 Re: new skullwing....for locomoco?
Somehow, Looking at the overall paint job & the back print of the pic, I can't stop thinking of Metallica's - Damage Inc.

 Re: new skullwing....for locomoco?
Is it just me or do these match a bit too much? The "sets" are usually simialar but never the same colors just used different. I can't say I like it too much. Clear red would have been nice too. Not a fan of the copper color either how its used here. Meh, maybe I am getting to picky.

From my uderstanding this is a clear red vinyl, you can kind of tell in this picture from Kaiju Taro Personally I think this red one would look great next to the original red wing and the milky white next to the shake pirate, mmm Pushead xSB goodness.

 Re: new skullwing....for locomoco?
What about those who have the first skullwing, this new one would look just fabulous with it.

 Re: new skullwing....for locomoco?

not sure how i feel about the XV tampo on the back.
the colorway pair compliment each other nicely.
i think i like the white better of the two.

 Re: new skullwing....for locomoco?
This is a nice pair. In the future, I would like a release that does not have the Astrozombies logo on the front.

But IMO it looks best on the white. The quick fade from copper to white makes for a killer contrast. And I prefer the copper shorts on the white to the brown shorts that the red version is wearing.  I like the back print as well.

 Re: new skullwing....for locomoco?
I feel like the white one has a bit too much contrast with the paint. In pictures, I really preferred the white over the red...but in hand, I think the red wins out. The color scheme just seems to work better for me.

 Re: new skullwing....for locomoco?
These wings have a tendency to have too much prints and markings on the body---wish it was more toned down.
