Speaking about shipping and figures mentioned above, here is what everyone wants to see – photos in hand! Before I'll do that, I want to say that I added shipping markers to the map: https://www.zeemaps.com/map?group=210110 , map project is becoming three years old in January and if this month it will not be getting enough feedback, I'll just cull it down and leave behind, in the end why to drag something from 2010 , if it's not that needed anymore?

So to photos, here is beautiful AP Shadow & Light Oyabun 2pack, photographed by Scott Bellwood

January - 2013 SYcnqtJanuary - 2013 1zGTut

Since people keep asking, no, AP Oyabuns aren't standing on Slicer TK packaging (which haven't shipped yet), it's just back part of the box. Did you notice 1000 Bamba points stamp? I wonder when we will hear more about that))

Brent Ashe, who officially joined team ThreeA last year is talking about ThreeA imprint: Goya
"Regarding the format and size - the Goya mags should end up having a very similar feel to the Apertore mag from 2011 that featured the photo/artwork of Expathos. It was 12 x 12 format as well. Personally I loved how Apertore turned out (overall format, print quality, look+feel etc) - so I know the Goya mags are going to end up really nice. I think you guys are going to like these!
Work is just finishing up on Kent's and John Cuneo's and as Sail mentioned his is ready to go as well. Starting on Ash's soon too... stay tuned!"

If you don't remember, here is Goya imprint layout for 2013: Kent Williams, John Cuneo, Sail and Ashley Wood (first issue should be offered this month):

Looks like BBICN is offering Popbot Munich NTQ , Popbot TK KDO and AK Hard Nipple War 3pack. At the moment it seems that there is an open pre-order for retailers only, and they will be selling it to the customers. If you are interested, please contact BBICN for more information, since it’s their exclusive.

I don't know the entire picture, but wanted to give you a heads-up.

Sorry for being a little slow in the new year, I badly damaged my back few days ago and can hardly sit , so I'm mostly on painkillers and in bed. Nice start of 2013, hope New Year is shaping up much better for you.

Another thing, I need to contact authors of four photos bellow, if you know the author or you recognize your photo, please send me an email to gimbat @ threeaonline.com or personal message via this board, you can contact me via Facebook or twitter as well.

As you all know 3AA 2013 sign-up is happening on January 15th, 9:00AM HK time. I talked with Ashley and he told me that information should be available early next week and shouldn't be very different from previous years.

We already seen plenty of photos showing ThreeA x BBICN display at ACG in all it's beauty, but I always think that when it comes to toys and beautiful setups - the more the merrier. You can find the entire gallery, with photos by ThreeA forum member atharich here on imgur: https://imgur.com/a/c0XYw#0

07.01

Ashley Wood sharing details about 3AA 2013 enrollment:
"Next Tuesday is the 5th recruitment for 3AA, starting at 9-00am and continuing for 24 you will be able to join the 3AA LEGION. ONLY AT BAMBALAND!
And remember 5 year vets, you will receive a special T-shirt and NOM P.R.E.Y BOX as well when signing up for the 5th year! mmm what else, oh yea, the NOM Blanc Hunter you snag with this set is the last version of this type of NOM to be released, all new NOM designs for 2013!
The price for this years set is $190, for that you get the set and 15% discount at Bambaland and Gallery ThreeA for 12 months.."


I noticed that there is a lot of confusion about 3AA 2013 package and what comes with it, so let's summarize everything we know about it.

Sales date and place: January 15th, 9:00AM HK time at www.bambalandstore.com
Price: 190USD
What is included: beautifully designed packaging by Brent Ashe, BLANC HUNTER NOM 1/6th figure, 3AA NOM T-shirt with bullet container, signed Blanc Hunter print, membership card and 15% discount on everything at Bambalandstore and Gallery ThreeA stores for 12 months
On top of that: 5th year 3AA members will receive extra t-shirt and NOM prey box

MGS REX shipping update

I mentioned back in December, that we plan to send all MGS REX orders (Bambalandstore and remaining retail batches) before Chinese New Year (first week of February 2013). Few hours ago, I received final confirmation that all MGS REX Bambalandstore orders are starting to roll out.
Batch of Bambalandstore REX order to United States customers is already on the way (sent by boat) and other batches are starting shipping out next week.
If you need tracking number of your REX, please send an email with your order number to cs@threeaonline.com next week and once it enters the shipping system, they will get back to you.
Thank you so much for your patience during the extra REX wait and sorry if it sucked some fun of your upcoming REX experience. Extra wait issue aside – I think it’s one awesome 1:48th REX model and I was glued to REX display at Re-Venture and loved REX photos in all the reviews. It’s the most complicated & detailed figure of such scale, we ever produced yet (wait when RAY comes though) and we wanted to make it flawless and gave it a lot of extra love, care and attention. Huge thanks to KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS and all Metal Gear Solid fans for the support!

Recap of two REX reviews, if you still haven’t seen the beast in action:
MGS REX retail version detailed review by Toy-People (in Chinese), including two videos of working rail gun and 360 degree view of this massive beast in standing and sitting position.
In-depth review of MGS REX retail version (in English) by Rad Toy Review, featuring lots & lots of beautiful photos.

