Yep.  I don't remember him with a sword before the Thunderbolts era, but he might have had one.  Should be an easy conversion for fans of different costumes.

Just read the Under Siege storyline last night (oddly enough) and he was using a sword in his 'final showdown' with Cap.

Was that his or the Ebony Blade?  I can't remember.

Watcher looks pretty good -- but I will need some pale yellow paint to
restore his flesh to its original hue.

I like that once you returned the Watcher to the original, one-time appearance, it just sorta "stuck" from then on.

…returned the Watcher to the original, one-time appearance…

••

He had that look more than once. He showed up in an only slighty-plumper
version of that form in FF 20, the issue that introduced the Molecule Man.

By issue 20, tho, he was pretty much locked into his alien fat guy form.
And, as with so many things in comics, what was essentially a mistake
became carved in stone for many, many years. (At least in restoring the
Watcher to his original form I did not have to fight quite the same battle I
did to get DC to stop coloring Darkseid's arms and legs PINK!)

Matt, like your selves, they look great.  Do you plan to split up the FF and Avengers eventually into their own teams once you have enough figurines?

I have more than enough Avengers figurines, Brad!  The problem is space.  If I split them up, then the balance of the bookshelves is thrown off, so together they shall remain.  I don't really see adding any more figurines to the FF side and I have room for three or four more Avengers, so I'm hoping it'll do for now.
