3A Star Wars Alternate

As a fan of 3A toys, I was excited to see their news release this morning in my mailbox about a new line of figures they’re doing: Star Wars Alternate. For those who don’t know, 3A is a toy, publishing and entertainment company founded by Kim Fung Wong and Ashley Wood. They make ridiculously cool, highly articulated and detailed toys, primarily robots and Japanese anime style human figures. Here’s the news in Ash’s own words.

Anyway, what’s been going on? Ok, spent the weekend discussing our upcoming STAR WARS line, which I’ll say is gonna be called STAR WARS ALTERNATE for now, that’s pretty exciting for me, coz I’m one of those f**kers that got inspired the day I saw the first SW film! Creative puberty hit hard that day, soon as I got home that day I made lego space ships and pretended to be Luke Skywalker, I’m not sure I ever stopped. So to be able to add to the story – albeit an alternate view – is a gift, and that goes for all of us who will directly shape this new world. Expect a proper press release and info, and I’m sure everyone will say Ash you can’t just casually announce, but hey I’m Luke Skywalker, and if I remember he kinda just did things his own way!

You might remember the 3A Star Warriors which were shown off last year which were part of their Tomorrow Kings line. Whether this new line will be similar to that, or more in line with the prototype Boba Fett and Stormtrooper they made a few years back, we’ll just have to wait and see.

ThreeA’s Nod to Star Wars

As a toy collector, ThreeA is pretty much my pride and joy. They make some awesome stuff and their World War Robot line is hard to beat. With gritty looking robots and soldiers who look like they were pulled out of some horrific, World War I nightmare, it’s the stuff that makes a collector drool. Their attention to detail, the amount of articulation, and their level of quality is the sort of thing that creates a loyal fanbase. When the company’s co-creator designed a prototype for a 6-inch scale stormtrooper and Boba Fett, it was almost a dream come true. Sadly those figures did not go into production, however, collectors may be getting a second chance of sorts: the Lonely Star Warrior Concept TK.

Three weeks ago, Ashley wood teased some images of stormtrooper helmeted figures. Continue Reading ThreeA’s Nod to Star Wars…