Ashley Wood announcing his decision to lower 3AA 2013 membership price:
"You know, everything seems to cost more these days, shit seems harder, people are doing it pretty tough. Now I cant change that, man I wish I could, but as a small token, and I know it aint much, but I have decided to make the 2013 the same price as 2012. So it will be 180usd. I hope somewhere that makes small difference. Back to lickign my arm in a dark corner…"

So here is the correction and 3AA 2013 summary:

Sales date and place: January 15th, 9:00AM HK time at www.bambalandstore.com
Price: 180USD
What is included: beautifully designed packaging by Brent Ashe, BLANC HUNTER NOM 1/6th figure, 3AA NOM T-shirt with bullet container, signed Blanc Hunter print, membership card and 15% discount on everything at Bambalandstore and Gallery ThreeA stores for 12 months
On top of that: 5th year 3AA members will receive extra t-shirt and NOM prey box

If you use Facebook, you can join the 3AA event at our our official 3AVOX Facebook page, surely you can ask there questions and share your thoughts about 3AA.

Thailand Toy Expo starts tomorrow (January 10th) at Central World, Bangkok and additional queuing rules were posted at their Facebook page and in the event dedicated thread on our forum.

ThreeA world section will be located on second floor of the complex – Eden 2 (Sky walk from Siam Paragon to Central World). Unfortunately, I’m not going to the event, but I hope to share with you many photos of our display there, during next couple of days. For now, here is massive JEA Bambaboss , photographed by Alu Card.

January - 2013 6gYGWt

If you are going to the event and want to share photos with our community, please share them here on the forum; send them to me via gimbat @ threeaonline .com email; or via Facebook or twitter. Will be happy to put them up!

I noticed that there is some confusion on the forum about ThreeA HALO figures and customers asking for updates. HALO figures approximate shipping time during the pre-order was December 2012. At this moment, I don't have anything to report about production process, I contact HK several times per week, asking about shipping plans and on how is the shipping going , once I hear something about Halo - I'll update ThreeA blog, this column and related thread immediately. We always reserve the right to work more on the figures to make them perfect and up to the standards. ThreeA is almost five years old (turning five in June) and in all years of our existence, we never not shipped a toy ; sometimes it takes us longer than we planned - but we always deliver. If you have any question about HALO or other pending orders, please don't hesitate to contact cs@threeaonline.com , or contact any of our forum moderators or engage with 3Asupport on twitter or 3AVOX on Facebook

I already posted earlier that first Shadow and Light Oyabun set went for 91000 thb, in last two days - two more auctions happened.

Here are details from Patarin Leelayoova about charity auctions at Thailand Toy Expo:

Shadow and Light Oyabun second set went for 100.000 thb and there is third and last one scheduled for tomorrow (January 13th 18.00-19.00)

On January 11th, WWR Rothchild New Dawn Fades edition went for 9000 thb. So, so far approximately 200.000 thb were raised, which is around 6600USD, all raised money goes to disabled children charity foundation. Hopefully we will reach 300.000 thb / 10.000USD mark tomorrow!

Here are two photos by Joey Thunyaluckpak showing auction for Shadow and Light Oyabun 2pack and Kim Fung Wong signing the pack to the auction winner. And one photo done by Alu Card , showing Patarin Leelayoova accepting Rothchild New Dawn Fades edition.

Yesterday was last day at Thailand Toy Expo, I participated in few conventions and know how it’s hard, when you have to say “bye” to all your new friends, pack your things and leave…especially after feeling your belonging to that group of people and finding brothers & sisters who understand and share your passions.

Huge thank you to everyone who came to check out our section, showed their support and participated in the charity auctions, hope you guys had plenty of fun and got what you wanted. And of course thanks to JP Toys for organizing this toy madness!

Charity auctions update, last Shadow and Light Oyabun set went for around 45.000 thb, which means that we raised approximately 245.000 thb (8100USD) for disabled children charity.

Based on what I read Three Thai Legion is really awesome group of people, thank you guys for being awesome and sharing your photos of the event with me! Here are few photos by Kanaruck Keaokanlaya and Tome Worapivut.

Ashley Wood is back to posting news on the forum, so I'm returning to posting his quotes in this column as well. But a little story first, I started doing my column in December 2008 and you can still see an awful looking (because of imageshack image hosting) news archive here. Basically after ThreeA forum was created in the middle of November 2008, Ashley Wood was daily on the board, talking with fans about figures, ThreeA future, WWR and etc, board been moving extremely fast, it was really hard to follow (especially with old board's engine) and I wanted to create one news place, where person could go and catch up on latest news and get the essence of craziness we had going on, it remained like that until 2011. In 2011 and in 2012 Ashley Wood was extremely busy for the forum and tried different approach, I (and I'm sure many others) was constantly reminding Ash how we all miss him and he promised to come back , once all art shows will be done and he will have more time and looks like it's finally happening.

