The top row is another of the shots I took back
in 2007 when my 1st digital camera was brand new, so macro and flash were still
strangers to me! It's just a look at the different colours Timpo's second version solids came in, with the powder-blue ones
being from the later Action Pack
boxed sets, the brown possibly Toyway
issues (they look too new?) and the red and yellow a bit earlier, but post the
painted-period.
The two lower shots were a couple of pairs
of Action Pack figures I chucked on
feebleBay early in 2009, at 99p each - I
think they sold!
Older figures, newer shots; the solid
bandit to the right has lost his bank-box of plunder, I suspect deliberately,
but it may have broken-off, they are getting brittle now. He came in the mixed,
less than 'junk' lot last year with the Cherilea
saloon and Roman stuff, along with the three first versions - from-hollow-cast
figures.
Interesting that they follow their metal
forbears in having gloss paint, while the 2nd version chap has a matt finish,
aping the Britains Herald figures he
will have been designed/introduced expressly to combat.
