    A Tale of Two Flashes

    I've had these guys done for a pretty lonf while and just now got around to taking pics. One turned out pretty well, one not so much.

    First off, I have to give a HUGE shoutout to thatbatmanguy for creating the coolest emblems and vinyl accessories in the industry, period. These figures would completely suck without them.

    I had no idea what happened this week with head discussions, so this is ill-timed, but it is what it is. One of these has a Next2lastmohican head and the other is Juanimal. I understand there was an altercation regarding these, so I apologize in advance if these pics reopen wounds.

    FIrst one is a follow-up to the one I made for the Meet auction. I used Mohican's head, which is of incredible quality BTW. Terrific sculpt. I had an extra shiny suit sewn so here he is.











    Here's the second one that uses Juanimal's head. It has an elongated jawline, but not bad. He looks like he just pooped himself in fear, but that could be from a crappy paint job courtesy of myself.

    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

    If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

    Nice job Scott on both of them...

    yeah, what I've been told is that the bottom one is a distorted "re-cast" of the top one.

        the next2lastmohican's one is a better looking Flash. most of Juanimail's ended up a bit onthe thin side.

            I have to agree, while the first one has some Flashiness(LOL!) to it, the second one looks very MEGO friendly! I like them both. Nice job.

                Great job. I really like the first Flash, his head and suit are killer!

                  Both look great, but I prefer the head on the first one
