        Good stuff! That blood spitting Gene is pure genius!

        Heh, we have very different fathers, my dad would have thought it was great. He'd probably have more fun with it than I would have.

          The head sculpt is really nice and it's a fun concept but having to play with it with rubber gloves and the risk of staining clothes and even your hands for two days!? They couldn't have found a less harsh dye?
          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

            Hahaha!… more of a blood drip than spit, but none the less dangerous 70's fun.

            I actually find it refreshing that someone built a modern toy, that while collectible is meant to *used* and ultimately ruined. Talk about nostalgia. That's is cool!

                    Still love my Fighting Furies. None survived my childhood (they fell apart), but I managed to get the three pirates again.
                    My original Ghost I bought in Dover, England, and I actually played with that toy on the boat home to Belgium. Seemed appropriate!

                          Can't take credit, Scott and Steve did much of this one. I was working in Calgary all week enjoying their snow and cold.

                            Surfs up Jokers under set looks awesome, can't see Barbara Gordon's face to well but from the looks of it
                            I think it's pretty well done, maybe will see O'Hara with hotdog walkie talkie.
