                  Thanks everyone , he is indeed amazing , I had him properly out his box yesterday to see what he was really like, and ? what soft as putty so soft all over firm but soft his trunks are perfect and his shape is the same as he left the factory , iv used latex gloves to handle him , i did not attempt to fully stretch him but he can , iv stored him just like his last owner( the guy i got him from was his original stretch) he stored him in his mothers loft for 29 years i did ask about the conditions so i will continue to treat him the same way i wont be removing him every other month nether, but loads of people have asked about this softness , I feel if he is kept the way he has been for the last 30 years then i see no problem in him lasting another 30 + years incredible he has lasted all this time , I will say though up until yesterday I only touched him in his box but needed to inspect him all over iv taken front and back shots and a video of him stretching this will be enough to please me once again people of mego thanks for all the great feedback it made the effort of finding him loads better and more fun , its no fun if you cant share iv got a video of him on youtube and iv had 4 emails asking to buy him but sadly he stays with me id dont intend to sell him would i even get another one ? as good oh iv seen some horrific ones on ebay .....
