The sophomore figure in
threeA's officially licensed line of
2000AD figures is Sam Slade, aka "Robo-Hunter!" Originally created for the classic British comic anthology by John Wagner and Ian Gibson, this wry curmudgeon is a cigar-smoking bounty-hunter who tracks down and generally executes renegade robots. This rendition is a bit of an amalgamation from the comics, taking an overall visual — including his blaster's design and the look of his trusty Robo-meter Cutie — from the
Verdus storyline, this version also includes the Cuban cigar bot named Stogie, who did not appear until much later on. All rendered perfectly in 1/12th scale, "Robo-Hunter" will be released on April 30th, 2015 in the
Bambaland online store for a mere $50 apiece (worldwide shipping included).
