38Driver Posted April 25, 2016 Share #1 Posted April 25, 2016 Found myself redressing the mannequin from the winter to spring stuff since it's warming up outside. It's a bit of a flash back to the GI Joe days as a kid, but full size! Changed him up from the B-10, A-9, A-6 boots and RAF Helmet, gloves and Mae West, to a B-15, A-11 helmet with B-8 goggles and B-3A gloves and A-6A boots and a US Mae West. Not sure if I should start worrying about myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueBookGuy Posted April 25, 2016 Share #4 Posted April 25, 2016 great-looking mannequinn! Just a courtesy if possible. I'm longtime looking for a pair wartime AAF B-3A yellow gloves to add to my B-3/B-3A collection - AAF B-3/B-3A, Navy wartime yellow/cream gloves (not B-3A), Navy post-war B-3A, USAF yellow/brown/grey/acqua B-3A, etc. - so I'd like know what markings your yellow ones do have inside. Guess should be something like Alexette Glove Corp. or Bacmo Postman Corp.? Thanks very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bheskett Posted April 26, 2016 Share #14 Posted April 26, 2016 It is OK if you are going off the cliff a bit. Everyone on this forum is half a bubble of of plumb, and most of us play with "man dolls". Love the display looks great.

Waltz41 Posted April 27, 2016 Share #18 Posted April 27, 2016 Very nice display you have there. Love the full mannequin look. Both look great, and hey, it's super fun to change things up! I completely get that....it's kind of like 'playtime' with our stuff!! But Dan....as long as you don't start talking to him.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDermut99 Posted April 27, 2016 Share #19 Posted April 27, 2016 Echoing Waltz, if you start carrying on conversations with him, it's time to take a break. And if he talks back, RUN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
