by 3a_boltman Tue Dec 12, 2017 12:30 pm

I think zim TK uses this body if not mistaken

by deru_here Tue Dec 12, 2017 12:55 pm

I need to see a side by side comparison for this

Year 10, almost there.

Hugely off topic, but I do wonder what releases we'll see between now and January 15th.

by gregory Wed Dec 13, 2017 3:12 pm

In general there's going to be less focus on licensed lines and a refocusing on the OG lines. Characters from WWR, Popbot, AK, and WOIP are the majority of the releases mapped out for 2018

3AA Members will receive a card. The Bambaland Passport business will be explained with all the details very soon

Would be nice to see some major new WWR / AK / Popbot releases, especially in Adventure Kartel.
Which have had 1 regular release in the past 2 years.

Damn Gregory, less on licences, more on OG like WWR! Looks like I'm back in! Any word on Warbot? That could also be a deciding factor if I have to get that AND 3aa.

by Cthulhu Wed Dec 13, 2017 10:15 pm

Think it's year 6 for me, I certainly don't buy as much 3a as I did when I first joined/discoverered 3a. However I always re-up because you never know what cool thing is in the pipeline and the discount is noice!

Shit...I did not realize it's been 10 years. That's nuts...makes me feel old. I'm no. 51 and will be getting my 10th membership card.

I'm having trouble remembering...were there just 100 slots the first time around? Would be curious how many of the original 100 will be making it a nice round 10 years.

Les Mort is a cool way to do it! Looking forward to it.

Yes, that was Ashley's original plan, back when the forum started in November 2008.
Around November 21st it let to heated discussions, (if my PM archive is correct)

Later it was changed in 24 hours, free for all, one per Bambaland account.
Eventually about 250 peeps signed up.

Ah, ok. I don't recall, but that's good to know!

by Oneluckyboy Thu Dec 14, 2017 9:40 am

I miss that old Outpost. It was the highlight of my day to log in and read what was going on and see Ash's comments on stuff.

by EdGein Thu Dec 14, 2017 9:44 am

Haha, that header does bring back memories Smile

by Joshimus Thu Dec 14, 2017 12:44 pm

I'd like to see more with Blind Cowboy storyline for figures. I'm hitting on year 6. Don't know much about Mort but the discounts sure help this Canadian buy stuff. What's happening with the Transformers license? Is there still hope for an AoE or TLK Dinomode Grimlock?

by gregory Fri Dec 15, 2017 6:55 am

TLK Megatron is coming. There are more TF plans scheduled, but nothing I can go into specifically at the moment

by BPP Fri Dec 15, 2017 8:47 am

Am super up for a return to OG stuff. I lap up the 2000ad as works of art and Shaloin Cowboy is just something no other company would have the balls to do but the mainstream licenses - totally diminished my 3A experience - 2017 seemed endless TF while all I wanted was more 3AGO, Popbot, squares... that’s where the real creativity lies - lassie, dead gangsta, low blow... all just crazy stuff that’s too good to resist (or to curse when you don’t have funds)

Roll on 3AA 2018..

by <{OjO}> Fri Dec 15, 2017 9:33 am

Finally, a return to OG lines in 2018! Let's hope 3A has found its soul again........\(-_-)/

by rancorkill Fri Dec 15, 2017 11:25 am

So glad to hear 3A will be returning to their OG lines. Here's hoping we see some AK figures like:
Mega Zomb, Fucking Fuckers 4 pack, The Spank and maybe even King Size or Byron and the Hostess. Of course, a new JC is a must!

by <{OjO}> Sun Dec 17, 2017 9:51 am

I hope Future Mort isn't just going to be reusing the Jokers suit and shoes! That would be disappointing..

by gregory Sun Dec 17, 2017 10:09 am

Nope, the Joker suit would be massive on the regular 1/6th body. Joker is huge and uses the same robotic body as Batman/Showa Troopers

Shoes and hands are all new sculpts

by <{OjO}> Sun Dec 17, 2017 10:13 am

That's great to hear Gregory! Look forward to his reveal.

Bambaland Passport/3AA Membership details on the blog.

Essentially the 3AA Membership is your passport to Bambaland. OG releases will be 3AA Exclusive and all Bambaland variants will be exclusive to Bambaland.

Licensed Lines and Book sales will be open to the public.

There will be some retail variants and releases outside of licensed lines. Retail releases will be exclusive to retailers.

Quoting here for good measure:

Production Blog wrote:Change is afoot for 2018 as 3AA Members will not only receive a killer membership pack, discount, membership card, and the much anticipated 1/6th Scale Future Mort 13 – members will now become Bambaland Passport holders gaining exclusive access to Bambaland itself!

2018 will see a clear refocusing of OG lines and characters, along with the debut of several new series created by Ashley Wood. These releases will be offered only in the 3AA Members area of Bambaland and not offered anywhere else!

Licensed lines will continue on in their own separate capacity. We are reducing the amount of licensed series and releases in order to focus on the original worlds we've created. Licensed series pre-sales will be open to the public, but only 3AA members will be able to receive a discount on their orders.

More details coming soon!
