3AA 2015 Discussion

The JJ jimmy hat seems 3ago scale. It wouldn't fit over my boiler zomb.

Reading that it could be an innuendo. The boiler zomb loves getting brain.

Just received my 3AA set! Ask me anything!

Wow it's like I've really and truly become a 3A'er now! Oh man the flap to open the box is like magnetic that's so cool! The box is so big too I had no idea it would be this huge block! This really is a beautiful box set! FOAMS! I GOTS THE FOAMS! BLACK FOAM THE LIFEBLOOD OF THE EARTH!

The card has my name on it, "vincejustvince" was too long and "justvince" would look stupid so I had to settle for "Vince"! It's just Vince, yo! Does my name suck? What did everyone else get on their card? I used to talk to this one guy that would call me "justvince" what a fucking moron most people have enough sense to read my online name and call me Vince. No seriously how can you lack that kind of reading comprehension?

I'm not sure if I can contain my OCD oh man! I remember exactly how to place everything back in the box except the lanyard! I think it's facing the wrong way but I'm sure it will be fine because I found some pictures of open 3AA 2015 boxes and the lanyards were all facing different directions. I just make sure the white tab on the plastic baggie is facing up and to the left. That way looks correct to me. I need to remember the red lenses guy goes on the left and the blue lenses guy goes on the right.

Which commander is which? I know one of them is named Post Fire and the other one is Thrice Naut but I don't know which ones! I think Ash is Post Fire and Kim is Thrice Naut. Are the masks removable? TELL ME ABOUT NOM WHY DO THEY WEAR THE MASK! If to pull that off you will die? I touched them but I didn't really pose them or mess around with them at all so I don't know!

Wow I didn't realize how big these 3AGO figures would be they're really nice especially the Bertie MK2! I was born in 1991 so did not experience the MEGO craze and have no sense of nostalgia for this type of figure. They just tower over 1/12 babbies haha! Who needs action portable? BRING ON 3AGO WAVE TWO! No seriously when can I buy Warbot? DO THE WARDANCE!

Does everyone like JJ McGee? Me? I don't really pay attention to soft toys all that much but if Ash wants to do a line of WWR plush I would support this 100%! In fact I can support everything about 3A 100% except vinyl rubber skinsuit bodies! I know most people think I'm the most emo guy around here but that's not true I genuinely do love everything about 3A except Lasstranaut and Iron Man! 3A really dropped the ball on those, but they're still better than every other company. 3A screws up like once or twice man those other toy companies make nothing but garbage and people eat it up anyway.

Overall I would say I am super happy with this set except the t-shirt is a size small and I'm too fat for it but that's my fault! How many times am I going to complain about being a fatass? EVERYTIME I GET THE CHANCE! Wait! If I get a medium size shirt from someone else and switch it out of my set... Does that invalidate my set? I like having complete sets, but some people here are crazy and split sets apart!

Just picked up my set from DHL in Atlanta, can't wait to get fucked up and root through it tonight

Received my 3AA pack today.
No Customs charges despite the fact it has been sent via EMS (so long Customs fee attractor theory)

Bertie looks great.
Larger than expected, meaning 1:6 will be pretty hefty guys.
NOM Commanders are very well executed making it a very balanced set.

JJ McGee and his best friend are plain silly.
Awesome.

For Vince

Anyone else get their pack missing the Bertie? I did.....

in my head vince sounds like tweek on south park. love ya vince!

Oh man, missing the centerpiece?
that's a new low for 3A

What about its back canister and gatling?

That's crazy. So there is a cut out in the foam, but no figure?

That's a first- at least that I can remember...

I remember last year some thought they were missing stuff, but the items were on the 2nd layer of packaging...

2 of my friends got their 3aa yesterday here in Victoria. Said they got texts from DHL, the both had to pay DHL $23 on delivery.

I got no txt yet.

Yup!  First time anything like this has happened in 5 years.  

ughhhh yeah must be no QC at all anymore.

got mine today, all is well.

Yikes. I like how they managed to pack the bullets...

Does anyone elses bertie have a dent in the chest? Does anyone know if the head/body sections turn? I think it might be a solid piece and I don't wanna break him!



I'm extremely paranoid and suffering from anxiety! I'm not sure which end of the bullet belt is inserted where but I've tried it both ways just to see and some of the paint on the plugs scraped off so they could fit!

I'm a ruiner! I destroy everything I touch! Is it time to stop collecting?

Thats the most inexcusable crap I've ever seen from this company. I'd be pissed.

That's odd.
Was your package shrink-wrapped when it arrived, Arroneous?

Yeah but they managed to get JJ in there.....

Arroneous, your 3AA pack almost look like it was jacked by customs...

WOW, that sucks, but if he got jacked why would they leave the tank?

Easy oversight:
Robot - Check
Weapon - Check
Ammo - Check
Inhaler - fuck it

0043 reporting for duty.

Opened up my pack. All figs in place and card is correct. Wrong sized shirt though. Asked for Small, got an XS. It's a really nice shirt too. Not thick and stiff like the other years.

Just checked mine, all that was suppose to be there is there.
I like the print but it seems to be printed to light. The member card has the same image and it looks more saturated in color.
The two NOMS are my first 3AGO fig in that scale, pretty nice but not sure if I want to keep them.
Bertie is wicked cool, that's a keeper.

I personally hate thin t-shirt material. I like the beefy hanes type tees. The thin shirts don't last long.

Im also on the +1 on the shirt being perfect. The thicker material feels stuffy to me.

The figs are awesome, 3AGO is a pretty cool scale, they are big enough that the clothing is not stiff. I think i'm sticking to the 1:6th scale though. they are cool but for me they are missing a little extra oomph.

That JJ though, holy crap!! it's a lot bigger than i thought it was gonna be. I think that's gonna stay in the box
