Gristle
as seen in the cartoon

Upon seeing Gristle's appearance in the DIC cartoon, I was so entranced by his awesome sideburns that I grew my own just like his. Really. OK, fine, I didn't, but I did make a figure of him. For some reason the cartoon version of Gristle looks nothing like the figure that was eventually released. I dunno, maybe Hasbro told DIC they were planning to make a figure named Gristle who was a drug dealer, and DIC just designed him themselves for the 'toon. Anyway, this was a nice way to use up one of those blasted Jean Claude Van Dam heads that were so plentiful at Kay Bee for so long. I just added some sculpey for his 'burns and that loose bit of hair at the top of his head, and painted the hair with a mix of brown and yellow. Kinda looks a little like Rico the Stylist from the WWE, no?
