Slight variance in light flesh tone pvc between Maple Mauler (left, more yellowish ) counter to Hardcore Bruiser (right, slightly more ruddy)
More distinct on Fleshburger Tom, and I guess his slightly more rare pink meat doppelganger Fleshburger Tim ?

DX Empyrean Ninja in two different configurations of the same figure (of many, there are multiple body parts, weapons / accessories available to choose from) I am considering scavenging some filler thigh and upper arm robot pieces to make a second and possibly a third cyborg galaxy-guy.
Tried to capture how this looks by photographing it outside, but phone and my fragile physical form both got too hot to use outside for an extended period. I love the deep red against the glitter filled smoke pvc. Maybe harder to see here are the bright blue eyes.
I generally prefer opaque figures, but this one is pretty uniquely put together and a nice variant to the mortal combat / power ranger sort of look of my others. The fact that the katana, bo staff and swords are all of the same translucent pvc is pretty dang fun.
I am amazed that some of these are still available in the spy monkey store – I’d have thought they would sell out within an hour of release like some of the other designs. Maybe they did a bigger production run?

Sundown Counties /Towns
Again, I wonder how many people have HBO to thank for getting very real black history they wouldn’t have learned otherwise. It amazes me how many people on my friends list didn’t know about “sundown towns”, especially in New England states.
Lovecraft Country did a good job juxtaposing that with the monsters coming out at night in the pilot episode.

We saw the swoop of a bat just two nights ago! I hope it got a nice snack on whatever bugs were out there.

Ratatouille for dinner tonight. Haven’t completed printer build or gone walkies in a few days now, because back is being troublesome. Spending time on heating pad with some meds, and slowly getting better.
Waiting on last element of Allison’s birthday presents to arrive, hopefully in a fairly timely way.
Started Lovecraft Country , first episode is pretty good.

Spy Monkey Creations Desert Sand Ninja
Base (builder) vs paint comparison.
I am so impressed with the detail on both the sculpt and the paint job. Both are cast in the classic “army man sand/desert tan” pvc plastic, but everything is well within lines, no production errors, flash or sprue misprints common in some injection molding and tampo type printing.
I would love to get a set of all battle tribes sculpts in army man green, “flesh”, “firefighter red”, “cowboy yellow”, and “police blue” and “spaceman white” to supplement my “ninja black” ones.
If I had a wishlist for a glyos figure, it would be a battle tribes scale classic fantasy woman series to go with in Rogue, Barbarian and Mage styles. I have plenty of aliens, robots and muscle dudes, it would be nice to add some 1:18 scale human, orc, goblin and dwarf women to the mix.
