Got my G2 Spray today and thought I'd add a few pics to the thread for everyone on the fence. Unless you have a love of G2 like I do, or don't have the original, I wouldn't bother. The chrome causes major problems with the joints, the blue clearcoat chips easily, and it makes the joints and the holes in the hands a super tight fit.
I can't believe it, iGear has done it again and sold me a figure with the box! Although not easy to read because of the font, it seems the chrome Spray's box bio is a parody of the opening rap to the Fresh Prince of Bel Air! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBe0VCso0qs
MW-01C SPRAY PROFILE (sing to the tune of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) Now this is the story all about how Spray's life got flipped, turned upside down And I'd like to take a minute just listen to me I'll tell you how I became the repaint of a line called 2G In Pawtucket, Rhode Island born and raised In the toy shop is where I spent most of my days Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool Waiting to be purchased, played with at home or school When a couple of reps, they were up to no good Started thinking neon in my neighbourhood I saw a couple of paint samples and I got the heebie geebie They said "you've got to have a repaint, if we're putting you in 2G” I dreaded the nineties reboot and when it came near the packaging said "fresh" and “cool”, I couldn't look in the mirror We went through the colour options, complete from A-Z But I thought “I have an idea”, “yo, chrome in 2G!” Now back in the day, remember re-releases were rare, It only happened to the big toys, about minis who would care? But when I looked at my wave mates everyone would see, Me sat in my chrome as the prince of 2G. (this is why I follow Dillinger on Facebook)
Finally caved on this guy. G2 seaspray is the only figure I have left from my original collection. Nostalgia took over and I caved. I think I need an intervention.
Weird, there is a guy selling tons of supposedly Chrome Sprays on ebay for $15 each including shipping out of China. I got it and it's the Chrome toy's box, but inside is regular Spray, and there is no collector card. I wonder if these are factory extras or KOs or something.
I got Tubes from the same seller, I think. Arrived fairly fast, not-Pipes is perfect with no QC issues, so all is good. He looks great in my IDW Lost Light display.