About what's next? - posting Ashley Wood Collection: 1:1 severed feet
"I think ill sell this weekend, i will try"

Ashley might be referring there to any of these feet, teased in Christmas VOX

January - 2013 RhpGbtJanuary - 2013 SZq2xtJanuary - 2013 KxrOzt

More WWRp Dropcloths are coming:
"im going to do a 4 pack of EURO DROPPIES soon
martian hunters!"


Ashley started the thread, where you ask him a question regarding his art or toys, but there is an important notice: Ask me about toys or stories, if you have an issue with a toy contact 3A direct, i have no access to info!

So that thread isn't for reporting problems with figures and other stuff, for that there is cs@threeaonline.com , moderators on the forum or support and moderator assistance section.

Here is an opening post from "Ask" thread: "Please ask away if you have any questions regarding stories or toys etc. , but be a dick and ill have you nixed, this is my house and I expect manners and a good spirit!"

Answering about Extreme Finale art book and a chance to see WWR MK2 Bertie in 1/6th scale:
"re extreme finale, i think thats this month, but im not publishing it , IDW are, they woul dbe the best bet to ask. I want to see it too!!!

Re MK2 Bertie, yea, but its different, similar but i wanted to do something different, upgrade him etc, arms, feet are different etc. I kinda imagine them as customized MK2, upgraded and tweaked.


On difference between de Plumes and NOM Disciples:
"There is a difference, the Plumes were moderate, the disciples are extremists"

Since Disney now owns Star Wars, you think the 1/12 SW figures could see the light of day?

Ashley is referring to this gallery

Whether there will be any 3A mono-shows in 2013 and why there is no show in Australia, and where next ThreeA show might be:
"no Venture this year im told, the plan is one every two years, realy make them special, and not in Hong Kong or China, probably USA i would think

First photos of Bambalandstore REX in hand by and [url=http://www.threeaonline.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1355]NomadicSoul

And good news for everyone, who is still waiting - all MGS Bambalandstore REX left Hong Kong, so please feel free to contact cs@threeaonline.com for the tracking number. Most of the retailers should have retail REX soon as well and I recommend you to contact your retailer and ask for progress, as they should have REX coming as well.

AK Charkin pre-mades and pre-order comparison photos and a little story, why there are two versions in the first place.

Here is original post from ThreeA blog few days prior to the sale, by Ashley Wood:
"It seems many want a Charkin, Now we cant change the limited amount pre-made that will ship before Halloween, but when the pre-mades sell out we will offer another batch that will ship in December. They will have different boxes and maybe sumin else, who knows ! "
http://www.threeaonline.com/blog/?p=3541 - direct link to that post

So pre-made Charkins were gone within less than five minutes and pre-order Charkin was introduced. Pre-order version, has different box, comes with one side poster (no poster for premade ones) and different color accents on his t-shirt. Here is a photo by Bincho1977[i] and by [i]黃耀南 (pre-made one), where you can clearly see how boxes are different and another photo by EmMon

Many more HALO figures to go, and they are getting freaky, the Master Chief is up soon, incredible stuff in the art of toy making.

Interesting WWR Universe question:
The Gaistaz are my favorite faction in WWR, but I've always wondered what their story was? How can they render themselves invisible and why do the Ghosthunters want to stop them?
"Re Gaistaz, they are a spooky group of Occultine followers and can do many cool things. Ghost hunters want to keep a level field and keep a balance of war."

Will we ever see Jungler Bertie?
"yes to jungler Bertie"
and:
"yes to mini jungler droppy"

"2d animation contest it is then, bring it on guys, 3A theme. no other rules. you guys can set the deadline. go start a 2danicontest thread."

And here is the link to the contest thread. I am proposing 10 weeks deadline, should be enough - unless majority wants to do it longer, theme - 3A theme, as Ash mentioned.

Ashley about MAXX:
"i only make real MAXX by Sam Keith, thats the one I want ! thats Sam's thing, but the option is always there !"

On infamous WWR Meat is Murder set and release it at Chinese New Year , as I am reading it:
"Gonna Make the MEat is Murder set with a JEA Marine, A CNY sale, biggest set ever!"

Another cool figure coming to us:
"Im gonna make a Non Warhol figure....."

Stating that new WWR Meat is Murder set will be different from what we saw earlier:

January - 2013 F57u8t

"MIM set will different from what you see, they will sport MIM insignia's and other details will be different."

But it will keep JEA aesthetic:
[color=green]"of course they will have it, infact the they will retain the look of the photo, but with new details. I love that photo, but as i dont gloat and jerk off over my shit and keep a i tight ship, i kinda forgot about it, luckily you guys reminded me and now that shits gonna happen."/color]

January - 2013 SZq2xtJanuary - 2013 KxrOztJanuary - 2013 RhpGbtJanuary - 2013 4zFf8Abt

Love the description from the store:

January - 2013 Kl3HFkatJanuary - 2013 JSbqR44tJanuary - 2013 LSrZWKDt

GID foot popped up during first minutes of the sale and went down, so it's a surprise drop...I'm sure there will be some more popping up. As for now, GID severed foot seems to be 3AA surprise, so it's still surprise release, but only 3AA members can buy it.

