, you can. If you have 1/6th figures, it's really easy to do. Each square cube for display is about 18" tall, right? It'd be common sense that they would!

Makes sure you don't crowd the display square though, three a square seems to look decent.
>>
>>4334442
Yup, sure they can! These guys are all 1/6.

And yeah, the Zaku is extra-large. Plus he's actually not 1/6 scale, he's 1/60 scale.

Thanks for the responces! My collection is pretty small at the moment, but i would like to expand it with a at the very least a popbot, heavy bramble, and drop cloth.

Those 1/6 brambles look REALLY nice and I think would scale nicely with my 1/12 Ceasars. Besides the bramble I'll probably stick with 1/12 for the bots and get 1/6th versions of one of figures that I like such as iron mongrol.

The ceasar is one of those toys that you really need to have in hand to appreciate, pictures just dont do it justice. I was hooked after my first one.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who finds it goofy Lasstranauts 3AA Package gets a extra bonus for "patients" when my Lost Planet Merc is severely late and its hardly the only order like this. So much shit is late and we get nothing normally, but this shit is currently on time and they do this.

These figures aren't meant to come apart. If that shield is removed it'll never fit properly again. Hopefully no one is tricked by you.

On the 'new' 3A instagram account - http://instagram.com/wedonttalkaboutlove3a

Ash renamed his previous account to 'ashleywoodart' and now just posts his artworks there, and 3A stuff on the new account.

I just want Lass and the artbook, the patch is nothing special. It'll show up when it shows up and the waiting doesn't rustle my jimmies either way, but I guess any bonus is welcome.
>>
>>4336036
Sweet, I honestly like this. Still going to flip Lass on ebay, not too keen on having her in a display, more or less waiting on Wu more than anything.

The t-shirt and the artbook are cooler than her by a mile.

Got my SDCC Pashcaborg today. It's weird and cool. I like her a lot. I was surprised that the torso is made of transparent soft vinyl stuff like the regular female bodies, I expected it all to be hard plastic.
>>
>>4336036
Yeah its nothing amazing but it is still something for essentially nothing under some weird ass logic.

I feel like Ash just felt like making this patch for some reason and added it into the bundle. But I feel like presenting it as compensation for "patients" is retarded, if they actually gave a shit almost all of their late orders would have some sort of bonus, but they don't. So why do it now on an order that isn't late?

Tldr: They should have just said they are also throwing in a patch, and not tried to make it out as some gift for being "patient".
>>
>>4336240
I feel similarly, the flipside being, maybe he means the wit in general, as Lass was requested for a long timme since the line started?
>>
>>4336406
Perhaps. But honestly that's kind of silly as well considering how long he has made people wait for things to even reach pre order like Archer and such. Maybe he thinks doing this sort of unpredictable nonsense is funny but its really not, when money is involved I don't like surprises unless they consistently happen in a pattern and when it feels warranted.

I just wish they would actually start doing this with all their 3+ month later orders unless it will slow them down more significantly. And I'm not talking big things, I would almost say that they should throw in extra accessories like the ones from 3AA sets when things are late. If heavy was late give the buyers some recolored boxing gloves, if the Lost Planet Mercenary is late pack in some more weapons from in game and so on.

My point is they could give people bonuses and have them take very little work.
>>
>>4336538
>I don't like surprises unless they consistently happen in a pattern and when it feels warranted.
Then it's not a surprise. It's a token of appreciation, albeit it should've gone to figures that were later, but there's nothing to be done about it now.

I don't think you know how much work that would actually require though. You have to pay a sculptor, then pay to have a mold made, then pay to have it produced/painted/shipped, then pay the workers. That's a lot of money to offset waiting a few weeks. A patch is easy, bonus weapons and parts are not.

If he'd started making those weapon packs everyone wants, maybe he could've thrown those in, but he can't. I think you're expecting too much from waiting a bit too long, despite me agreeing with you on the point that something should've been done to compensate longer orders.
>>
Even though it's far from the latest 3A item in history, they're probably throwing in a little extra here because this is a 3AA pack. Compared to the maybe four people who bought lost planet thing way back when there are a huge number of people waiting for their membership packs.

Ehh, I don't see it. Like, at all. When you said "like Rehel's face" I was anticpating some twisted, heavily lined zomb abomination when I opened the pic. But NOPE. That's a pretty fucking ordinary ThreeA female facesculpt, with the standard triangular nose and upturned "v" mouth. The only thing that really looks zomb about it is the drip of drool (and possibly the hands, but they're not zomb enough almost--everyone in the ThreeA universe has angular hands to begin with). And yeah, I don't really see the alleged mannishness either. I mean, they do seem to have longer, pointier chins than other females (which usually have very rounded faces) but it's not enough that I'd call it
"mannish."

I'd probably be happy to have these gals on my shelf. If I weren't broke atm and out of display space, that is.
