3AA Exclusive GEBI de Plume (May 8-order)

3AA-Exclusive 1/6-scaled Gebi de Plume [tagged] order is set for May 8th at 9am Melbourne-time (NYC May 7 @ 7pm / London Midnight 7/8 May). Limited to only 100 pcs - the Desert-themed Gebi costs US$150-per (includes shipping via EMS). Price excludes 15% discount for 3AA members!

According to Gimbat on the 3A-Forum: "If Gebi de Plume wouldn't be sold out during first hour during 3AA club sale , it would be offered to general audience." = Considering this will be the last de Plume from Ashley Wood and 3A Toys for a long while apparently, I do not see that happening frankly. 10 minutes tops.

FYI: There was an entire story that came along with the email, but perhaps that'll keep til after Gebi sells out, yeh? *Stay tuned to TRE*

Yo Jam

I finally received your letter six months late, sorry for the late reply, our unit was redeployed to the Gobi basin, no rest as promised. For several weeks we’ve been getting hit by a Martian strike force dug in around the Altai Mountains, I say nuke em, but no, its a PR problem I’m told, would look bad, like we cant get the job done without excessive force ?? I know, fucking retards...

So anyway, check this, the mortar attacks were falling heavily around our position pretty much constantly day and night and we do our best to return the favour, but we’ve been stuck with Harold units for this gig, I’m sure you’ll hear all about Harold during your enlistment, so I don’t have to go into that here, but its like having a 2 year old kid packing a rocket launcher… Our supply line had gone silent we weren’t sure how long we could keep our tails up, when suddenly the assault stopped, fucking silence, kinda scary, we could hear faint sporadic gunfire coming from the ridge.

The CO tried to get info on the local allies but no one spoke good enough Chinese in our group to gather any reliable info, hey we're a class act! As far we knew we were alone out here. By noon the sporadic gunfire was replaced by the sound of massive explosions, there was tons of thick black smoke, munitions and fuel I reckon. Me and Sarge drew short straws to take a reccy.

After a stinking climb over the ridge, we saw Martians scattered everywhere, torn apart by heavy fire, Brambles and Berties motionless burnt out shells, the Bob's that had made our life’s hell from mortar attacks were toppled and wrecked. We moved through the clusterfuck to find some kinda soldier/merc ?, sitting atop of a totalled Bertie. Covered in mud and dirt, his face was hidden by a gasmask and he looked like shit, he was no Martian, no Sir. He looks up briefly, not giving a shit about us and says, “They got in my way”, man I was fucking speechless.

At that point my CO arrives and gasmask just jumps down walks away into the smoke and shit, the CO didn’t even try to stop him in, let alone acknowledge him. Why would he just let him walk, this creepy fucker knew what happened here. Later I asked the CO about the dick in the gasmask, he told me to stop making shit up or it's the brig, what the fuck is that? A report saying that the Martian forces were taken out by a massive munition malfunction was eventually sent to powers that be.

Yeah right, I know what I saw, creepy fucking gas masked dude wiping out entire Martian squads? there’s some strange shit going on here.

Well there you have it another day in the field for ya brother of mine, still hoping this is all a nightmare!!!

Bill.
