Finally got my pre-order the other day. Great kit, and I'm looking forward to
the AFM sponsored contest. Just wondering who else will participate? I'm already planning my kit conversion subject. Some of the ideas I threw out were: Captain Action as...Ronald McDonald, Chips Ahoy Man, Bud Man, Count Chocula...

You forgot some. What about the Burger King, Hamburgler, Michelin Man, Luigi (Mario), Norton (Honeymooners), Stan Laurel, Evel Knievel, G.I. Joe, Bozo The Clown, Speed Racer, Austin Powers, Ultra Man, Pappy Boington or Adolf Hitler?? Hmmm??? What about those?

...well, this could be a whole other contest!

The alternate head resembles Robin Williams so much, especially the side profile, he should be painted as Mork to win the contest.

See pictures at captainactionnow.com to see what I mean.

Robin Williams, huh? Now that's one I haven't heard yet. I was thinking it would be cool to make a CA in a space type suit like the 2nd issue Action Boy was in.

I'm thinking about entering. The idea I'm leaning towards currently; Flash Gordon (the Buster Crabbe version).

I'm thinking about entering too. I love contests (this and chili cookoffs).:)

I am definately entering. It gives me a real good excuse to get out of non-modeling mode. I will have my kits sometime next week. Hey you forgot the dude from the Village People.

By the way, I should have posted this earlier though, if you are building a kit for the contest and don't want to crack open that numbered box, I do have some bagged copies. We had extras come in in case of damage, so we're taking the damaged box kits and selling them as bagged builder kits. Kits are perfect, just the boxes had been damaged. $25 plus shipping. There's not a whole lot of them, so e-mail the site if you're interested. Thanks.

Cool deal, Frank! Me, I'm taking the numbered sticker and adhering it to the underside of CA's base.
