N.O.M. discussion - Commanders, de Plume, etc.

Helmet and Mask I bet. I really like the blue.

Finally home..and still undecided..i really like the blue.

The question is how hard is it going to be to track down the other one?

The BBICN are already on eBay! A bit expensive at the moment but I'm sure the price will drop now these guys have hit Bamba! I probably prefer the blue as well OLB!

I know..the crux of it all.

I'm hoping to get them all. No crux for me. But $300, no way. Will wait to see if other online retailers get them at a cheaper price.

Yeah..im not paying 300 for any of them. I can wait if needed. I would like to see the 7174 version pop up though..happy to cart that one!
(i know it wont though..lol)

Went ahead and grabbed one assuming the red might be toned down a bit in the final. Still going to hunt the others. It's so hard not to cave with 3A sometimes.

Haha. So true.

I caved as well.
I am pretty sure I would regret if I didn't.

Now to hunt the blue.

Bought one otherwise I'd be kicking myself, would of prefered a noir 100% over this though. I don't really dig the red helmet but I guess I can alter it. Hope it doesn't look very red come in hand... where's DD #6?

Where's DD?
Where's robot club?
How about a monthly upcoming sales list?

Wow, new neo OG 3A Nom looks better and better, really dig the redish mask and helmet
as it reminds of the old hatchery guard figures and botheads...impressive thick and deep OG weathering detected!  

Looks like 7174 doesn`t drop today or did i read Ash Insta comments wrong?

I like the red helmet too, will match well with the medic squad. He shall be the commander of the medic nom squad. Will be good if the trouser Colour tone is more to dessert brown than it can partner with nurse Betsy

Scored the one on Bamba now waiting for 7174 to drop. I think this will be only my 6th purchase in the past 9 months from 3A. Not buying the allotment like I use to.

It figures that the one I prefer (blue f3actory) is the one that is or will be the most difficult and costly to obtain.  Really torn on whether or not to grab the bamba version.  Sounds like I may not have much time to decide either.  No pressure.

Gamble on getting the BBICN exclusive at a later date for a decent price, or pull the trigger on bamba version now?  Decisions, decisions.

I've ruled out the 7174 version as I have enough black figures (NOM Commanders, Von NOM, NOM 27th).

Complicating my decision is the fact that I just found the BBICN Dark Oyaloper TK Zim brand new for the original price a little over a week ago, which gives me hope it could happen again with BBICN NOM.  3Aaaargh!

Final Fight will be the only drop, and 7174 sounds pre-made to me

Decided to skip Final Fight NOM.  Given my current financial situation, it's simply not a good idea.  Every time I compare the red version to the blue one, I always come away liking the blue more.  Hopefully I can locate one for a reasonable price at a later date when I'm in a better position to buy.  And if I end up with neither one, no big deal.  I have too many figures anyway.

I'm not sold on the red or blue helmet. I have NOM4 so I'll just stick with that for now.

I was hoping NOM would be off Bamba, but it's not, so I gave in. Like chiowhon, he will make a good Medic NOM.

I have NOM 4th as well, but I was never truly a fan of the multi-hose look (he's back in his box).  In my mind it didn't logically make sense to have more than one hose.  Helmet aside, single hose just looks so much cleaner and better to me.

So the 4th and Nom De Plume are different people? but the same person in variants like 27th or Blanc?

been awhile so my WWR intel is rusty but nom de plume, noir de plume and nom 4th is same dude, as the 4th he is in disciple gear. as noir he is controllign the dirty deeds or at least influencing them.

blanc, jung and gebi and rest are diff plumes. disciples are diff category of plumes more fanatical less likey to go rogue. this is final ver of nom de plume per intel, after he was noir perhaps, after he as returned to supreme and sent back out for this final "battle"?

and yeah im sure we will see more vers just like TKs, its endless really.

Trip out...thanks for the intel.