To new 3AA 2013 members: if your privileges aren't working, logging out and logging in to the Bambalandstore helps in most of the cases.

21.01

Ashley Wood collection: Orange GID foot made a surprise appearance at the store:

January - 2013 PwC7a98t

Ashley continues to answer on questions and chat with our boardies, here is he speaking about requirements for Pro-E position at ThreeA:
"3D sculpting ala maya, but in pro E, if someone can say sculpt a bertie in pro e, with all the parts for articulation and production , then we want to know them !"

Speaking about ghosts:
"i dont think has ever been a 100% baller image of a ghost, i also dont believe that ghosts are blurry, spectral etc, nor shoul dthey just appear at night, bad weather etc. I have been in homes, middle summer, midday with all windows open that have made me feel uneasy."
"your right JDM, all this paranormal hunting shit is BS, none of the science has a baseline and cannot be substantiated, EVP my ass!
Its hard to say, what the fuck is up with some areas, im also not a believer in gjosts haunt fucked places or where they died in a shit way or whatnot, or freeways would be cluttered with ghosts, hospitals and many homes etc. I spend much time thinking about this!


In 2012 it was mentioned that Ashley would love to make some spaceships , here is a confirmation that plan isn't dead:
"I want those ships too ill, this years im dropping some, well if people want them too that is"

Quote from before on making Three x VALVe Team Fortress 2 comic figures:
"we have epic figures for TF2 comic, the Robot Heavy is first"

Few days ago, Ashley was asked whether he has plans to offer figures which were spotted on photos, but for some reason didn't make it to Bambalandstore, like WWRp Deep Powder MK3 Mode B Bertie MK3, Dutch Merc Bertie MK3 and WWRp NW&DW MK2 Squares. Ashley said that he will try to offer them as soon, as possible and they went up while Severed Foot was on sale, around 9:00AM HK time, on January 21st. Our boadie soulburn3d came up with the list of WWR/WWRp figures, which were shown, but didn't make it to the sale:

January - 2013 EGMqct

By mistake WWR MK2 DW&NW Squares were put up and sale was killed, if you bought one during short moment, while they were up - you will get a refund:
Ashley about this: Sorry about that chaps, it should have been WWRp and not WWR, we shall re-configure and offer again soon ! Everyone will be refunded asap! RUNS OFF

Then MK3 Berties went up (and still remain up as for now):

January - 2013 ZbZq3bWtJanuary - 2013 StnAvDgt

and WWRp MK2 NW&DW Squares followed:

January - 2013 KnnQoIjt

Answering whether WWRp MK3 Berties will be up for 24 hours or not:
"not 24 hours. just gonna nix em when we have enough to cover the production, all the WFTS sale items will be like this."

On people's positive reaction for WWRp Berties:
"im happy you guys still dig the robots like me."

Answering on what other intellectual properties & figures ThreeA would like to produce:
"anything either I or Kim likes, thats it pretty much, Im mainly focused on my stuff, which is taxing enough, but I couldnt not do Microman etc and the like. Not looking to do much more license stuff, we have enough for now!"

On whether WWRp Big Red Heavy Bramble is a possibility:
"if i can find the red bramble ill sell it, I dunno where it is, ill keep looking !"

On WWRp MK1 Squares 10pack
January - 2013 LNTbSNat

"the10 pack would be fun though, maybe later "

It's a bit more complicated with MK1 Squares, as we don't do releases and some of the Squares on that pic, were offered with WWRp MK2 Berties 7pack back in end of 2009 and in first half of 2010 with Berties MK2 singles for retailers. Our forum member Zach pointed it out as well and Ashley said:
"i know Zach thats what I was looking into, but thanks for clearing it up"
"dude, i love the help. you guys actually have helpe much over the years for info. always appreciated Zach and all the other legion who kick in with the info and such."


About having figures / something up at Bambalandstore at all times:
"I would love to have toys in the store 100% of the time, i have spoken with Kim on this, will keep pushing for it !"

Will we see any big bots today? and WWR Harold has a date:
"no big bots , harold this monthm near the end. Thats going to be a good day !"

Commenting about this lovely Popbot bothead, which never saw the light:

January - 2013 H2GI9C7t

"orange head was a sample, never to used i guess. i like it too!"

Answering, whether it's possible to see Chocolate Bamba from our old forum header at the store:

January - 2013 ZqMbKHat

"the choc bamba was actually a desert Bamba, just really dark etc
no one wants the ol bamba anymore, except well me !"


Whether we have plans to offer more WWR Harold colorways, like Medic and such:
"if the harold does well we will offer more! I hope so"

On SDCC 2013 (July 17 - July 20) plans:
"re SDCC, we will try and get more space etc, or try somethign different, dotn want to do the same thing every year etc"

WWR Meat is Murder super massive set has a date!
"as a heads up, im looking to OFFER the MIM set on feb8th as the CNY special set. I think it will be our biggest set ever !"

