instead of leviathan in his suit what do you think of seeing him in his q-force uniform that he wears when hes NOT IN HIS DEEP SEA diving suit.

I want leviathan but maybe it would be more useful to have him out of his suit? something we never have gotten thats for sure ???

Yep, that would have been my follow-up suggestion too. Useless toy for a leader figure. I always used :surfer: as a kid.

Yeah :surfer: rocked.

Could never buy the leadened :levi: (before the range disappeared), what did he do with himself in combat? Slow of gait, short of weapon, and lurid of yellow he was somehow seemingly reminiscent of the fatefully late 'Buster' Crabb who got nobbled by the Soviets and who's end, alas, was lately revealed.*

:quick:

*Also back then I thought 'Buster' Crabb was the same dude as super-dude Buster Crabbe, probably cos the latter died in 83 but that fact didn't register in a typical infant inverse-confabulation of fact.

i would love to see all the main AF/Shad figs in 25th style but also something vintage as well.

been thinkin about the convention and think it would be great to have a unique vintage fig for it.
we could maybe run a custom of the month where we each come up with something new but using Palitoy parts and whoever wins, that custom would be used for the convention.

good promotion for us, trigate and AF in general.

any thoughts????

The only problem right now, for us, is not having any vintage figures, why its a lil easyer to do 25th. if i can come acroos some of the vintage, then we can get the look and size the same.

Check the site archives out for photo's and I'm sure that some of us may have a spare figure or two that could be sent on a wee mission to the states! :.

I really don't see the point in casting retro figures instead of new moulds. Straight-arm figures are readily available.

I can't see this appealng to more than 20 people.

i agree - can see the interest in new head sculpts for straight arm / arah / 25th figures maybe but not completely new figures esp with the variety palitoy and others have managed to get out of these moulds...

Well 25th will be first to get done, but I dont want to leave out the vintage guys, even if we only make 20 happy, its 20 more happier then before.

I also should have some wip pics in the next few days...
