I've 4 variation cards for the Red Shadow; straight UK with weapons, straight UK without weapons, Ombré Rouge/Rode Schadow and Red Shadow/Ombré Rossa.. I'm aware of the German Rote Schatten but does anyone know of any other variant cards for this guy?

Not too sure about the cards other than the missing German but you do need to get a miscarded Vulture curtousy of the Palitoy Friday drinking sessions.
I dare say SteveD has one that he could show off?

Thanks Warren and I'd very much like to see that!

Steve D, are you there? Can I see the Vulture?

I've got a MOC German Red Shadow for sale, drop me a PM if you're interested.

Oh and I've just sold a MOC Black Gloves Shadow out of my collection.

Damn it the black gloves version is probably the only one I don't have.
I think we came to the conclusion that there were at least 9 red shadow carded variants.
Will see if I can get the pictures of my guys

I'll try to dig out a photo tomorrow and post it here if I can find one on my memory stick!

From memory there's the vulture miscarded, the ombré rossa, and good old miscarded as destro, amongst others! Arguably the most varianted of the variants! Especially once you start factoring in dufus versions and the different mail away offers!