Here is the only image for now, but as you remember Ashley mentioned that MIM will have new decals to make it even more special:

January - 2013 F57u8t

Update made at 20:30 HK time
3AA 24 hours window for buying Severed Foot ends in 30 minutes and then they MIGHT be pulled from the store. If sale indeed ends in 30 minutes from now, I hope that everyone got what he/she wanted.

Ashley about AK Mumbs
"i think so, or blind box like the original zomb

On putting We are catalog for sale today:
"WE ARE 3A toy catalog thingy in bamba today"
it will go up later, benny will do it. I have no real idea"


About providing some We are pages photos:
"im sure there are many images of the WE ARE book online right, i cant even find my single battered copy to take shots of it."

Answering whether 60" Tomorrow King is a possibility:
"we would need 200 min to cover the costs, as we have to use a fabricaton factory for it. "

On future ThreeA x MaK releases - whether Ashley knows what's coming next:
"i do but its a way off and not my place to say!"

Answering whether we can have some 2000AD Hammerstein photos now:
"when they are approved to show, not my IP"

What figure are you looking for the most in 2013?
"all of them gimb, the amount of time I spend on each of my toys requires me to love them all. If not i couldn't do this anymore

And Ashley shared these WWRp Grunts - EMGY and Medic photos on the forum:

January - 2013 Crq1E0stJanuary - 2013 0zOLlcOt

1/12th scale 2000D Mongrol update: Unfortunately I am bringing some not so fun news, as little Mongrols are taking a longer time at the Hatchery and I'll make another update after Chinese New Year / February 14th.

Popbot TK KDO ACG BBICN exclusive review by S.Ryoma:

January - 2013 LE8Tzjmm
clickable

Brent Ashe about WE ARE - 3A toys softcover catalog essence:
Thanks to everyone who's been picking up WE ARE so far. It's like a big 12 x 12 120 page spiritual successor to the 10 x 10 catalogs that came with the 1/6th Caesar's.
We're really happy with how it turned out. Lots of great pics along with clean, minimal typography. A book that you could show anyone that's never seen 3A before and get them instantly hooked.


Time for more questions & answers from Ashley Wood!

On women at TK KLUB
"whats this about no woman in the TK Klub"
"one other thing, TK Klub has TQ's as well, i think i mislead some peeps, but there you go!"


On preparing WWR Harold sale:
"one last thing, ill get all the harold info over next week, with some other cool harold news for some"

Saying that classic Popbot Oyabun TKs are all done:
"no more classic oya tk"

Confirming that Popbot Waza TK ain't Oyabun:
"not an oya, just packs a large jacket."

About Tomorrow Kings clones origin:
"nah, they are clones of great fighters throughout Japans history."

On offering WWR MOD colorway this year:
"yes, MOD a personal fav of mine, they are the hackers, crackers amd freakers of the WWR universe!"

WWR Harold sale update – more colorways coming:
"actually while i await my ride ill tell my Harold news, as making them is a hard thing indeedm and once the factory in set up for them, i might as well do as many colorways as I can, as it will be a long time before we can get to them again. So along with the sample I have made we shall offer classic colorways, just not samples on hand. so if you trust us, you will have a bigger choice of Harold."

A LOT of WWR and WWRp Harolds photos taken at Thailand Toy Expo and ACG at Guangzhou:

January - 2013 HNqC2tJanuary - 2013 Nqm2ptJanuary - 2013 RGXUqtJanuary - 2013 Yv0iVtJanuary - 2013 GH079tJanuary - 2013 T1ZQ9tJanuary - 2013 IIgeVtJanuary - 2013 BYe38tJanuary - 2013 BtJAjtJanuary - 2013 VSZ0ltJanuary - 2013 PYTU9tJanuary - 2013 3d4fhtJanuary - 2013 B4zoRtJanuary - 2013 9c3a7tJanuary - 2013 OtxpstJanuary - 2013 CqYcxt

Since Harold will be offered in packs of 1/12th and 1/6th scale figures bounded together, here is Ashley answering whether there will be an option to buy one as a single:
"no single sales for harold until the 1/6th sales cover all our costs, it has to be a success to move onto more. it cost a bundle to dev and mold ! fingers crossed"

Answering whether we might see DW&NW Harold during upcoming sale as well:
"i think so gimb, i dig that colorway, the dirty ones though, as they would have been the first in that line they will have slight changes though."

I don't know about you guys, but I been wanting to see damaged WWR Universe bot for a good while and this year it's finally happening! Here is WWRp Bertie MK3 shot, shared by Ashley on the forum next to the teaser from 2012:

January - 2013 Avs82fttJanuary - 2013 VLIgDt

We know that early this week Ashley was looking for WWRp Red Heavy Bramble photos to offer it for sale at Bambalandstore and here is an update:
"this weekend ill look through boxes with samples from that era. i think a grunt/bramble two is needed for it though."

Good news for all WWR Bromwich colorway supporters:
"there will be a bromwich harold."

