I really wanted the second series of TRU Senior Ranking Officers figures. Didn't see the sea set. Got the IG set. But am pissed of about the Air set. Every single air set i saw Wild bill had flesh colored glasses. WTF!!
Great job hasbro chinese low paid factory workers! Sunglasses do not work that way. They are not made of skin.
Do you have a pic? I really want that set, but wild bill with unpainted glasses? bummer.... if that's the case I'll have to paint them myself.

Well, if you're just going to take them out of the package, I don't see what would keep a person from swapping the head with a regular Wild Bill. Especially considering those figures are pretty much everywhere. Unlike the new SRO sets it would seem.

Mine is not like that, besides once you get his Pilot helm on he looks hella cool anyway. Only one I need with a regular hat on would be the Blue Pilot from the next CP and if they ever release a Dragon Fly and I bet it comes with Wild Bill anyway (WW+rattler).

We have tons of the Wave 1 SROs in the TRUs by me. But nothing new.

I think by default, if you're a Hasbro Chinese factory worker, you're already starting your work day as a "bad" one.

I already told you they don't get payed money, usually it's food they get paid with.
And the workers that ARE here do pretty go jobs.

The paint job on my Wild Bill is very bad, too. Plus, the paint on the head also seems glossier than usual for these figures. The paint job on rest of the figures look fine, so I wonder what happened with Wild Bill.

My TRU only has the first series of SRO, so when are they supposed to come out?

My sets were fine.
I just wish all flesh parts were molded in flesh and not painted. Ace was the only one who's face was molded in flesh color. Wish they did that with "Star"Duster and WildBill.

This "variant" should be called "Buffalo Bill"...
As in Silence Of The Lambs!
How do you think he gets those flesh glasses, Clarice?

Mine are painted fine. The only thing about my set is that Skyduster did not have a gun and knife for the holsters. Is he supposed to have any?

I don't know, but overall, how is Starduster?
Worth it, or would you avoid him if you could?
since Bill is a nick name for William maybe we will call the Skin Glasses version Wild WIlly lol
LOL, that is too great, and I believe that will be his new name.
