Copperhead-18 Sea Monkey, Copperhead Squadt & Taiboss @ Taipei Toy Festival 2009
Folks heading down to TTF and Taipei-fans of Kenny Wong, Ashley Wood + threeA Toys, FERG + Project Squadt will be in for a visual treat this coming Taipei Toy Festival (July 9-12). Why? Because they will witness first hand, up close and personal the following awesome toy-ness at Kennyswork's Booths B34 & B35:
(A) The Wong x Wood Collaboration COPPERHEAD-18 SEA MONKEY!*
(B) The Wong x Ferg COPPERHEAD SQUADT!*
(C) The threeA Toys red-variant Bambaboss = TAI BOSS!*
(*Totally deserving of italics and exclamation-marks)

The COPPERHEAD-18 SEA MONKEY is said to stand 20 inches tall and features an Ashley-Wood designed 1/6th-scaled female pilot (named "Snow Pea") which operates the Sea Monkey suit. The above image was spotted on the 3A Toy Forum (legitimacy undetermined), while the headshot below is via Kenny's official blog. The set will be on display during TTF and not for sales. (Product launch at a later date). But please snap loads of pics folks, for all our collective 3A+Copperhead-lurving sakes!
[Below is a blurry image reveal of the WIP Pilot from Ashley Wood]
The COPPERHEAD SQUADT is one of three (announced) Artist Series Squadts which sees the mash-up of Kenny's Copperhead creation with Jamungo's FERG aka Clay Ferguson's Project Squadt! I'm just thankful for the other toys around the submersible-specimen that he isn't carrying a spear-gun, but a tool/cutter instead! LOL
Copperhead Squadt will only be on display at TTF and not for sale. (Product launch at a later date). There is also mention of 3 versions (*faints*). And will the other two Artist-Squadts from Ashley Wood and Methamphibian be on show too? (Hell, I'm getting goose-pimples while typing this up too!)
As posted on TRE last week, the red-colorway Bambaboss figure - dubbed TAIBOSS - is a TTF-exclusive figure limited on only 30 pcs (with an additional 5 pcs to be made available online to the 3A Legion on the 3A Forum). While specific price is not mentioned, do note that this RED hot bambaboss taiwan version will be released on
FYI: The all-white Bambaboss DIY was made available for 24 hours at a price of US$46-per, in celebration of the first anniversary of threeA Toys.
