Cold Merde in Action Portable by ThreeA


Months ago I bought a 1/6-scaled Cold Merde, a very cool variant of Merde Mission. He is the father of Bleak Mission and grandfather to the protagonist Tommy Mission in Adventure Kartel Universe from 3A/Ashley Wood. 

It’s my first carded 1/6 figure and I’m planning to keep it mint on card, but the figure’s awesome design, background story (scarce as it is) and posing possibilities makes it very tempting to open.

News from 3A came weeks later, a set of 1/12 figures (Action Portables as they present it) will be sold thru retailers and a Cold Merde will be included, so thank you JC! That info keeps me from tearing my beloved 1/6 Cold Merde from its carded place.

Now I got the 1/12-scaled Cold Merde:

Size Comparison

Card is very cool!

Back of the card which shows artworks of the other figures in the set.

Cold Merde is ready!

Back of that awesome looking coat.

Look at that detail (and that Cuban Cigar)!

One of the issues I have are the glued/stuck guns in the holsters, so we got only two guns for him. 
The 1/6 version got all the guns removable/usable.

Without the coat, Cold Merde still gives that awesome style!

Accessories:

  • Winter Coat
  • 2 Guns
  • 9 Holsters with Guns (non-removable)
  • 6 Belts/Straps
  • very large cigarette or a white Cuban Cigar?

Cons:

  • The non-removable guns in the holsters
  • Left hand can't hold a gun properly.

Pros:

  • Very good details
  • Awesome weathering (obviously it's ThreeA)
  • Playability is great
  • Tight-joints
  • No paint problem 

Value:

  • $40-$45 (P1700-P2200) Reasonable Priced!

Overall:

  • "This figure is very nice, better if you get it with the set, which is more cheaper and you will also get the other 13 Adventure Kartel Action Portable figures (you can't beat that!). I highly recommended it for your collection (even if you are just starting), the figure works well displayed alone or better in a diorama along side the other ThreeA 1/12 figures."
