Yes, I just saw that! If I didn't have the Smoke II already, I'd be getting it now for sure.

I'm reading the info on Ridge Runner and am not sure what they're trying to say. Does this mean that the paint scheme is not complete? If that's not the propeller that they're gonna use, how might I expect the one that I'll get to look? Will it at least be a four-bladed propellar (and not bent)? Basically, what is the difference between what they're calling the production sample (prototype?) and the one that is, from what I'm reading, the version that's the final finished product/version?

mediump, The Major Von Schitzel looks different then mine. Is there mustache and beard painted on Major Von Schitzel face or does it just look like it?

Cman, I don't think its the strap on Major VS. His strap does not go under his chin, but sticks off the back of his helmet making a little loop so when he is wearing his other hat you can hang his helmet on the little peg on his back. At least that is what I think it is for. Anyone else got any insight on Major VS back peg?

That's not Major Von Schitzel -it's John Lennon without his glasses.
Really that has to be a modified head on him. The Major VS is an old, bald guy. His head came with one of the BOB 2 figs.

lsc and razor you're correct, he's the baldy with a mustache and beard painted on (lsc, the peg on the belt
is for the helmet, the helmet on maj has no strap)
here's the shaven major w/ field cap
