Spot on work. That yellow paint must have been a cast iron b-tch to paint. A perfect 25th take on an original figure.

It wasn't that bad on the white of Snow Job but it was on the orange of BBQ.

I really wish Hasbro will make an Airtight.

Looks great! I really like Airtight. I wish Hasbro would make one and Dial Tone and Lowlight and I would have all of my favorites. Sci-Fi and Iceberg would be cool too though.

A travesty that this fig has not been mass produced.