On doing more damaged bots:
"im going to damaged across the range, but also update and modify too."

James (anubis2night) asked whether there is a chance to offer two classics WWRp Deep Powder and Euro Bramble Olivier in 1/12th scale and here is Ashley's reaction:
"ok thats a 2 pack then ! ill have siu get on it now !"
"Olivier and Deep brambles are a good WWRp Remembrance 2 pack."


Here are WWR Deep Powder and Euro Bramble Olivier images from 2008 and 2009:

January - 2013 OMOimBUtJanuary - 2013 XJrERfKt

And one shot, where you can see the difference between WWRp Euro Bramble Daniel District 24 and WWR Euro Bramble Olivier

January - 2013 WnGTbcZt

Answering whether it's a possibility to resurrect classic Brambles and offer them in 1/6th scale as well:
"no, wwrp only we dont re release stuff, unless I forget and post it, then take it down !"

3A publishing: 3A shots and GOYA are coming along:
"3A shots is coming, GOYA next week"

To remind you, 3A shots - was a project consisting of Legionnaires photos of 3A toys.

Ashley sharing some 2000AD Universe love:
"we have them all on the go, takes time to get right, i dont want rush and make shit.
The 2000ad is a labor of love for me."
"Im hoping this years figure's bring support, especially the Hammerstein as these are really expensive to make and we really need the fans of 2000ad to rally around them !"

More on 2000AD Hammerstein and 2000AD in general:
"I spend everyday surrounded by art from the greatest comic ever, I really love this stuff, and want to be the guy that made the best toys possible for it. I think when people see hammerstein, they will dig him, check out the cover to the second ABC Warriors album by Titann for a good idea of how he will look"

Here is the cover Ashley is referring to:

January - 2013 DS5lb9ut

More info 2000AD Hammerstein can be found in the opening post of this thread as well, where a lot of info is summarized by Ming.

In the end of covering another Q&A session, I want to quickly address something. Surprisingly, I saw a discussion about this and got PMs from few of the guys, who exposed their concern about lots of 2000AD answers and titbits, and how there is not enough Popbot, Adventure Kartel and TK KLUB updates, but guys, if you have something on your mind – you wish to ask Ashley, there is an "Ask away" section on the forum , I encourage you to be more active and ask your questions there, everyone has an opportunity to do that!

Action Portable shipping update and upcoming plans:
Here are the releases, which been fully passed to our forwarding company for next stage of shipping:

Action Portable Slicer Tomorrow Kings (singles & packs, which includes: Slicer Tomorrow King Baka; Slicer Tomorrow King Kyuuketsuki with bot head and Slicer Tomorrow King 3pack )
Action Portable Heavy Tomorrow Kings (singles & pack, which includes: Heavy Tomorrow King Kato, Nasu, Soh singles and Heavy Tomorrow King 3pack)

Action Portable The Two Oyabun 2pack already shipped out some time ago.

Few people were asking about Action Portable Interheavy TK shipping. This figure was offered as the surprise during AP Fantome / Barguest de Plume sale, which took place two month later than AP Slicer & Heavy Tomorrow Kings and estimated shipping time for it was listed as 1st quarter of 2013, therefore it’s not shipping together with AP Slicer and Heavy TKs.

I already made an update about this, but since people keep sending emails: we shipped out all MGS REX orders this month.

Speaking about upcoming plans, we plan to start preparing shipping of Real Steel: Midas soon and I’ll keep you posted about our progress.

If you want to get tracking number of your Bambalandstore orders, you can contact our customers service ( cs@threeaonline.com ) and if you have any questions whatsoever about your ThreeA orders (or special instructions/wishes in mind), please do it straight away. I know that some people are shy and prefer not to disturb our CS, but please never hesitate to contact us, we will be delighted to help you! If you prefer social networks, you can reach out for advice and direction to 3Asupport on twitter or engage with our official 3AVOX Facebook page.

January - 2013 OrAVum6t

Ashley Wood about Totem (new line, which was presented in 2012) figures coming to us soon:
"Totem alien ans suit soon! Alien thingy first !

About ghosts in general (this theme is very interesting to Ashley):
"ghosts and all that involves is great, i love it, but I take a very metered approach !
keep bringing the stories !"


Good news for all pink colorway admirers: Bromwich Grunt is coming!
"GRT2.0 for bromwich"

28.01

Sharing information about 2000AD Dredd
"the first Dredd isnt a Bolland or Mcmahon perse, its a 2000ad Dredd. it has elements of all, not saying we wont do versions. Would love to do a dredd bike, but we need the support to do it!"

Popbot Slicer TQs has been designed:
"Slicer TQ has been designed, i just have to get to it !"

Do you set a plan for your creative agenda or do you just go with what tickles your fancy at any particular moment?
"just what takes my fancy for my stuff, but for licensed stuff its more ordered, but thats not my dept"

Answering about AK Mumbs

January - 2013 U0uvVNXt

"Mumb love ! 4 pack, blind singles, unseen random in singles."

