A repaint of 25th Ace because I have Wild Bill (With Dragonhawk) and my friend has Ace and I noticed they share similar features?

Wild Bill is what we call a franken-joe, character created using parts from another figure to save on costly new molds. So yes, Wild bill's made from Ace's torso, arms, legs with new boots(feet). Sad but it worked.

I dont think its that sad I mean u cant keep dishing out molds it would affect us in the long run because wed have to pay more for them to be dishing out new molds everyday.

yeah, i picked up a term on a Star Wars forum: Technically Ace is a Pre-paint of Wildbill (mold designed for WB but released first as Ace)
