Those are most impressive, indeed. The Cobra figures bring back fond
memories of my childhood.
Looking at them, some look like DIY stickers or decals (the boxer for
instance - as well as some of the superheros - the Capt America) from the
way that some of the lighter colors show up at the edges. The other thing I
thought was that some may possibly be airbrushed but I'd think the paint
would stand out a little more than it does. Some of the torsos don't appear
to be .quite. LEGO color (the Star Trek Scottie's torso is a smidge too
light it seems).
Either format would justify the clearcoating option that they offer if one
wishes to play with them after purchase...so.. no real clue there that I can
pick out.
I'm mostly curious what was used for the faces. Torso's I can kind of fudge
but faces have me kind of stumped atm.
