I found this at a yard sale. Didn't notice the interesting sleeve color until I compared him to my other one. Does this happen frequently with this suit?

He's been sunbathing..."Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"
In the Southeast Pacific, lies the sunken city of R'Leyh. There lies C'thulhu waits to return to our world with the other Great Old Ones. A hideous creature of enormous size and alien power, it waits for it's time to return patiently. For it has all the time in the world while it waits for the stars.

I have never seen a gray varient. Is the sleeve still brown down beneath the cuffs?? Hard to tell in the pic. Nice find. I can't remember the last time I saw a mego in a yard sale. I don't think anybody collected them here where I live. What did you pay for him??
I agree with merlyn, looks like sun damage."Steel-like jaws clacked away, each bite slashing flesh from my body - I used my knife and my hands, and when they were gone, my bloody stumps - and yet the turtles came."Comment

Yes under the cuffs it is still brown. I thought it was odd though that the pants didn't change color if it were sun damage. This was a friend's yardsale and I bought a whole "lot" of toys. He was in the box along with a Remco McDonald's Ronald & Grimace. I paid $100 for the entire box because it was mostly Little People stuff.Comment

You can actually see a bit of the brown at the cuffs in the picture. A very interesting find. I'm surprised by the fading, but I had not seen this before. Has it been seen on other Apes?WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.Comment

Nice find! I like the contrast in colors.

If you could make the leotards match the tunic sleeves that would look really cool. Your own personal "variation".

Did you clean him up after you purchased him because WOW he looks awefully minty. Also would you disclose how much you paid?? I never find Megos when I'm out "garage sailing"

I have a Klingon in one of my parts boxes that did the same thing, only mine did it on the pants too.Comment

I haven't done anything with it, that's the way it looked when I found it in the box. I can't determine the exact amount I paid because it was included in a box of toys that cost $100.Comment

I like it -- I think it looks cool. Strange how the pants didn't fade as well.
