Yeah, that's a bad play on words-- so shoot me.
This figure is a repose of the Discovery Astronaut and still needs some serious work to fix/restore/resulpt before I can put it into rubber. It looks great here, though! And just so you all know, we're going to go back to casting the helmet in halves. Getting the inside part of the mold out of the casting is really difficult and results in helmets being distorted or broken and with the amount of stress to that part of the mold, its not going to last very long!
I'll have more on this figure once I can find someone to do the joint work. And since I know someone will ask-- it will come with the chest and back packs.
