Hey Al,
Thanks for another detailed review.
The figure looks A1 and the alternate arm is a bonus but where are the tanker guys wearing BD or denims ?
Maybe it's me but there seems to be tons of resin figures wearing the "pixie" suit but very few full figures wearing warmer weather gear.
Plastic figures like MiniArt's look great but nothing beats the detail of resin.
That's my rant of the week !!
Cheers

Hi John,

Thanks. Resicast have a good few tankers with BD if you check out their site and as you know there are several by Ultracast too. Not saying a few more wouldn't go amiss and who know now MiniARt have done a set in Denims they might do one in BD too.

Cheers
