I fancy putting together a run of Vivid Imaginations Captain Scarlet mocs, Yup had those as a kid including the uniform.... Just a bit of fun really but ideally id like to get hold of Captain Scarlet,Captain Blue, Captain Black, Captain Green and any of the angels.

Worth a shot asking here first, anyone got some?

Only a couple of vintage items in the alcove of terror but I thought it was still worth a share

Thanks guys for the comment and I've always wanted an Alien figure and this one came up at the right price although I did do some work fixing his arms as the bands had gone (common on these).

Thanks guys for the kind comments and it's still hard to believe that Kenner thought releasing an 18" figure based on the film Alien was a good idea for kids back in the day lol! I get that they might not have known what the film was totally about but you've got to wonder how this made it to retail without someone flagging it?!

It's just a shame that the 3.75" figures didn't also make it to release but at least we did sort of get them years later through Super7.

I'm still glad that this one figure did make it out there though

Yeah it would never happen in today's world! Looks super though and a really nice piece in your collection.

New addition for the MOTU collection

Vintage damaged Zoar box with no insert and a damaged Zoar with one foot.

Luckily had a spare Zoar complete so worked on the box, starch and iron and made a card insert for the box ( which was better for display but stabilised the box further as well)

Happy with how this has turned out ended up in total costing just short of £40 to get this in the collection.

 

[Palifan]

The MOTU really does keep growing! Great addition as ever Mike and you really are going to need some more display space soon

Very nice Michael Sith I remember seeing the Zoar on ebay. Glad you got it looks great.

Love that, nice find with the sealed Panthor. I have both Panthor and Battle Cat boxed, they're both reseals but the boxes are in lovely condition, took me ages to find the empty boxes, even imported the Panthor one from the US as these are so bloody difficult to find in even half decent condition. I found a mint never played-with loose Panthor and Battle Cat to put in them and resealed them, even went as far as to source an elastic band which looked almost the same as the original to put around Battle Cat's helmet.

The box art on these are superb! I never get bored of them.

Nice work on the insert, looking good!

They look great subzero I see you have a MOC He-Man as well! Very nice. The Panthor looks really mint.

Thanks. Yeah that MOC He-Man is my pride and joy, I did also have a Skeletor MOC in mint condition, kinda regret selling that one as prices now are mad and are even harder to find sealed in nice condition. The Panthor is spotless and never actually been played with, almost not a single mark on it, just a tiny nose rub from where it's been rubbing against the cardboard insert inside it's original box over the years. When I bought Panthor it did come in it's box but it was pretty much destroyed so had to replace it.

 

[Michael Sith]

Great job on the Panthor and battlecat 8)

He Man Moc is a beauty as well 8)

Think we may need a MOTU thread!