Our boardie jsalsa23 is doing unofficial Legion Hats giveaway absolute for free (he has four) and if you want one , please participate in this thread.

WWR Harold has a pre-order date and it's February 6th 9:00AM Hong Kong time. Harold sets (one in 1/6th scale and one in 1/12th scale) come in many colorways...I'm sure each World War Robot Universe fan, will be able to find his favorite one or two among 'em:

January - 2013 RkP14Lmt

Ashley giving some idea about WWR Harold price:
"the Harold set will be around 300 for both figures, which is a bargain, considering large martin was 300 all those years back! have to confirm prices though, should know soon"

Will the 1/6th and 1/12th figures in the backs be the same colorway or will we have options to choose 2 different one? I'd love to be able to get Desert in 1/6th and then choose a totally different little buddy.
"they are the same"

So, when you are pre-ordering let's say DIY Harold – you are getting two figures: one DIY Harold in 1/6th scale and one DIY Harold in 1/12th scale

January - 2013 StakLt

Answering why WWR Harold is offered together with his WWRp Harold version and it's not possible to purchase them separately:
"economics, contrary to believe we do not make bundles of cash , or sell like hot toys or sideshow etc. The big Harold is an expensive toy and the mini version is an incentive for the fans willing to support our stuff. The Harold would have cost the same regardless if it came with a WWRp or not."
"I just hope for the best, you guys decide whether the show continues, its the purest way !"


is Nightwatch .2 Harold a non-N.O.M. Bot? or is it the same as N.O.M. NW Heavy Bramble?
"they wil be original style NW DW, as they are the early members in the story."

Saying that Dark Deed colorway offered for Harolds, will be different from Dirty Deeds one:
"DARK DEED BEFORE BERTIE !

Can we have a comparison pic of a human and a Harold together, Ashley?
"no you cant gar !"

Speaking about WWR Harold 1/6th scale size, here are the facts from WWR JDF Harold profile at Good Smile store: Height: 36cm (14.2 inches), Length: 30cm (11.8 inches), Breadth: 35cm (13.8 inches), Cannon Length: 38cm (15 inches).

Btw, WWR JDF Harold (which was first Harold and Good Smile exclusive) is starting to ship from Good Smile, so we got to see Harolds photos in hand soon, I'm sure it will to many people, whether jump on Harold wagon or not.

So , I'll try to summarize all what we know about WWR Harold release right now. All 15 shown colorways will be offered for pre-order on the same day: February 6th, 9:00AM HK time. Each 1/6th scale Harold comes with 1/12th scale Harold fig, sharing the same colorway and costs around 300USD (haven't been finalized yet though). Since Ashley decided to offered bigger selection of colorway for Harold release – not all of them are manufactured and you will be have to make your choice, without photos for some of them – like in good old days, when WWR Mr. Frosty Large Martin was offered or WWR Dropcloths were shown without final decals.

All AK Shit Weather Bleak and Fucking Tracky Bleak orders been passed to our forwarder. So if you need tracking number, please contact our customer service at cs@threeaonline.com

Ashley about upcoming Harold sale (February 6th, 9:00AM HK time):
"Harold sale is set , just have to see how it goes, it will either be the start of a classic Harold period or the one and only sale!"

On WWR Hatchery Guard LM (Beijing Gathering Exclusive) to 1/12th scale:

January - 2013 Lglw5PSt

"the hatchery version ? have no idea, ill see if there a spot to do it."

About more WWR bots getting made in various fractions colors:
"all factions will get filled out over time, they all matter!"

After filling other fractions, immediately came a question about some rare ones and here is the answer:
"African defense is a classic, going to release a cool solider hopefully for them, they are important and play a large role in the WWR world. Of course the gimps will whine about decals and insignia.

PFloyd are moon based armstrongs and dont really extend beyond that. Man I love the armstrong design.

Dawn Patrol might see some love

Dambuster might have a wait.."


Here is the image of African Defense Heavy Bramble, to give you some idea about decals and insignia:

January - 2013 ShKAFt

As you know WWR and WWRp Harolds are offered as a set and each comes in it's own box:
"they each get a box"

What does the DBG stand for on the WF/Jungler bots?
"DBG refers to Major my Dad was stationed with."

Can you tell us anything more about the DARK DEEDS colorway?
"Its Dark Deed, not the plural, before the much loved dirty deeds failed attempt on ol Rothy, the powers thats be has tested the idea much earlier with harold. A hit on the Martian Magistrate Theodore Roosevelt Adams. good times"

We waited for a while and WWR War Nurse comes out this year!
"war nurse this year"

Whether War Nurse is from WWR Universe:
"WWR
want to upset the puritans again, who were fuzzled by the Supreme NOM"
"WAR NURSE JESSICA sounds too cool not too. there ya go, thats her official name, at least the Brunette version !"


