    Correct Comic Book Version of the Falcon - Done Vinny Style ;)

    Correct Comic Book Version of the Falcon - Done Vinny Style

    Here is how Mego should have made The Falcon (IMO)

    First I used a Doc Mego Body - Thanks Doc
    2nd - The correct suit - with NO sleeves. George made me a Falcon Suit a few weeks back - I got it and loved it. I than contacted him to help me out to make the proper suit with no sleeves - and he came through with flying colors - Thanks George!

    I added a pair of Cast Away White Gloves and tacked the wings to the gloves.

    I repainted the head to match the body. It is a pinch off - but I'll take it (I tried it a few times. a few came out to light, a few to dark) I than stripped it down and tried again. The color is pretty darn close to the body.

    The Back drop is from ToyRooom. I asked him to make me these 2 pack cards of Cap & The falcon. Thanks Ant!) As always he came through with flying colors. This is the same card I have been using for these 2 packs.

    This falcon will be stuck onto the card once I finish upgrading a Capt to go with him.

    Thanks for looking
    Enjoy!

        Fantastic! This is the kind of improvement I'd like to see with the new Marvel sets....mostly original with some tweaks.

          I have never noticed that Mego goofed on his outfit before.

                  Thanks guys

                  It will be hard to keep this pace up.

                  I have a handfull that are still in different stages - Once I finish those up I think I will need to take a few months off LOL!
                  Plus might have to rework the collection a bit, 2 packs are just all over the place now. I have to find a way to squeeze more shelves in
