Post The Story of Milton
I must admit I am a great fan of the Milton character and I am missing info about the first releases of this little guy, especially these versions :
Clear Red
Solid Red
Solid Pastel Blue

So if anybody here can enlighten me about how they were released (official release, special release during a show, SSSS...) I would be really grateful :)

Moreover even if I assume that the Solid Black one is from SSSS, what about the Solid Purple ?
Thanks in advance !

I thought solid black was SSSS, unpainted red was in lucky bag and clear red was a lottery prize/giveaway that night and for sale later. Purple with blue spray was a regular release.

Those three were a gift. I think it had something to do with my extreme good looks.

I thought it was offered up at the same time as the unpainted light blue. At least I think that's when I got mine.

I snagged the blue, red and clear red all together online . . . pretty sure there was one in the Lucky Bags which kinda points to it being black!

In all honesty, I would have to go back and check. They all came in around the same time, and we used them for different reasons -none of which were premeditated. Regardless, the first four are all unpainted: Black, light blue, opaque red and translucent red.

The purple unpainted was a test shot for the production run that was given to connel for being connel. If it turns up at Mandarake, we will have issues.
