    What outfit is this, AJ?

    I found this outfit among a AJ lot. Does anyone know what it is from, can't seem to find it in the museum gallery.

    as far as I know it's not an original AJ outfit, not sure from what figure it comes from...

      Well spotted Clemso, the colour of the pants on the one in my picture is slightly lighter than the one you posted. The one in my picture is an AJ one, taken right out of the box.

          Wow, well this is a variant on the AJ fishing outfit that i have never seen, different shirt and trousers. Is it possible to get a close up of yours Kat?
          Does he come with black skinny boots and the regular fishing hat.

              If it were just a different plaid shirt, I might not call it a variant. Those pants, however, are quite different than the ones I've come across. Cool find.

                Mine has a torn tag on the trousers, can't read it. Kat's is straight from the original AJ box, so she will be able to confirm.
                Kat what style AJ box did it come in?

                  Cat is that shirt the same as yours? Your picture is small but the pattern looks a little different to me.....

                  Keep in mind they used whatever materials and left over part of what was left towrds the end of the AJ run slaped them together and whala! Variants....

                    What about the shirt Clem, is there a tag?

                      As far as I know, mine has an AJ tag. However, I can't confirm this at the moment as I am in the US and my collection is of course, in Australia.

                      I think my shirt is a tiny bit different to the one Clem has, just a slight variation.

                        No tag on mine, its in pretty worn shape, they came together in a AJ lot, is all i know. The trousers are very a distinctive design with the one button and not like either boxed fishing trousers or carded, that in it self makes it a variation.

                          Mystery solved "The Adventurer", still a very cool version of the fishing outfit.

                            ^ Well-spotted. I am quite sure mine came in an AJ box though...
