    Appoligies Jim I missed your post @#48 ( do like the way you can refer back to a post )yes Sir had mentioned that as well.

    Tonight I repainted the helmets back to grey. Did the uniforms on the pair that I will use from Bobby and started the set above .
    Plenty of seam lines. Took some time to clean two of the figuresc up. Those two are glued and resting overnight. Looks like gardening in the rain tomorrow morning, rather go in the am and then have the pm free .

        Hi John,
        I've just dug a bit deeper and this figure set was initially issued in 1974 and retooled and released under a different product code in 1988, I hope that clears it up.

          Peter, Tim and Jason .
          Interesting that you all had them , and think before the date given on scalemates, I will check tomorrow again to make sure that wasn't an update to the moulds .

                That's a good set...I'm currently using that jumping figure for my Pacific dio. You'd have recognised it on the MM post. He's still without bulked up sleeves and pants...

                  Richard,
                  Thanks for that, find these large images very unforgiving on my mine :flushed: He has a great action pose.

                              Looking somewhat odd with out the hemets and equipment. Total 14 . Tomorrow should bring some more painting . I'm going to carry one doing the kit left off the figure. Much easier for me .โ˜บ
                              Any comments welcome , abuse , advice .
                              Thanks for looking in .
