Search and destroy, f***ing smash its face in, that's what we do. We stand between you and f***ed, we didn't look away and hope they would go away, you said we were s***, trash on the street and now we are your kings.
GOD SAVE THE MORTIS QUEEN, FOR SHE AIN'T NO HUMAN BEING!

1998. Albion City, Europa Union. The Battle of Manchester has entered its 1000th day. Samael "The Devil" Bridger's Palace of Thorns is being besieged from all sides by the coalition army led by Lady Sham which comprise the ICG (Independent Countries Group) and the Neo Zoroaster Movement factions. Yet, the stronghold of the Archduke still holds, its defences dug in deeply. Waves after waves of the rebel bots lead the assaults. Lady Sham summoned her reinforcement - the Tomorrow Kings and Queens. These are amongst the last generation of the famed replicants given birthed via the DNA Organ machine in vitro within Hatchery 51 using the gene seeds. A group of these super-warriors have been sent by Luthor Bean Jr. from Leviathan 1 to reinforce Lady Sham's army. They move in with speed and agility blurry to the eyes of a normal human. Neural mapped to suit Lady Sham's preference, these replicants throw themselves at the defences, obliterating it. Carving out a path for the Lady to enter the main gate of the palace, the TKs and TQs fight the loyalist bots and defend the gap in the defence breach simultaneously. The replicant warriors move like a wraith, the bots could not re-act in time. As Lady Sham enters the palace, the Archduke Bridger is shaking in fear and begins to summon help from the Warp. The cost would be high, for invoking the mightiest of the Dark Gods of Chaos for direct intervention and assistance from the Immaterium would be no less than millions of souls.

This is the Bambaland version of the UKTK. The first version, with blue shirt, was an exclusive for ToyConUK in April 2014 of which a few were put up for auction at eBay with 100% proceed to Cancer Research. I am excited, needless to say, when 3A announced the Bamba version, called the Search and Destroy edition. This is one of the most unique TK in collection, based on the punk subculture movement. Mohawk hair, leather jacket, tartan pants, studded braces/suspenders and fox tail. Alas, this TK also marked the debut of what I personally call the "brinjal face", shoehorn headsculpt (the other being the Thiddy TK). Honestly in hand, it is not that bad though. The QC concern continue, with the left arm joint coming loose and pop out from the moment I un-box it. Luckily, it could be attached back. The two swords are held by loops which came loose and I had to re-tie it. Anyhoo, a great addition to the TKs collection.