First details about TK KLUB
"TK Klub is easy
in feb sometime ill offer a TK, a drawing, by pre ordering it you are a member, BUT if you dont get the next one, your out. Harsh yes, but its better than me asking for all the money in advance or sumin. But thats the KLUB, you either in with it and fly the flag supporting the TK,my time and 3A's to do it, or not. If your in, you get access to cool TKs and TK 1:1 shirts etc. If the support base isnt there, it stops.
Your at the controls, you can opt out anytime and it costs you nothing, I think thats fair. I of course will have to design them, illustrate and generally spend my time making them awesome, so really the only risk is mine.
hopefully by next FEB we will have 10-12 TK. Im happy to make one!
thats basically it, a little different, a little fun!"


Confirming that there will be other TK releases outside TK LUB:
"of course TK will get normal release, 7B and the like. the KLUB is for more obscure or re imaginings etc.
The TK Klub is there because i have been asked to do it many times, I have ideas and stories for TK to fill many years of figs."


So if we buy the first TK but for whatever reason miss the next one we can't order the one after that? Ouch! So they will be a monthly TK drop then?
"well I have to deliver a new design and spend my dwindling time way before i know it will work ( actually no different to 3A normal ) but thats TK KLUB, or it wouldnt be a KLUB, you have my back, i have yours !"

We'll have notifications about the drop thought right? They won't be a blink and miss it thing will they?
"if you blink you miss 3A!" (direct link so you could understand the context better)

On next WWR book, which is cooking for some time now:
"re WWR book, Im working on new stories with Paula for a complete edition WWR, basically the older two books and the supplement etc. Will add new stuff in.
The problem is, I dont make my art in PS or with computers much anymore, its all analog and takes longer etc. plus i dont have assistants, help or any system sin place to assist, which i like. so yea, shit takes way longer than i hope. I always appreciate my audience and their patience."


About making a specific print for us.
"3A is my art
you guys pick sumin and tell me."
"much of the older art was shot with inferior digital cameras etc, which is a bummer!"


About Running painting:
"really, no cared for it at venture nor ever mentioned it too me till this thread, i was just chatting to a chap about it, hanging in the first story of my studio now.
I have to say its one of the best 3A related paintings I have done, im glad it was mentioned !"

Ashley about next Dawn Patrol bot:
" ill call the next one Private Howson !
My father was stationed in Bovington too !"


Whether TK KLUB releases are limited to one per member:
"crem, yup one per member"

On pushing WWR Meat is Murder set back, since it's too close to WWR Harold FS release:
"still have to cost the meat is murder figure out shipping etc, it aint gonna be cheap, I dont think many will be made !"
"you know i might push the MIM back a bit, thats too close, 22nd it is !"


WWR Harold FS will cost you 300USD shipped, you get both WWR and WWRp versions of the same Harold colorway in every box. It's first time when we are offering WWR & WWRp in one box!

Ashley commenting about beautiful Harold FS art shown above:
"those are sloggers in the painting"

On figures which were mentioned, but haven't been offered yet:
"re stuff mentioned, well its all on the go, but situations arise where shit gets pushed back etc, sometimes stuff changes over time too, gets better i hope."

Answering about ideas and inspiration to the paintings:
"good ideas are always when im not ion the studio, the really good ones stay in close memory for when im back at the board."

On making Hellboy:
"If Mike Mignola asked me to make A HB I would, no problem !"

Can we get some pics of the new studio and some hints at what you're working on now? Expanding with the dark themes of the Levine show or going in a new direction?
"I have got much on the go, I figured i was getting too public and showey with all the levine stuff, so I just thought I would hold back on my new stuff, but its a continuing theme, levine wasnt a new thing really, just a road in the journey etc. Sex, death, the unknown are the way marks !"

Favorite samurai movie?
"Shogun assassin is my fav."

About his new studio:
"my new studio is the best, it has 25 foot windows and all the light and space i need, im deep in hock for it and will have to sell some paintings to pay for it"

On WWR Harold FS tracks:
"the tracks move, you can push it along, kinda shit if it didnt"

Is there any reason DP Harold uses the 'new' paintscheme even though it's older than the Bramble and Bertie?
"the DP is the first style, remember DEEP POWDER refers to large group of winter soldiers and robots, they all have their own idiosyncrasies and style. the Snow Sniper ( on sale soon ) comes under the Deep Powder group but has a different decal design."

WWR Snow Sniper Ashley is referring to:

January - 2013 ZwDYqtJanuary - 2013 SxAmUt

There will be TK Mego this year (since we are doing a line of 8" toys):
"3EGO TK this year !"

Sergio Toppi art-books news:
"toppi books are coming !"

Ashley answering about will there be a poster with WWR Harold FS sets:
"a poster as well!
ill be back later, some quick crap photos on the blog of stuff." - hard for me to say with 100% certainty though, I'll check later about that

I seen mentioned above ( Q&A in "Ask" thread) Ashley promised to update his blog showing his latest paintings and stuff around the studio...so you can click here to check that update.

Not sure if Ashley is joking here, since there is a smiley on the end...so please take it with some consideration, until there is no confirmation on the blog or more details posted closer to the sale:
"yea, if you buy all the harolds ill throw a discount in and sumin else, maybe that poster Smile"
