Power to The People!

Took some time out today to create the Tooting Popular Front's generalissimo, Wolfie Smith, as a character figure for Winter of '79.


The Fulham scarf? Well you have to don't you!


I thought the Uzi was 1970's revolutionary in the Baader-Meinhof mould and right up Wolfie's street as the self styled Che Guevara of South London.


Cheers

    What an absolutely superb character figure Mark. Just how I remember Foxy (er...Wolfie!)
    Aye, Dusty (er...Rusty!)

    Wonderful! A beret, Afghan coat and an Uzi - what self respecting '70s urban revolutionary wouldn't have those three crucial accessories?

    What figure did you use as the base for this? I'm assuming it's a conversion...

    Thanks Rusty, John!

    John, the base figure is one of Rolf's URBUZI guys. The beret head is from Rolf's FALK1A Falkland British, SLR in beret.

    Cheers

    Great little conversion- have to confess that I've never seen the show though....
