 FC Skull Pirate This one's already gone but what do people think of it? It's obviously not the pure black:

Hmmm. I'm kind of undecided.
Nice to finally see some of the details at least and I do like the aged quality to this paint job. Looks more like an artifact or something.

It definitely looks like it needs it's left arm posed in the right spot to stand.
Like this colourway too.

I really like it, probably more than a solid black colorway.

I like it too. This colorway has a kind of ghostly feel to it. I thought the same thing about the SKULL Pirate being able to stand.

it looks like a paint rub: paint a black figure white, then rub most of the white off with a cloth while the paint is wet... leaving paint in the details...

Not into the figure, but the paint job IS nice. I wouldn't mind seeing a Skullbee with that kind of approach.

I love it. The paint reminds me of a white stencil on the back of a black leather jacket. It looks kinda punk rock is what I guess I'm trying to say.

you got to have a friend in japan get a membership. I had one for a while through my friend girlfriend, but when I started working at super7 my friend did not renew my membership cause he thought I would get all that stuff. well this job is good, but it ain't that connected. FC releases are only for FC members. THATS IT!
I still get the annoucements, but it hurts to see them. I missed out and the cocobat 8man, skull pirate and these obake dog prisoner clothes sets. AHHHH!

I don't think you guys will ever have any competition for Skull Pirates from me - just don't dig that H8 crouch look.
Although I agree the paint rub makes it more interesting.
