Birdman - X-changer style figure any info?

[skullbooska]

anyone have any info on Birdman here?? he's he-man size (roughly 6") and he's body type is probably closest to an x-changer, minus the xchanging parts. the card back is blank, and there is no date anywhere. Im guessing he came form the late 80's, or early 90's, since I bought him with a bunch of other carded stuff from that era.

no idea, but very cool!

What are those little manufacturer symbols underneath the bubble? Probably some random, cheap-o Batman knock off. Interesting to see that the guy who was probably supposed to apply the belt sticker did it wrong! The bird insignia looks like it was meant to be a stylized "B"...ha!

Though I can't see articulation at the elbows & knees, he resembles the Imperial style jointed bodies more so than the X-changers. The torso, hands, & way the legs are attached at the waist piece especially. Cool card art on this guy.

The figures all packed away, but Ill post the writing when i dig him up again. As for the body, youre right, it isnt very xchangers. It actually is very similar to Appleworks/United Artits Corp Rocky III figure from 85. I just so happened to come across Thunderlips and Mr T and the bodies are pretty similar. Same articulation and same smoothness.

I almost looks more like an Imperial body like they use on the Karate guys w/ different legs from the knee down. Does the waste area have a texture to it almost like a leather grain kind of pattern ?

I like it, looks like a 60's batman resculpted head, with other ko parts, anything on the back of card?

[skullbooska]

nothing on the back. just blank cardboard. i wonder if they made the other guys on the front of the card?

I have the red guy from the card art. Just found him on Saturday.
