If you follow the Ashley Wood created World War Robot line you know that the ‘Dropcloth’ model of robot has recently seen wide release. I picked one up, and it’s a great toy, but I’m almost more excited by this image of the prototype 1/12 scale WWRp version of the Dropcloth (he’s the red one) with the rest of the 1/12 scale prototypes from this line.
I love the look of the more human scale and proportion of this guy next to the other bots and the one human character released so far. I can’t wait to build an army of these suckers. It’s hard to tell for sure from the pic, but it looks like the fingers will remain individually articulated. I wasn’t sure they would be able to pull that off on a hand so small, but it looks like they did it. According to Wood, the WWRp droplcoths will be sold in sets with other bots and WWR characters. For example, a human soldier ‘bot sniper’ would be sold with his companion dropcloths. No ETA on these guys yet, but watch 3A toys forum news for more info.
