Tomorrow Kings General discussion

They probably got scared to show it because its pretty "meh" for something people have been wanting and hyping for like 5 years and are now going to postpone it in hopes to somehow make it more epic, thus the most recent post about a push back on the blog....lol. I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't even show up in June to be honest..as a long time fan I can't help but be pretty cynical with what Ash says and keep seeing the cycle repeating itself.

Nope, just need more time to get better photos and better promo together for Archer. Gives people more time to get money too. 2nd week of June

2nd week of June? Yay, thanks for the info.

Okay, thanks for the forecast. delays are always welcome when quality is the focus. in the case of archer tk, i hope that translates to a unique new sculpt and no floppy body.
see you the second week of june.

Ummm.

Uhhhh.

That sales update post on the blog is hilarious..

Please people, add a bit more to the discussion than just some sound effects.

If you like it (or not) just leave a real comment.
It can even be shorter than 5 keystrokes.

However, just "Meh", will get you in dangerously slippery isuck territory.
Probably I'll just delete such kind of posts so other forum members don't have to plough through pages of gloomy emptiness.

Back on topic:
I noticed a bit late the instabuy Archer TK is pushed back a couple of weeks.
Would have been great to be able to finally order it.
It is even nicer to do so with decent pics. So that's a good reason. besides budget... hmmm, Ultron looks soon tempting...
Archer has been announced with the start of TKlub, back in 2013, so it would have been fun if it was the last TKlub release towards the classic TQ 1/6th figure.
Wonder if TKlub continues after Ninja TQ...


Personally, I am pretty happy threeA spreads out their releases a bit.
Had to skip too many cool releases already due to the high Dollar and was getting pretty desperate because of all the releases announced for June.

gar, I apologize to you and/or anyone else who has been offended by the ummm. Didn't intend to 'isuck'.

In my defense:

Forums are kind of an odd stop/start conversation, no?

And sometimes in a conversation, when dumbfounded, a loss of words can occur. So in keeping with that sentiment along came an ummm. It was an interjection, which by it's nature, expressed (in jest - I guess that was missed) my loss for words at the ongoing delay of this particular TK.  

I'll try to be wordier in any future posts.

What if you're a man of few words? I've been known to be that in real life.

Anyways, I'm looking forward to the Lookbook that is being set up for this Archer.

will this release qualify for a lookbook preview? I think it deserves one because its been anticipated and in the making for a while. I want the BABY too!

I thought someone already mentioned one was being made or something or other.

Will there be 3AA version? Dark shadow version or the like? Was the statement "all major releases will see a 3AA version" only for 2014, or for the rest of time?

I think Ash goes by the willy-nillyness of his feeling at the moment he needs to make a decision.  If that makes any sense.

Makes total sense.
And of course there are obviously many day to day business happenings that cause these unforeseen shifts and changes. That's how things go. But as a long time 3A customer I'm feeling a lot more disillusioned than excited these days (years?). But it's all just plastic so... Ya' know.

Re Gar, to avoid perception I'm a total d*** on "uhhh" word response, my apology. Replied in jest.
Nice the Last Archer is pushed back but not waaayy back. This king has been spoken about since '13. Nice if the QC is consistent, no more flip flop body, "retooled" and sturdy like my Obsidian. But where's the baby, baby?

the baby?
I have no idea.
I assume there will be one.
Maybe on his back.
Or under his cape.
In a bag, I dunno.

From an old Sunday Q+A (number 05, October 20, 2013):
Q: [snip] And we still have the fire burning for Archer TK (any info would be appreciated as well)!
A: [another snip] etc...  Archer TK and baby TK is in the works

Thanks for the info Gar.

Sorry guys, the baby is a 3AA exclusive. But if you order within the next 60 minutes, you'll also receive a limited GID Ghost Baby and a bag of 20 DIY babies for only $19.99! (+shipping and handling)

I'd buy that for a dollar!

Is there a rhyme or reason to the delays? What I mean is, unless the items for sale are pre-made, why a delay? The teaser pic shows a studio type photo. If that is final, then go ahead and make it for sale. We all get that it takes 3 months to 13 months for actual shipment. It can also give people time to save if it is for sale longer.

I would also appreciate it if 3A realized they need to scale back all the conventions. I know they are looking for exposure but if the company cannot handle the existing orders and demand how is more better?

The baby looks ok in the art. But a tangible GID baby would definitely freak me out. A bag of tiny babies would shot me off the roof. Tele tubbies....Joke aside, shall wait for the final product revelation. Hope this is not the last as in the really last TK from 3A. Coz I am still hopeful for at least Yama (Naga) Last Stand.

I have a feeling the "Last TK" is just a moniker for the story and not an actual end to the line of figures.

Go figure that there would be another figure delay....

I mean you can't really get enough goodsmile exclusives, right?


We have already waited over half a decade for this figure, so what's a few more months or years?

It's obviously not the last TK as in the last that will ever be made.  This has been discussed many a time.  I'm sure bubblegumking can tell you.   Unless God forbid 3A dies off or something like Ash saying Fuck It!  I'm tired of making TKs.  But in this case Devours will have a conniption and go all off on him.  (Where is Devours by the way.  Just wondering.)   And then he'll say Okay, just for you Devours I'll keep making them.  And all the TK lovers will live happily ever after.  The end.
