UV | Pocket Universe General Toy Discussion

Looks nice, would love to be able to afford to collect in different scales but i need to just stay with one:sixth. Very cool though.

WWR... With Ashley Wood, worlds collide???

I just wonder how well sales are going in general and also specifically with these pocket figures?  I mean are folks really into these limited articulation figures with the plethora of other action figures out there with better articulation?  I mean, yes I know there are other companies producing limited articulated figures.  I'm just curious if the demand is high?

Anyway, I guess I'll just watch from the sidelines to see what comes in the future...

I guess the demand is low… production prices go up and demand down. If will take a while until we see some of the more pricey stuff like 1/12 and 1/6 bots. And even for the „more simple“ stuff it takes forever… three years for 1/6 tk? Hard to fullfill the expectations of hardcore collectors that waited so long. The products are good but the game changed! Hopefully they adjust to this ne game and we will see many more releases.

Anyway
A hair and a bit taller than the 1/12th scale WWRp Armstrongs released exactly 12 years ago on Bambaland (I miss Bamabaland)
Pretty thrilled about this release since the 1/12th Armstrongs are my favourite WWRp robots.

Pocket Universe | WWR Armstrong 1G MK5 pre-orders open April 29th at Underverse.com and the UV Tmall!

The POCKET UNIVERSE 1/18th scale series spans across every original world created and designed by Ashley Wood, all at a pocket scale! Each figure is pre-painted, assembled, and ready to take your adventure on the go!

Armstrong preorder will be delayed until further notice. Bumped into an unexpected issue with the factory who were planned to do the manufacturing

Oh shit! Fingers crossed all my other pre orders are in safe hands

Dang, I am looking forward to this one. I wasn't going to collect this scale but I preordered a few from bbts. Probably do the same with this. Orange all the way.

Damn shame.
Well, hopefully soonish.

All of your preorders are fine and are unaffected

The factory we were gonna use gave us an outrageous cost quote, so we're gonna take the Armstrong to a different factory. Will just take time to vet new factories for future production

Déjà vu...

A bit off topic but,
any idea when we can except various pre-orders to ship?
Super curious how various production pieces turned out.

So 180 usd for the new bots… can’t imagine what prices will like for bigger scales.

UV's WWR2 Square Mk5 did US$140 including shipping.
So US$180 for a 8 inch (20cm) high robot isn't that chocking imo.

First Bertie the Pipebombs were US$330 including shipping
That makes this one is still cheaper per inch.

Would be fun though, if Underverse was able to actually produce an 1/6th robot in the price range of the original 2008 Bertie
however I assume that a toy like that will be pretty hard to sell these days.


Tons of articulation on this Armstrong.

Just received my tracking number for the Desert 666 Corp Faction Bramble MK8 version... and I share 2 photos of the released products.... looks good

Any pics of the packaging?

hehehe... you are a happy man, i just found the pictures of the boxes  

and finally for today, there seems to be a third version

Oooh Deep Powder colorway!!!

These pics on Weibo makes it a lot harder to choose.
First I thought i'd prefer the orange colorway but now I think I prefer the Deep Powder variant or the blue one...

Hard to pick. But I will be doing custom gunmetal and chromes on the DIY brambles. I went with Frost Armstrong for now. That price limits me but wonder if this is the last of the line for WWR pockets?

Either blue or orange for me

updated with sizes in millimeters and inches.

What courier are the pocket brambles being delivered by?  Still waiting on mine.
