Arrived from Hong Kong this morning
I was trying to emulate the Capt Black/ Graveyard segment, from the opening titles of Captain Scarlet, with this photo.
Thanks for looking

Same as mine, Krackers. I wonder if they are B stock? Should be pretty easy to cure tho.

Both of mine are from the con sets and the arms are just too tight a fit for the torso. Ive only moved the arms a few times and ive got some faint rub on my display one. Glad the Shads arms have plenty or room round the socket or they would all have the same issue.

Hi & thanks all,
The red paint is very delicate indeed & my example is showing paint rub ware after very little movement

...it (shoulder paint application) seems more like a poor d.i.y custom job using acrylic paint than a factory produced finish, I'll clean it up myself later.
But apart from that I really like this one, a bit like with the other

con exclusives, the figure looks a whole lot better in the flesh than the publicity photo's @ first suggested

Agreed, Thundershot. I don't mind him even with his brown hair.

..it seems to suit him more than the official pistol/whip combo, which didn't come with this one, & @ the same time seems an appropriate update on the old figures issued weapon
Mind you I've always imagined the Good(bad)
