    Fist Fighting Robin tunic.

    Sometime last year and on the old forum I posted a pic of a UK black switch FF Robin. The tunic didn`t have the regular notch, just a cut out hole as seen below....



    At the time it was dismissed as a home made effort in a regular tunic.

    Well this morning I recieved in the post another UK black switch FF Robin and guess what?... It had the same cut out hole.
    Maybe it is pure coincidence...... or maybe in an attempt to shift the last of the bodies makeshift modifications were made - we`ll never know for sure as carded FF Robins are too few as it is but i`d be interested to know if anybody else has come across this modification, especially on UK FF Robins.

    Remember, we`d never seen armpit holes on FF Superman until recently so anything is possible.

            I had one with the flesh button and the correct tunic. Mine had a nice notch that had a hem and was sewn up and around. Unfortunately I didn't snap any pics, because his cape was really beat.
            A member here bought him, not sure if he still has him.
