Andy, these look as close to production as possible. They are very, very lovely.

I'll use this pic of yours as my reference for making mine as its much better than the Dave Tree original. All the details are there. I might have overlooked the white neck of Boffin if you hadn't spotted him...

Marvellous!

Thanks Paul ! the only thing Im not happy with are Bombadiers arms.

The straight arm Flash figure has 2 pads molded onto his upper arms, I used a swivel arm Flash for this figure which doesnt have the pads for some reason.

The pads I painted on look a bit triangly I may have to add a bit more yellow to fill them out a bit.

Cheers Andy, I never knew of the differences with arms before. I couldn't see the differences listed on YoJoe.

Just checked my Flash that is pencilled in for the Proto SWS treatment and he has the arm pouches! Result!

Totally Awsome Andy well done mate!
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Nice one ! so yours will be one step closer to the original than mine.

Im not going to buy another Flash just for the arms, I will wait until i get one in a job lot or something and replace them later :)

Notice how close the arms are on all those chaps, especially the gloves? Probably why Flash got picked for repaint I guess.
