Apexworkbot






Damn you, Winson Classic Creation!!!  DAMN you!

You keep coming out with cool stuff I can't afford. This new nugget would be PERFECT for my Apexplorer figure, but at a price point that is well over $200, I just can't bite at this time.

The detail is grand and I love that it falls under a worker rather than a fighter. No guns or weapons, just tools to create and toil. I love my Apexplorer for the same reason and talk to that point with my little girl when she's caught in a stare gazing at it in my display case.

This figure would make a fine addition to any collection!
Especially mine!   :)

About Apexplorers part 2 / Apexworkbot

In 2100, the situation on earth was very bad because of natural disasters.
In October, the “International World Security Alliance” announced that Adam, the founder of the Apempire, will cooperate with the Earth and activate a new project named “Easter Island”. Apexworkbot will be transferred to the earth with construction machineries and industrial rescue techniques.

The “Easter Island” project will be initiated in Sichuan. New kind of metal energy is found. It was defined as innovative renewable energy. It has super kinetic power in pollution-free circumstances. The scientists in the worldwide immediately headed to Sichuan to study on it.

The first priority of "Easter Island" project is to build the “Easter Island Industrial University”. Advanced technology from Apempire enables the crippled to have limb-sparing surgery. They will be well trained to work on the “Easter Island” project.

The Chinese government also built “Noah Plaza”. It can hold hundred millions of population to survive the severe disasters. Noah Plaza is 100 kilometers below the ground, with three shelter floors. Among the layers, there will be highly secured biological persevere center for DNA of different living species.

“Easter Island Industrial University” and “Noah Plaza” is the key to a brighter future for human. I am sure; the Earth's rebirth is just around the corner!

About Double U

The first generation of the Apexworkbot was announced as “Double U – 01”. Double U stands for W, with the meaning of “warmth”.

They have high body temperature, as well as high level of rescue techniques and knowledge, which enable them to work effectively in cold environment. In these extreme frosty and challenging operations, body warmth is the most crucial element to keep ones’ lives.

Dark Knight Figures



I could see the appeal of owning all of these figures and vehicles. It would be a fantastic collection for someone with the space to display them properly. While the price point of HOT TOYS figures is just....well...fucking SILLY, the product is solid and well made with tons of detail and quality put into ever one. If you live in San Francisco and want to see some of these figures up close and unboxed, you have to drop into HEROES CLUB - the owner not only displays many of the figures, but he has a style to his display techniques that does each figure justice. They look amazing.

I own two high end figures. One APEXPLORER figure and an IRON MAN MARK III from Hot Toys. While I love the style of the Apexplorer and the overall look and design, the Hot Toys Iron Man figure really takes things up a notch as far as the detail goes. It's just a different world for the Hot Toys folks. They are amazing.

In other news, it looks like THE BAT will not be produced after all. The size is prohibitive, evidently. Go figure. :)
