    I flirted with completing the set and taking some old school 35mm shots of these claiming I found them in a folder, well I may still do that in October for the blog. I may still do that, we're a small group.

      Now that is so very cool! It has such a vintage feel to it. You could have passed that off as a legitimate item and I would have believed you. Great work Brian! And I like the fact you kept the paints close to how AHI would have done it. Nice touch.

                You would never know that was a custom. If there was a category for Custom of the Year this would get my vote. It's brilliant. This opens up a whole new world.
                If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                  Very convincing! You nailed the AHI style. It is strange that AHI did not make these for real.
