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.
