I must admit I am a great fan of the Milton character and I am missing info about the first releases of this little guy, especially these versions : Clear Red Solid Red Solid Pastel Blue So if anybody here can enlighten me about how they were released (official release, special release during a show, SSSS...) I would be really grateful Moreover even if I assume that the Solid Black one is from SSSS, what about the Solid Purple ? Thanks in advance !
I thought solid black was SSSS, unpainted red was in lucky bag and clear red was a lottery prize/giveaway that night and for sale later. Purple with blue spray was a regular release.
Thanks to everyone for these helpful answers Last but not least: what about this one ? Pic: connell (Flickr)
I thought it was offered up at the same time as the unpainted light blue. At least I think that's when I got mine.
I snagged the blue, red and clear red all together online . . . pretty sure there was one in the Lucky Bags which kinda points to it being black!
In all honesty, I would have to go back and check. They all came in around the same time, and we used them for different reasons -none of which were premeditated. Regardless, the first four are all unpainted: Black, light blue, opaque red and translucent red. The purple unpainted was a test shot for the production run that was given to connel for being connel. If it turns up at Mandarake, we will have issues.
okay, so I got first dibs on that purple test sundae if Connell ever decides to sell...!!! here's Connell in a few years... just replace gun with purple milton... I'm just fucking with you PH...!!!
