can you belive this???

Are you mad? The ones with the "crap" hands are the decent ones!



They have FAR superior paint jobs, and look menacing as hell, whereas the later ones are a slightly more pink colour, with blurrier logos, and ALWAYS have a downs-syndrome look around the eyes. OK, they have better hands and thicker soles, but their heads are smaller! The peak is also less defined on the face visor.

I had one of them as I kid, and he was instantly renamed as Red Dufus. And you'll never find one with black gloves.

Ooooohhh controversial Baron!

One man's trash, another man's treasure I guess.




I know it shouldn't have, but this made me laugh a bit -

ALWAYS have a downs-syndrome look around the eyes

SO wrong.

A Shad is a Shad in my eyes! I've got a mixed bag of them including some German ones. Just wish they were cheaper! Unlike those lots the other week that went for close to £100.

I have two of each version (well, one is Red Vulture) and prefer the first Red Shadow style with the bigger helmet and logo. He has a far more sinister 'face' while the newer one looks a little 'goofy'. Pity that my two 'newer' ones are the mint figures...

Paul, I have 7 of these Red Rejects. Would you be up for swapping them for 7 "crap" Shadows?

Although fairly pointless, I'll swap them with you Baron if you want?

As long as the paintwork on the helmets are all ok?
