    Oy. Bringing back bad memories of my brother and his college friends always wanting to do Jager bombs.

    Yeah that's a nasty way to spoil a good liquor.

    And people wondered why I called the figure Lemmy Prime when it first came out.

    Trying to talk myself into keeping Punch/Counterpunch. Not that it's a bad figure, but I just don't find much enjoyment in it. I also have zero attachment to the character.
    It seems to pull a good price on the aftermarket, so that's a plus.

    Trying some more outdoor photography in our back yard now that the weather is nice and the rain has stopped.

    This monster is still one of my very favorite PotP figures...even if his joints are pretty floppy.

    I like Punch/ Counterpunch a lot, but like you said, I have no attachment to the character. I've got to get rid of a whole bunch of figures fairly soon. Dunno if I'm gonna keep Punch. We'll see.

    I eventually gave the Siege Racetrack Patrol to Siege Sideswipe.

    Punch/counterpunch is worth keeping imo, but I'm biased to spies. Always wanted a fig that can change sides, gives some fun to my displays when I switch Punch around. I think it fun food for thought with the need for Intel for both sides of the conflict. I also tend to place counterpunch next to Soundwave, jus thinking of that tactical espionage action.

    Cobbled together a perfect version of Red Swoop using the darker grey limbs and wings of the POTP version, plus the gold beak (AND the amazing Nonnef upgrades). I'm usually all for animation accuracy, but this is my Swoop now.

    Great pics as usual, too bad I literally just picked him up the day before or I would have happily bought yours for my Prime Wars display.

    (also indoor lighting sucked so I took some outdoor shots. Excuse the nature.)
