Lido 35mm Spaceman 'SHZN' Bird Beak w-Ray Gun - Yellow HP

Here's the second figure received as part of a recent job lot, he too was in a color variation I didn't yet have. The other bonus was that his ray gun is intact! Enjoy! Opa Fritz

Lido 35mm Spaceman 'THGX' Alien in Gas Mask Eyes Right - Green HP

Oh good grief! I had to delete my post from a little bit earlier because, as it turns out, I posted the 35mm green HP  'BRLT' robot-type figure by mistake. A few weeks or so ago I got this job lot in with these two figures, neither of which had been posted before. I meant to post the green guy with gas mask shown here, not the robot. Enjoy!

Lido 50mm Humanoid No. 4 - Bronze HP

Holy Cow! We are finally at the end of the Lido Captain Video figure's series'! This is the last of the 50mm Satellite Men of which there were eight aliens and four Humanoids. Our next post will be a short recap as well as some of the interesting facts I've learned along the way. After which there will be some residual Lido posts. Enjoy! Opa Fritz

All four 50mm Humanoids

(L) 50mm (R) 35mm
The larger version has a broken-off thingamajig. I have no clue what the designers intended for that thing to be. Weapon? Tool? Your guess is as good as mine.

Lido 50mm Humanoid No. 3 - Silver HP

After some delays I can now finish off the Lido Humanoid series as well as put a cap on the Lido Space Port / Satellite Men series. In addition, I'll have a couple of nice additions to Lido's space toys and one very special contribution! For now though - Enjoy! Opa Fritz

(L) 50mm (R) 35mm
Yet another example proving that the smaller figures weren't simply pantographed down from the larger figures (or visa versa). While I'm 99% certain the two sizes of figures were separate sculpts, I'm now of the opinion that they were done by different individuals! Maybe. Maybe not. That's total conjecture on my part, but it just doesn't look like one person sculpting both series - too many differences.
