    I was re-arranging my collection and noticed my rainy day pirate is foggy looking compared to my other rainy days. Was it meant to be like this? Does anybody elses look like this? Now that I am looking at them, all the ones that have clear parts seem to be foggy inside. Is it possible for them to have moisture in them?

    But did you notice that it's SHORTER than the other pirates? So's the blood one. Clear vinyl = smaller?

    my rainy had a bad leg, had to put it under some warm water and bend it back into position...I guess the clear pirates are just a bit bent.

    thats the solvents outgassing. if you take it apart, clean it with rugging alcohol and then let it dry out for a few weeks it will clear up for a while

    Yeah...now that I notice, the it's a girl pirate is kinda shorter than my hp. Same thing with the glow...when I stand it next to the blood pirate, I do notice it's a little shorter.....Rusty is the same height as the other painted ones too.

    I don't know how old some of your clear vinyl toys are but about 1 and a half years ago the people who were supplying the crystal clear vinyl in Japan stopped producing it. If you have some older toys compare them to the newer ones, it's painfully obvious. Everything just has an opaque look to it compared to the older releases by all the makers. :(
