In this special episode, I'm proud to present an in-depth interview and discussion between IDW CEO Ted Adams and the man himself, ASHLEY WOOD!

This interview was recorded live at the 2011 San Diego comic con, and is the first of several episodes that will feature Comic-Con coverage. Please sit back, relax, and prepare yourself for an hour of incredible discussion on Ash's history as a comic artist and designer, the origins of threeA, the upcoming film projects, and what lies in the future for threeA!

Episode 16: Customization

Back again!

In this episode, I'm joined by legion members Anubis2Night and Bubo to talk about a subject near & dear to the heart of many 3A fans: Toy Customization. We take a look at what drives some fans to modify their designer toy pieces, adding their own personal touches to create new and unique pieces of designer toy art. We also take a look at some of the techniques and materials used to create both custom and scratch-built figures.



And since this podcast is first and foremost about threeA, I also take a look at one of the latest releases from the Hatchery: The Adventure Kartel Bleak Mission figure.




Thanks goes out to Anubis2Night and Bubo for participating in the customization discussion, as well as to YOU for checking out the podcast.

The ranks of threeA fans have been growing like crazy. On the official threeA discussion board, it seems like more and more folks are dropping in daily. Many of them have questions about the company; how it started, who's behind it, and so on. So, we've decided to do an "Introduction to threeA" episode.

Our goal- to bring new fans up to speed on the origins ofone of the most cutting-edge designer vinyl companies around: threeA.


This episode also features a review of the recently released threeA posters, submitted by new threeA Radio contributor, The Monarch.
