I mean, this is superb. The packaging itself was worth the admission fee. Absolutely wonderful.
And the figure itself... I mean you’re mad. But a wonderful mad.
Spooky Joe!

I’ll post pics of mine once I’ve got a chance to get to the laptop. (The web interface on my phone isn’t great.)

The figures! I couldn't get all 14 the *same* but they are all spychangers, and like Powerdasher before him, Spooky Joe is a SHAPESHIFTER. Some of them are a bit still/loose and I had a few problems near the end, but I learnt a ridiculous amount that will help me in the future! They are varnished too, though with matt varnish. I also rechromed all the wheels on them!   |

Behold, THE POWER OF THE GHOSTMASTER!! (It's actually yellow, green and blue but the green and yellow turned out quite similar. If I use the same glow in the dark stuff in the future, I'd do it in smaller discrete patches, as it turns out it needs to be really thick to work properly. Also it wouldn't airbrush as the paint has little crystals in it, so the finish isn't as nice as I'd have liked!) You need to hold them quite close to a bright lamp and then plunge into darkness, then it'll glow like mad. BADGE TOO PINWIG    |

He's a Shapeshifter! That's inspired. Utterly inspired. Right. Youngest! TURN OUT THE LIGHTS!!! You do need to hold it up right close to a bright light first, they're not too good at just absorbing ambient light. Stuff like a super bright lamp is best. |
