WWR Armstrong

Can't wait to get a shipping notice this set is going to be awesome

Has anyone seen, heard or know when Dario+Faust set is shipping? Wasn't it meant to be in November? Any info would be nice....

It was planned for November.

But it slipped a bit since Ashley posted his "Monday morning packaging work"  Instagram pic on November 27th.
No idea if it still ships this year.

Off topic, but I was wondering the same thing about Peppermint Grove Robot Krieger.

Ash wasn't happy with the preproduction paintwork, so he had them revise it which is the main cause of the delay for Dario + Faust

Nice to hear that it's not just a random delay. I don't mind the extra wait if it's to improve the paintjob, weathering seems to be kind of hit or miss lately so I'm glad they're putting in the extra effort on this one, especially since it was so pricey.

It seems Dario and Faust are shipping.

Not sure about the digi cammo or the weathering on the Armstrong. Hope it looks better in hand. I didn't get one but I hope everyone who gets one is happy.

Overall, this set looks good. I have mixed feelings about it though. Some parts I like and some I don't. I slightly regret not getting it. I'd like to see more pics though.

Hm, i think the set looks great and like a homerun.
But i didn`t have any newer Bots, as my last Bot purchases were the Ago Squares and MOD Mighty (beside aftermarket DP Harold), and these were very nice, but of course not as great as the older (Lok?) OG Bots, but that was another er3a....

I can see these are starting to arrive, I still have yet to receive my shipping notice. Usually I receive one for all my orders but nothing yet also since final fight NOM is shipping this month as well same story no notice for him either.

I can't wait to get this set in hand and have them stand along side the other DIGI army I am building.

Ordered to complete my SF Jungle Defence platoon.

Of what has been shared online it looks like a decent set.
Weathering is in line with the other robots in this colorway.
Packaging looks great.

Funny to see how the elusive Jungle Armstrong finally turned out and I really wonder how I'll be able to get another Armstrong on my already crammed Rothchild shelf.

Totally forgot about the elusive jungle Armstrong. I remember being on the list of people committed to buy one and thinking how cool it was to be in on it but then nothing, I'm assuming that list is long gone and forgotten about but I'd still love to see it.

yeah remember that as well. list was for the WF jungler colorway, existed in WWR before Roth escaped moon. when the WF were revealed to be on his side they started rockin the digi cammy look.

Ash claimed to have a WF Armstrong ver sample way back but was lost sadly, so we never even saw it.

Yeah. I'm not digging the digi camo like I do the old school Jungler camo. I'm still sad we never got a proper WF Jungler Armstrong. The armstrong is still one of my favorite bots though and I like the digi camo paint job on it.

...cool,._..intel whispers....

Dario looks like a vet, last line for r-chld...failed?


7174 and Oats Studio would be boom...

Really not digging the beard/hair paint apps on the grunt head, they really don’t compliment the sculpt at all, I’ll probably try to repaint it or replace it. Everything else looks pretty good though, really excited to get my set.

^Yeah, I'm not sure I'm a fan of Dario's beard and hair, but I'll reserve judgement for when I've got the set in hand. Although with mask and helmet on I guess it's not an issue as won't be able to see them anyways.

Looks like this set will be arriving today, should be ready to pick up by the time my workday is done.

Dario and Faust arrived today.
Hopefully I have time to unpack them tomorrow.

Just got around to watching the video there now GeisT but damn that Oats Studio is pretty damn impressive and would fit nicely with ThreeA.

Cheers Skipper,

yeah, some major Jungler/JEA vibes in the Oats clip...

Damn, Armstrongs are big bots! This is the first one I've owned and I gotta say, I'm impressed by their size in hand. Both of my sets arrived today, but I've only had time to inspect one of them.

Now that I've seen Dario up close I think his hair/stubble looks fine. Kind of helps set him apart from other grunts. Sort of like Frank the bot sniper.

You guys are weak sauce! Where are the pics?
