Pass on it, they will be on the aftermarket the very next day, you could actually wait until they ship out and manage to get a decent deal still.

I am not buying them, since I dont need a bunch of AP toys that are not WWRp, lol.

Good luck to those peeps buying![/quote

I picked up TQ interloper, finger gang set and medic grunt, couldn't resist!

Eric Wed Feb 20, 2013 1:26 am

Passed on all and fell great about the decision. I have money to spend on other stuff now!

Priced well, but shipping is killer with AP.

@Eric, I'm pretty stoked I didnt cave in myself, it speaks wonders about my hoarding behavior. hahaha!

Eric Wed Feb 20, 2013 8:39 am

I have heard from several hard core 3AAers that passed. My time is done. If I buy 2 figures this year I'll be surprised. I'd rather buy Skinner and PK than 3A

Right there with you man!

OK, while I am a bit fatigued by the regular 3A fair being sold they have just announced that 3A will be doing 1/6th scale MARVEL characters in Ash's style. Now this could be interesting!

It's going to be awesome! I can't wait to see them Smile

Since you're kinda fatigued by 3A are you selling any of your items Eric?

I still will keep a few and buy some older rare squadts but I'm definitely not impressed anymore.

Anyone have info on this?

Custom??

gasTHUMB Mon Feb 25, 2013 10:03 pm

think it is the EMGY grunt that was a secret drop sometime back, just dressed down without the coat?

ontheDL Mon Feb 25, 2013 10:20 pm

Oh, thanks. BOOOOOOOO. I'm not that into 3AA but occasionally I see something that catches my eye.

niskio Tue Feb 26, 2013 1:49 am

I think only the chainsaw more then...is the EMGY Trooper

ictoys Tue Feb 26, 2013 4:34 am

I think that grunt is a custom. I wasn't aware of any EMGY grunt with a chainsaw. A cool custom never the less, would love it to be an official release Very Happy

Gatiio Tue Feb 26, 2013 6:31 am

Completely caught me off guard with that chainsaw. Yeah, it looks like a normal EMGY grunt that has been kitbashed.

Pretty cool, I almost never get to see their arms, so the grime there completely messed up my mental image of it. hahaha.

Im glad they are so damn versatile, thats one of the most funs about action figure toys.

jorester Tue Feb 26, 2013 1:21 pm

awesome !!! i love a chain saw and gasman !!!

LOL yeah sorry guys just fell off the Squadt boat, I haven't sold all my Squadt figures but just not impressed with the product at the $95-115 price rate anymore. On a side note the new EMGY WWRP Grunt looks pretty sweet! Anyone picking that one up tomorrow?

Admin Thu Feb 28, 2013 7:31 pm

Please note the price is actually closer to $65-$75 on squadt direct releases. It cost $30 minimum to ship these internationally.

You have no idea what a great value Squadt's really are.

3A will make you a lot happier. Especially when that custom is not what is being sold. Just wait until you get something that looks nothing like the proto images that are posted. lol!

yanyaniscool Thu Feb 28, 2013 8:59 pm

Actually i know that the image isn't what the EMGY Grunt WWRP looks like. I never said I quit collecting squadts I just won't buy the new ones, I rather collect the older more rare squadts. As for the value of squadts I think it all depends on the person that owns them, we all have our own opinions and I personally am just not impressed with the newer figures.

Gatiio Fri Mar 01, 2013 2:43 pm

3A puts thousands of toys at each release, if you compare that to squadts. it is also a different approach to selling.

one is a toy company, the other an artist making toys. Different goals I guess. Im glad you're still around though, since both are produced by the same company.

In any case, I skipped on the EMGY grunt, I only collect 666th on WWRp and the bright yellow uniform completely makes me think its an idiotic color for any sort of soldier in any sort of environment, urban or not. Unless it is the French's factory of course. u__u

Razz
