Super-exited seeing that BERTIE DROPSHIP in the newsletter page 12!!  Ash mentioned/described it at HK Venture dinner back in November 2009. And there was a plan to make one in 1/35 scale in 2014.

I feel the same but I fear my bankaccount says no.
I remember the discussion on the forum about the Bertie Dropship. Lot's of plans which sadly didn't pan out.
Like 1/6th WWR Classic Colorway Bertie Mk2's or the tons of Popbot and Adventure Kartel characters.

Anyway, here we are.
2 new WWR characters which feels familiar and foreign at the same time.
I checked out the 3 threeA WWR NOM Disciples and the difference compared to der Dritte is pretty stark.
Back in 2012 these were sold for US$125 (and US$190 as part of the 2013 3AA(V) pack) including shipping, before 3AA discount.
However production and shipping costs have rissen dramatically in the past 8 years since so I can't say I am surprised by the US$200+S/H price tag.

Stunning . . . Both of them. I admit the "cool guy" pants surprised me . . . And my heart both jumped and sank when I saw the jackets . . . They look incredible, but in Florida it will crack and peel within five months is my guess . . . Unless this faux leather has enjoyed some scientific breakthrough . . . Whatever the case they look phenomenal and $200 even without shipping makes it a no brainer, even on a tight budget. I'm thinking Tracker NOM Hinkon and his brown bomber jacket may be the one, but they both look so good I can't say for sure.

Hope there isn't a super secret suprising 3rd version that randomly shows up.

Like a Blanc variant...

Exactly...

These NOM's are gonna look good next to some 1/6 bots. Excited!

Nom in a track suit.  The square could be his boom box.

^ Ha yeah, "Breaker N0M"

I was also going to ask about the jacket because I just wonder how they hold over time as well. My V0N trenchcoat is doing fine but the pouches and what not are already flaky, as is the case with belts and pouches on other figs.

Ash's brush work and ink lines would show lanky N0Ms in action so the vibe on these came out phenomenal imo, sleek jeans included.
I love the light color helmet on Hinkon, how his gear stands out more with his brown jacket color scheme &the decals on Benzaito.
I freaking love Dritte's markings, the dark Ben box & the black on black roughness. Yarrgghh... Ash should know that the conflict we're all having means he nailed it.

The first Underverse release to actually get my attention. Both figures are truly stunning. For budgetary reasons, I should get only one. Having a really difficult time choosing between the two. I think I'm leaning toward Hinkon, but I wouldn't be surprised if I go back and forth right up until the sale. I don't even want to think about a third surprise version...

I dont mind the idea of a handful of true chases... but no 3rd surprise drop.... be gentle UV.

Anyone picked up an extra TRACKER/NOMAD NOM SPECIAL NEWSLETTER they would like to pass on to me?
The one night I took a break from twitter when it was announced I missed it.

Not a fan of chases, to be honest.

I am sorry to hear you missed out. They went pretty fast.
I Didn't know we were able to order multiples, thought they were one per person, but to be honest I didn't check if I could order more than one.
However, I am pretty sure most, if not all of it, will end up in an UV Explorer Annual.

Time is near...

These new figures look awesome!

Yeah, I like the streamlined gasmask and tank design. No nonsense. Something that would seem practical in the real world. And still looks cool.

No surprise drop confirmed on Instagram!
Now for the decision!

Bought Nomad, want the Tracker too but trying to be responsible...

Hyped on both of these Nom offerings.
Decisions and "responsibility" went right out the window

...along with my wallet  

Prioritised the Black One over the Snow.

Choice would have been a lot harder If Tracker had a different color shirt, maybe blueish like Marquis instead of black, and/or brown boots.
The fact this release has 2 jacket variants is already a huge differentiator, though.

Finding an argument to be irresponsible mostly depends on how long these will be available...

What's our purchase window for these?

These bad boys are up for pre-order right now at underverse.com! Let's discuss away

I'm partial to dystopian, winter weathered robots and characters so I went with Hinkon. Can't wait!

Couldn't resist, I bought both... I'm so weak... WWR is a crippling addiction and I will suffer eventually.

I know the feeling dude    There hasn't been a fresh injection since 3A's last release of the 1/6th DP Bramble. I'm always ready for more.
