4-Up Hardcopy and Silicon Mold for Micro Collection X-Wing Pilot Figure | |
I've always liked this figure because it's posed as though caught in mid barf. You'd think the Rebels would recruit fighter pilots of heartier constitution, or at least provide them with a bag or something to yuke into. Dogfighting TIE Fighters and blowing up the Death Star is stomach-turning work, apparently.
The green item is a 4-up hardcopy prototype of the figure. For more information, reference Michael Mensinger's brief-but-informative write-up here. Behind it is a silicon mold used to make hardcopies of this figure. In fact, it's a good bet it was used to make the figure posed with it. Josh has put together an impressive run of material related to the Micro Collection X-Wing. You can see more of it here. |
