Theme Week - Funskool Flint |
|
Description: Here's another from the archives. Taken in the late summer of 2003. At the time, I really liked how this turned out.
Funskool Flint is one of my most photographed figures. Mostly, because I love the V1 Flint and this is a cheaper and easier way to get him outside without worrying about scuffing up a $50 figure. He's been a staple in my photos since I got him over 22 years ago.

Those black accessories look really good with him.
I vaguely remember seeing people talking about Raven's castings back when I first discovered the online joe community, I think by then his site was already shut down. |

That HISS IV is funny, I didn't like it at the time, but now I wish I had one, because it would probably be fun for photography. |

That Strike HISS is such a strange vehicle. Better armament really would've improved it. |

But, I used it in my photos so often that one of the admins at YoJoe thought it was a real Funskool variant and published on his international Joe site that black weapons were a legit variant for Funskool Flints. |
