Variant Spotlight - Signature Series 2 B.A. Billy Gunn

Back when facsimile signatures were all the craze (not really), the following Billy Gunn action figure was a hot item from the second installment of the Signature series line.

Gunn's debut figure, alongside his tag team partner Road Dog Jesse James in the 2 Tuff Series 2 set, led to this repaint with a sparkling blue attire and the same detailed boots as was seen before.

However, a variant was produced of Gunn with purple knee pads, and both variations have still yet to be added to my collection (but hopefully will soon).

For its time, it was an interesting repaint that likely would have been fun to search for on store pegs.

It would have been great if the trunks had been repainted, too, but the purple pads stand out with the excellent blue attire, so it's all good in my book.

By the way, I'll have more posts coming in the next few days.

Until next time, thanks for looking and have a nice day!
