Dude I just found my old RGB toys that were boxed up at my dad's house, but they are gross (my dad smoked in the house so discolored etc plus I actually played with 'em) so from your experience what kind of paint is the best for repainting the Kenner Firehouse, Ecto 1 and RGB figures?

My Kenner RGB Ecto is terrible (I played in the bathtub with it as a kid) I'm thinking of painting it up like when Ray first bought it, "You can't park that here!" and repainting the Firehouse similar to yours but with the basic GB white banner above the door from the same scene as the old Ecto.

Thanks for the links.

And that's only the tip of that "iceberg". You should see the whole deal. :wink:

I did some customs of the Palisades figs. They're boxed up along with a castle I never got around to repainting. I'll have to dig them up. Here's a pic of the rest of the top shelf.

Dug out the Castle. Surpirsed to see the figures still standing on top. I plan to give it the whole "stone" look someday.

Customised "Armored" Ash fighting 'ol Evil Ash.

Image

Hero Ash on his trusty steed, "Hamburger".

Image

Deadite Captain on his "Death Horse".

Image

Same thing only different.

Image

'Mr. Fancypants" knocking heads

Image

That's it for the Palisades figures.

It's not that hard. All you need is some clothesline, a pop rivet gun and a few metal rods to shove up their butts. That'l keep 'em in line. :wink:

Capt, I would love to see you take on that Ecto-1A. I've got one that's about in the same condition as your's is, but I'll bet you could make it look absolutely sick.

Prolly could, but not right away. Maybe a project for a snowy day.

I got 2 new (to me) items off eBay. First is EGB Sam Hain who is a slight dissapointment. His body seems kinda short and his cape falls apart if you pick him up. He's a good candidate for a makeover.
Image

I know he's an ancient, but his dentures don't fit right. :lol: And what's up with the girly eye lashes?Still, the head sculpt is pretty cool.

Image

Next is a Slimer candy pack, complete with moldy candy.

Image

For a blow mold type of container, the sculpt is pretty awsome and should paint up even better.

Image

Are there any other small Slimers out there that I don't have in my collection?

Capt - I've been watching those Sam Hain figure auctions and missed one because I forgot what time it ended. Glad to see it land in good hands though!

Actually, Slimer was an easy repaint. The tiny Ectos will involve a lot of Blue Tape and I have to make the mini back door and licence plate decals. That's a winter project.
