the imminent invasion of wwrp and wwrs figures from 3a toys
After establishing ground in the 1/6th-scale-genre with their premium range of figures (who tread an untapped zone between art toys, mecha and military-themes) and continuing to do so - Ashley Wood and 3A Toys are threading beyond the scale with the BAMBA LAD figurine [TAGGED], and now a planned invasion into hobby model-scale and action figure collectible territory is imminent - with the advent of two upcoming toy-lines (and scales), currently dubbed: WWRP and WWRS. CLICK THRU for the information culled thus far :)
(cheers for the headsup, Gar!)
WWRP aka World War Robot Portable
- is approximately 1/12 scale (around half the size of existing 1/6-Berties / Brambles).
- Both Brambleton and Bertie The Pipebot are apart the WWRP-range.
- will possess articulation (except for legs)..
- Ashley mentions on the 3A-Forum: "all different colors and variations.. its exciting to me.. build the dirty deeds squad with Nom commanding... infact that would make a crazy set...." - would that mean it would be more than just mechas? And that there'll be action figurines? (aka Nom).
- An exclusive WWRP Bertie or Bramble variant will be included in the 3A-Associates membership. Models #0 and 00 - being the start of the WWRP-line and available no where else.
WWRS aka World War Robot Strategy
- is 1/35 scale (Military model / Hobby scale)
- Line will include vehicles, "battle damaged bots, "crazy" variations."
- To be available in sets and different variations.
I'm down for Basic Playsets (mecha with fire team etc), with expandable Figure-Packs (for army building) and maybe in time, Diorama-Sets - pretty much like those little plastic army dudes, with vehicles and molded-trenches and foxholes - stuff which we collected as a young'un, but now via the magic of the 3A-wand? damn ... just drenched me pants again ... it's gonna be a looooong weekend, folks!
