Anyone ever come across a 3 3/4 in a business suit before?
theres a version of tomax/xamot who are in suits.
i think they were released in a 6 pack crimson guard set.

I can see a lot of different influences in that line not just
& Joe one's the dead spit of a biker scout, also a lot of manga type's as well..did this line have a dog in a space suit as well? I'm sure I've seen one someplace..it had a goldfish bowl helmet on, or have I been passive smoking Ross's funny fags again?

Sounds like Snowy from Tintin: Explorers on the Moon

A lot like snowy.. but I think it had a white space suit & was a German shepard? I know it came in a big box set..with pos' a moon buggy & other figures. looked almost retro in a cartoon sort of way.

Found it..it was made by Chap Mei in the Space Quest line, but I can't find a good photo any place.

PIsses me off, there used to be a really good Chap Mei site called
http://www.chapmeitoys.com and then the owner got fed up with it and abandoned the site. The forum is still active:
http://chapmeitoys.proboards.com/index.cgi
He offered to give up the site data to someone if they wanted to take over, I offered over and over again and got nothing. Then somebody else decided to do a new one from scratch, bought the URL to
http://www.chapmeitoys.net and everything.
I got in touch with him and offered to help out, he replied by offering to incorporate BFTB into his site! He's now scrapped the whole thing.
