So no more swinging your handbag on the street corner then?
Yeah, as soon as ODB reads the words "head", "stand" "accessories" and "clamshell" in the same sentence he gets all excited and peculiar.

Heh, Even though I ship :destro: & :baroness: , the cover is great; it has a sort of "mirror match" vibe on it reflecting the toyline transition from :enemy: to :cobra: , and :destro: 's anger at seeing :baron: and :baroness: posing together is priceless!
I also notice the helmets of :destro: and :jackal: are drawn in a sort of intermediate design between the "metal mask" from the original figure and :jackal: , and the "metal face" from :destro: across media.

Yep, you've nailed it, DA! The reflection of Palitoy and Hasbro variants is the background - colouring will make it more apparent. Quite how the pairing of The Baron and The Baroness went unnoticed for so long is beyond me, but once the idea grabbed me it refused to leave! I definitely wanted Destro to be seething, with Jackal emotionless by comparison, I think Alejandro nailed it.

And it's going to piss off so many people....!!

I think it's ace. Brilliant concept! :)
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

I was wondering what you were up to. Looks good, Jim.
Let me tell you, Gunner La-De-Dah Graham, the British Army can fight anything! Intimate or not!
