    The Falcon Comic Version

    I had seen someone post about The Falcon in a Facebook group and Paul Clarke had mentioned he came with two type of hands. One normal and the other hairy type hands. So i got to thinking why not white Joker hands and a cuff to depict how he looks in the comics. I also added the yellow to his boots to match the yellow on his mask. I like this version. I also discovered a spot-on match for fixing his nose. Tamiya Color XF-9 Hull Red is a spot on color match. He had the white showing through from paint rub. Tamiya is not water based so be sure to grab their X-20A Thinner

      Love it!
      I never understood why Falcon wasn’t given white Joker hands to begin with.

        Love the white cuffs, too. Adding Joker hands to my vintage Falcon was something I did as a pre-teen.

            I cut slits in the gauntlets so the wings had some room and put them on, then add the white Mego joker hands last

              Now that's the Falcon, beautifully done and I agree, Mego Falcon would have looked better with white Joker hands
              instead of Soldier Ape hands. Great custom and I also like the idea of the yellow paint on the boots to match
              the mask. A+ job.

                  Thanks. Yea the yellow on the boots add more dimension to it IMO. The claws in the boot design get lost without it.

                        Thank you for the compliments. It actually took awhile to grow on me because I was so used to looking at him with the brown hands. But I like this look more now
