Founded in 2008 by ThreeZero’s Kim Fung Wong and artist Ashley Wood, threeA have gone from strength to strength to become one of the world’s leading art toy manufacturers.
Focusing on anime inspired 1/6th scale figures and post-apocalyptic robots, threeA’s attention to detail surpasses anything seen in the mass production toy industry thus far; from the perfectly scaled clothing of the Adventure Kartel line, to the photorealistic battle scars of the World War Robots, each piece has been lovingly designed by Wood, making threeA’s creations some of the most desirable in the scene.
Always pushing forward, the company is involved in a huge amount of projects, including new lines, collaborations, clothing and exhibitions. Here’s a quick run down of their latest / forthcoming work:
threeA x Linkin Park: A Thousand Horizons
In a collaboration with Linkin Park, threeA are producing a limited edition WWRp Bramble robot, celebrating the band’s 2010 album “A Thousand Suns”, and the recent launch of A Thousand Horizons, a charity art show / initiative benefiting the victims of the March 11th earthquake and tsunami disaster. The figures are available to preorder through threeA’s web store until September 28th (production finish / mail out set for January 2012). Unlike most of Ashley Wood’s lines, the Linkin Park WWRp Bramble’s edition number will be set at the amount that are ordered by that date, so any collectors wishing to purchase should act fast!
threeA x Bandai: Zaku
Featured in the latest issue of 3AVOX, threeA’s newly established magazine, is one of the companies biggest collaborations to date. Taking on the mighty Bandai, Ashley Wood has created an astonishingly intricate re-interpretation of Gundam’s most feared nemesis; Zaku. Pre-orders for the beautifully weathered robot will be available some time in November, with a Zaku VOX special planned for the new year.
threeA ‘Real Steel’ Collaboration
Also featuring in last month’s edition of 3AVOX is threeA’s latest project with Dreamworks. Working on a range of limited toys for the studio’s upcoming robot boxing film “Real Steel” starring Hugh Jackman, threeA have released several sample shots to whet our appetites. A final reveal, plus release date, should be available through their site soon.
threeA’s Adventure Kartel: The Finger Gang
Already a huge success, threeA’s prestigious Adventure Kartel line will be spawning yet another series in the form of the Finger Gang. Presented in 11 different colourways (similar to the Ankou-Ex figure pictured), the toys will come ‘blind boxed’, with a Faux Retailer Carton Set also available containing all 11 figures.
threeA gives us a little backstory on the new design-
“TheFinger Gang blow into town, their boss King Thumb wants some attention from Cherry Shadow, the alter ego of Little Shadow. Apart from Little Shadow being kinda pissed that some lowlife bot wants some, king EMO himself, Tommy Mission (part time boyfriend and nutbag to Shadow) doesn’t take it too well either. Rev up the TEARS !”
threeA’s ReVenture HK 2012
HK Venture, threeA’s annual event, has been confirmed for April 27th – May 4th 2012. Entitled “ReVenture HK”, the show is set to feature a select few artists with various threeA customs, Ashley Wood’s latest toy lines, plus the chance to score some of the company’s most exclusive products. Check the Tru:Teknology Files in coming months for artist, venue and product confirmations, which will be posted as soon as we get them.
