El Acertijo de Coleccion Super Amigos aka Super Powers Riddler
Name:
The Riddler
Origin:
Surfacing in 1989 along with the inferior copies of most of the Super Powers figures, the Riddler figure was exclusive to the Argentinan Super Amigos.
Figure Stats:
He is a repainted Green Lantern figure that was only released in South America. The Riddler's lower legs are a slightly different color green than the rest of him.
Comments:
This line is one of the rarest of Pacipa's Super Amigos line, the Argentinian version of Kenner's Super Powers Collection.
I was inspired to make this just a few weeks ago by my Facebook friend Mike Miller. He made one, along with the Super Powers "gold" Superman, that was just spot on. But, I didn't want to make an exact copy of his (he made a Mego-style version of the actual figure) so I made a Mego-style version of the image used for the packaging.
El Acertijo is built on a ZICA body with painted hands; head is a repro Mattel GL head painted by me; boots Castaway Toys; Suit by yours truly; belt from CTVT; and boot decals by me.
here with his crossword puzzle goons
nabbed by Batman and Robin
never thought I would own six variations of the Riddler in the Mego format
and here is Mike Miller's version that inspired me to make mine
I hope you enjoy my obscure villain variant customs as much as I do, and, as always, thanks for looking!
Peace, Love, and Megos!
