[QUOTE="db94, post: 564237, member: 4318"] He had an amazing set of lights, very screen accurate but no movement. His head could be turned manually. He had a wooden frame and fibreglass body but it was the weathering/paint job that made him look so good.

I bought him 1 day after my 50th Birthday and retirement - family convinced me to treat myself but after a few weeks I started to regret buying him, pretty soon I’d convinced myself that it was a mistake, caused a few domestics between me and my wife which kinda ruined it for me, a prop (no matter how cool) isn’t worth losing sleep over so I sold him on. Maybe someday I’ll try my hand at building my own. If you are thinking of doing one yourself ping me a pm, I’ve lots of info that will help (y) [ATTACH type="full"]186035[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]186036[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
