Our Mock Mr. Rock Blister Carded

 It's been awhile since this Mr. Rock mockoff figure was finished.

 I've been waiting for the best blister to fit his 9 inches and wide stance, but more importantly I wanted to do decent justice to Bill's fabulous repro card art.

Today I found a largish clear plastic sushi box in Aldi. It provided the perfect blister, as well as my Japanese lunch. You got a little plastic fish too! Result! 

So here he is, the Moonbase International carded mock Mr. Rock finally finished.

See what you think.


In monochrome as it might have appeared in comic ads.


I added an old price tag this time for a final touch. 

I had to keep this photo as somehow it's captured my ugly mug too! Ha ha

    Another great project, and the blister is perfect. The price sticker is a nice touch. As is the mysterious looming alien presence.

    1. Cheers Paul. It's come together finally. My Spock was a slightly awkward size.
