Being a child of the Seventies and Eighties, my immediate association is Monkey!
Parts laid out:
Parts cleaned up, note the pin in the bottom of the hatch, there's way too much leverage on this joint to trust it without. The hole broke through the back side of the piece but was angled so that it'll be hidden at the back. Also, note the recurled tail:
Assembled! I made sure to position the tail so that it could be glued to the thigh/shorts as well as at the end to give a much stronger connection. It was also carefully positioned to fit the overall pose while being safely tucked under the front arm, I'm way too paranoid about it snapping off to put it anywhere that sticks out!
I'd originally planned some Milliput work to add a neckerchief and headband to match the Seventies TV show more closely but I'm not sure my sculpting skills are up to the job.
The paint scheme will definitely be the same red/yellow/grey colours though.
P.S. I tried him out on the tabletop last night, Camo + Superior Infiltration + Super Jump + Climbing Plus is simply awesome.
