    Custom Super7 retro floating Orko.

    It kinda bothered me the S7 Orko didn't come with a flight stand. Since he is always floating and so short. If any figure needed a flight stand, it was him.

    Now, Shadow Weaver comes with a flight stand but it makes her tower over the other figures. So, my Dad kindly drilled a very neat and perfect sized hole underneath Orko to match Shadow Weaver's flight stand for me. Works like a charm and doesn't damage Shadow Weaver's stand. Orko's wheels still move (as good as they every did, anyways) and the small hole on the bottom doesn't show if you want to display him without the stand.

    Again, big thanks to my Dad. I am no good with power tools.

    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...

    Nice! Good on your Dad! They sure come in handy!

    I see they gave Adam a show-accurate pink vest, instead of the maroon one Mattel went with. I preferred the maroon, actually!

      They sure do. My Dad is a whiz with power tools. He made my Mom and Sis little wooden display cabinets for their Hot Wheels for Christmas.

        ^Wow, nice!

        My Dad still talks about repairing my Megos when I was a kid. A lot of my figures had nuts and bolts in place of plastic leg pins.
