 Re: threeA Toys
Buying 3A is really hard to do. My interests in toys change so often that buying something now and (maybe) getting it 6 months later is CRAZY. With that said, I ordered two random portable zombs. I’m pretty sure I’ll still like zombies 6 months from now. Then again, I’m sure I’ll still have an eBay account 6 months from now... just in case.

 Re: threeA Toys
yeah, zombkin DID look hella cool... but i just couldn't bring myself to do it. (partially because of the wait, partially because of my feelings about ashley wood.) but i'm content to live vicariously through the pictures of others when it comes to 3A toys these days...

 Re: threeA Toys
yes, there is criticism on the scale of the hands vs. the tiny head on this guy. It's highly stylized, but I see why someone wouldn't like the scale.

 Re: threeA Toys
I do bill me later with paypal, so I don't have to pay for few months. Ends up being pretty close to the shipping date when payment is due.

I've never tried that, but for something like this, it makes good sense! You've had good luck with it? No extra charges or anything? I like it a lot. It's basically like a credit card, but you get a grace period of a few months to pay it off with no interest. You do however, have to make a minimum payment depending on what your balance is. Also, you have to spend a minimum of $199 to qualify for the grace period.

 Re: threeA Toys
Yeah, they are sending it out to everyone. Same address as the original shipment, so you don't have to do anything.

Any source of info or pic of new body vs old? Sorry, I don't really keep up with the TQ info. I do know that the current TQs have posing problems, and the new one is supposed to be a lot more posable.

 Re: threeA Toys
Not sure if you got the vanilla TQ as well, but they are sending replacements for those as well. Let me know if you want to get rid of it, a friend is looking for one for a custom
