| Post subject: | VINTAGE INSPIRATION No.2 |
This is the cyborg "RED BARON" 8 1/2 inch vinyl made in 1973 by BULLMARK. Another one of my favs. The see thru vinyl reveals a highly detailed 3D vinyl or plastic bio-mechanical skeleton inside. The body is like a ship in a bottle, I can not figure out how they got all that stuf inside. Clearly a possible inspiration to some of our newer figures.

That's a real fine figure Bob! What happened to his right hand? Looks missing. |

Hi Mori, The inside arm has sliped up into the shoulder area. Of corse I didnt notice it till after I took the photos. I have to heat it up and drop the arm down a bit. |

Beautiful figure ! I think this is kinda the look they were after with the new Zaragon, the one with the see thru chest. From the pics i've seen it did not work very well. I hope they can make it better. |

You're right there Shifta. Not enough colour contrast in the inner piece and the outer vinyl. This guy is damn nice. |
