UV NOM Hinkon 046 1

Underverse is the new home of artist Ashley Wood after 3A divided into two back in 2019.  Licensed stuff went with ThreeZero, and the Ashley Wood properties went with Underverse.  Things are picking back up with some old faithful items – 1/6th scale World War Robot figures, including today’s NOM Hinkon Tracker.  For those that need a refresher on World War Robot:

via 3AFans – World War Robot (WWR) is a graphic novel illustrated by artist Ashley Wood and written by both Ashley Wood and TP Louise. The [art] book combines an unconventional use of pairing painted images and essays to tell small parts of a larger story. The prose include excerpts from various diaries, journals and transcripts based around the humans involved in a fictional war in the 1980-1990s known as the Great War.

3A, and now Underverse, have served that story for a while releasing high end product with faithful representation to the lore. Post-apocalyptic themed humans in crazy military gear and non conventional robots, it’s a unique world that stands on it’s own.

The NOMs are the first two “traditional” returns to the WWR lore.  NOM Hinkon featured here has a brown jacket and white helmet, and Nomad NOM which released around the same time is darker all around.  Both also have other subtle differences throughout.

Read on to check out our shots of the 1/6th scale figure in hand, along with some additional thoughts courtesy of Underverse!

Make sure to check out Underverse.com to keep up on all that’s coming out, including their new Pocket Universe line which has all the goodness here but in 1/18th scale!

x Threezero Power Rangers Hero Shots 2048 02

Threezero are continuing their licensing onslaught with the Power Rangers, kicking things off with a massive FigZero 1/6th scale box set. The set includes all 5 core Rangers along with Tommy aka the Green Ranger. These are available in a collector box that folds open to show them all lined up. Each one will also be available individually of course, but if you want the whole team in one shot, this box set is what to aim for.

Threezero was kind enough to send through a set to review, and we are taking a look across the network. You can check out the Red and Yellow Ranger here at Toyark. The Black and Blue Ranger are available over at TokuNation.com. And then to cap it off, check out the Green and Pink Rangers over on PWRRNGR.com. The pics of the packaging and fancy hero shots are available at each.

These were due to ship in Q3 2021. As we all know by now, shipping is a mess globally so assume dates are shifting forward. Some folks who bought retail have received individual figures. The rest should be coming soon(ish), same for this box set. Hit your favorite Threezero stockist to grab your copies if you dig em!

Universal Monsters Wolf Man NECA 051

Today we have a special advanced look at one of NECA’s most anticipated horror releases, The Wolf Man (Color Version) Ultimate 7″ Scale Figure. The figure, part of the Universal Monsters collection, is currently scheduled for release in December. The figure will be followed by a black and white version in early 2022 for fans who want a version that more closely represents his on-screen appearance.

“Even a man who is pure in heart, and says his prayers by night;
May become a wolf when the wolfsbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.”

In 1941, Universal Pictures unleashed The Wolf Man starring Lon Chaney Jr. While not their first werewolf film, that falls to Werewolf of London from 1935, The Wolf Man is easily the more recognizable of the two. The movie follows Lawrence Talbot, as he returns home to Wales following the death of his brother. While there, he falls in love with a local antique shop owner named Gwen. One night, he spots a friend of Gwen’s being attacked by a wolf-like beast and rushes to help. During the struggle, Talbot is bitten by the creature, dooming him to the same fate as a werewolf.

The film turned Lon Chaney Jr. into an instant horror icon. Lon Chaney Jr. would go on to portray a werewolf in at least six additional films, including memorable appearances in Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943), and Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948). His portrayal of the Wolf Man is one of the most iconic takes on a werewolf in film history. The look became the basis for nearly every werewolf in film for decades, until the 80’s ushered in a slew of new werewolf films that would redefine the genre.

The Wolf Man figure from NECA includes swap out pieces to display the figure as the Wolf Man, or as Lawrence Talbot, including the authorized likeness of actor Lon Chaney Jr. Accessories included two interchangeable werewolf portraits, swap out hands, swap out feet, a wolf trap, a cane, and a figure stand. Read on for my impressions of the figure, as well as full photo gallery.
