Episode 331

Read the comic here.

The torso I've been using for Whiskey's Jacket is indeed from 1993 - at least, that's when it was first released. It was quite popular in the 1990's, showing up here and there until 1999. There was one last re-issue in 2004's City Airport - and then nothing.
LEGO has been putting a lot more detail work into their torso designs lately; it's not shocking to see this rather plain bomber jacket fall by the wayside. Personally, I'm in favor of the trend - I think it gives the minis a lot more personality.

I see Whiskey as more of a blues jeans kind of guy as well.

That's just like a bunch of gals to suddenly decide to update a fellow's look. I think he needs one of those Emo-Force hairdos for a couple days. :)

Sooner or later, you'll forget to edit his chest, and I'll be there.




I'll be there....*backs into the shadows*

Just for you, I've colored over the pink on one of my Indy Torsos with a yellow sharpie.
