I've literally only just noticed that the cardback for the Red card series has a mock-up of Mr. Perfect that doesn't resemble his actual figure. Probably already discussed at some point, but does anyone have any details on that? To the best of my knowledge, the black and white picture was always “wrong” on every card back and not just the red card. He was leaning and appeared to have a shorter or differently-angled arm. It bothered me as a kid but I actually preferred the execution of the figure much more.  What does change is his singlet being colored in at times:   Excellent! Thanks for that, great post. I'd honestly never noticed it before, like ever. I only noticed when I was looking at a Red card earlier, which is why I mentioned the Red cards. Yeah I really like the look of that mock-up, I wonder if anyone has ever made a custom based on it, if not, I'd love to see one. It's got me wondering whether there are any other figures that didn't quite resemble their drawing on the cardback. 🤔 |

Does anyone know of any sellers on eBay who make the clothes for Hasbro figures? Bret's jacket etc.
I used to know of a couple but not these days.

Is the Giant Gonzalez bigger than Andre and the rest? I'm only curious as I've never seen a Giant Gonzalez in hand and I'm in the market for one right now.

Yes, Giant Gonzalez is bigger than all other figures. Andre comes up to his eyebrows, while the rest of the figures come up to his bottom lip. |

Decided that over the next few months I'm going hard at trying to get a complete loose set. I've got a Detolf ready for them and I've got nearly 20 already so I'm on my way!

Andre and Gonzalez are actually right next to each other in my display so you can see them in scale with both Mattel retros and Jake for normal scale |

Got in the first two of my Hasbro buys as I try and go for a complete loose set. Started out with two of my absolute favourites!   |

Nope, nope and never say never. What about Funskools? Nope, just the original Series. |
