Re: Bertie MK2
Looking good, can't wait to get mine in hand. However I do think the original looks better but this is the closest I'll ever get so deliver him now! And his other two friends.

Re: Bertie MK2
Thanks for the pics!
Skipper: By "original" do you mean the pre-3A Bertie or the WWRp MK2 version?
And by what criterion do you define "better" by? Peg legs and proportions, vs revised proportions of Mk2? Something else?
My own take:
Having owned the pre-3A DD and Desert Rat, IMO the Desert Rat was the much better looking of the two from a paint ap perspective. And neither held any kind of a candle the the aps on the Mk2 WWRp versions, which are sublime. Far more realistic. The pre-3A versions are more collector vinyl looking, where the 3A paint aps on the WWRp added a level of decay and realism (like an AW painting made manifest) that the Pre-3A versions lacked. Side by side I think it's a very distinct difference. I like the old guys for their history, and I still dig the peg legs best, but I appreciate not having to have stands for my big bots, which the feet give.

Re: Bertie MK2
DarkChurch (IG name) has some shots on Instagram standing next to the pre-3A peg leg Bertie.
By all accounts I've seen so far, he's looking stellar in hand. Great to know that those three heads made it into the first release. My opinion from what I've seen, machete too small & classic Bertie pistol way too small. Was very much hoping for those oversized proportions to translate. Something I should probably wait to have in hand to speak on but ya know...9mos plus and all...

Re: Bertie MK2
Essefinga I meant the pre 3a DD I prefer the full matt look but that's not a criticism as such, more of a personal preference. Don't get me wrong, I am very looking forward to what looks like one of the best bots. I have the Desert Rat and he is one of my all time favourites and I'm hoping these will be too. So far I've got the first three ordered so keep em coming.
Oh and I also prefer the feet rather than the peg legs.

Re: Bertie MK2
I kind of agree on the matte finish, though I guess I wasn't really wed to it. And I'm definitely with Wooly on the pistol size, as I too loved the old hand cannons. I'm pretty sure a few of us were rooting for the bigger guns to happen. We shall see.
Just wondered where you were coming from since "better" is so subjective and vague.

Re: Bertie MK2
I think bertie's pistol smaller on purpose, my thought because 2nd DD bertie only equipped with 2 pistols, 1 machete, and 3 sev.heads but price same with the 1st DD, sounds not fair, because 1st DD equipped with gatling gun.
so I believe DD 2 bertie will be far bigger, and of course more special than this 1st DD pistol.

Ok, I get what you're saying counterfeit. Because the all pistol load is given to only one of the Deeds offered so far, so 3A/Ash will highlight that by going with a bigger more stylistic design for the bots that only carry the pistols as their primary weapons.... I would love to believe that.
He sure does look gritty and well done with nice paints. The decals look excellent. Haven't seen anyone confirm whether they were all ABS or vinyl yet. From the looks of the clean lines... looks to be ABS.

Re: Bertie MK2
Looking goood. I'll probably get lynched for this, but I've never liked the paint job on the pegleg DD. Love Desert Rat and Warbot, though.

No Denying the paint app is ... well lacks any sophistication ... I was always tempted to 're apply the paint scheme ..never have and no need with the new deed

Re: Bertie MK2
In fact I was hoping they do the new Berties with the rust that came with peg leg Bertie. Cos it take skill to do rusting effect on vinyl and make the bot more metal in appearance

The only thing I don't get is the oil stain tears on the severed heads- could have skipped that detail IMO...

Does take skill .. however the peg leg Rust Effect is not "skilled' .. looks better in the pic than the actual bot ..
