funny thing is that I ended up screwing up and giving him the wrong test..and he didn't speak up and tell me. he sat there for an hour and a half and took the wrong test, then took the right one a few minutes later. perhaps he was afraid of my voodoo. muahahahaha

I don't reeally think that's a variation... when putting a wash on a figure some will always come out full and others come out light.

We had a weird variation on the 13 inch Violator back in the day, and not many people could even notice it. To start with, they were molded in light grey with a dark wash, and later they were dark grey plastic with a light dry-brush. The only real way to tell them apart (since there were always some darker and lighter) was by looking on the bottom of their feet.

But I like the white wings for customs, and the green wings for the real toy.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I hear ya...I think that's the appeal of the green wings is just their appearance over it being more of a rarity itself. Though I'm sure Ebay will have a few listings stating "Super rare green winged Redeemer! BIN $25" . It's not the same as the walmart raven variation, or the T-800 Endoskeleton chestplate & Fender Hendrix changes either, but hey.

s25 has managed to do something that no other line has done. I have two biker chicks, two redeemers, and if I find the walmart raven, I'll get two of that. if this is a sign of things to come, my books and my figures will soon be fighting for shelf space instead of peacefully coexisting the way they do now. especially with all of the new lines coming out.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">haha, I'm already starting to have those problems myself. Do you buy doubles to keep one clammed and one open? That's usually my reason for getting an extra, if I realllly dig the figure in the first place.

I did get the extra biker chick to repaint, but after deciding that she looks pretty damned cool as is, I'm leaving her MIP. if I ever get my hands on one of those walmart ravens, I'll open that one. I just remembered there's a big walmart that's on the same road as the place I work at, so next time I'm heading to or from work I'm going to go ahead and check that out. hopefully they'll have a raven there. no matter how hard to find that one is, I'm gonna crack that clamshell open. perhaps I'm strange, but I derive a small amount of pleasure from opening a figure that's an exclusive or that's really hard to find. perhaps it's the distant sound of a thousand scalpers crying that does it.

though there are a few things I've left in their packages. I never did open the comic con exclusive AOME twilight frodo/ring wraiths pack I got at WWC last year, and I have an extra s22 original valkerie that's MOC. her fate was to be the same as biker chick's..I was gonna repaint her. she's currently residing in my pajama drawer along with biker chick 2..heh. I'll hang them on a wall when I move out and have more space for it.
