The 3A Thread

[YoNoSe]

Depends, a fair number of the releases also get distributed through Sideshow, often they are released in paint jobs exclusive to Sideshow as well.

The only problem currently is you almost never know, by the time the 3A PO is up, if there will be a retail release. I find it a bit frustrating at times in honesty but I cut them some slack as they are getting better at it and are still a fairly young and small company. The one thing I really want them to do is start accepting CCs at Bambaland so I don't have to pay for POs up front.

Thanks for the info!

My custom 2handpop.

Somebody (Wai Man?) posted it in Facebook...amazing work and really love what you did and would like to make this myself

I was a little bummed with the very early plans of including a swappable hand where scrapped, but I really like the hook better.

Cool work all the same. Did you swap a hand from Badbot or the Ascended Pop?

Sorry, but I know nothing about 3A and their figures. They look interesting and different from the HT that I collect. Could someone let me know what the quality and construction of their 1/6 scale is like. Thanks.

Some of the human figures, the females in particular have seen some breakage issues. The ankles mostly. The male figures I have never had any issues with and the robots are all very solid. Their paint work, for the style it's in is pretty unparalleled.


It holds up even under the unnaturally close scrutiny of a macro lens.

I remember you showed some details to your holster. Don't remember where though.
Do you have any details to how I can do one?
Any info is greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much in advance!

Basically, I wet formed the leather to the gun and held it down with pins. I pushed in pins all around where I was planning on sewing it. I let it dry, then sewed through where the pin holes where.

Finished with a hand rubbed vegetable dye.

Hi guys, newbie here in 3A figures. I'm planning to get a Fighting JC figure..how much is the running price on that guy? And what's the reasonable price for him? as I want to make him my 1st 3A figure. Just the weathering effects on him!

 

[dedguy]

I personally wouldn't pay more than retail ($85 iirc) but I think that ship has sailed.

Ah ok. What's "iirc" btw? How much is the running price on this guy @ the market?

 

[dedguy]

"if I recall correctly"

What he's selling for @ market is whatever it's selling for on eBay. Pretty easy to check. Just check completed auctions.

Ohh I get it..sorry I'm not really used to chat linggo hehe!

Ah ok, hopefully I could find a decent price on this guy and not those crazy price we usually see in eBay.

Thanks for the advice bro!

 

[dedguy]

A good price I would say would be close to retail. Market price is what ever it sells for on the market, ie eBay. Stuff is worth whatever it will sell for.
