Prototype Dune Stinger

Meant to post these shots for awhile but life got in the way.

Prototype Dune Stinger - photo 1




Prototype Dune Stinger - photo 2


This figure came from an eBay aution of prototype figures (from Thailand).

Technical stuff: The first shot is without a flash, the second one with a flash. Then both photos were run thru Photoshop (adjust levels, curves, brightness/contrast, add a semi-transparent gradient to the background and final image "masked").

Board's been kinda slow so I figured I'd try to help liven things up a bit.

Cool pics! He looks a bit lifeless without the paint apps. Did he come with any never before seen pieces like the Shock Berserker did?

[greyloch]

No, unfortunately it didn't.

Just the funky base paint w/o highlights or shadowing. Really makes a difference, doesn't it? Only negatives I've found were the joints are super tight (almost too tight) and the armor pegs are too short to effectively stick into the arms. Can tell Hasbro/Stikas was working out some production issues with DS.

Speaking of extra, non-retail pieces, I'll be posting in the next day or so shots of another prototype Shock Berserker.

BTW, if anyone wants one of these Dune Stingers please let me know as I have an extra one. The first one my post office screwed up on delivery so I got another one during the interim.

Huh. Seems pretty boring imo. I prefer the original one.
P.S. I would try to liven up this place, but I don't have a digital camera!
EDIT: Woo! 5 stars! ;D
