I really love figures with translucent plastic, I want to collect more see through figures but they're tricky to track down. Can we have a thread where we post our favorite translucent figs? Even a little use of translucent plastic is cool. I'll start with the Marvel Legends phasing variant Vision, always liked this fig.

There's lots of cool see through Godzillas out there.

You should check out the SotA Street Fighter figures. I think most of them, if not all, have a translucent version and they're a good size and come with pretty nice accessories.

The Kenner Batman and Robin movie Mr. Freeze figure had some translucent blue. It looks pretty neat.

There were also a number of 3.75 scale Starwars figures that were designed to emulate holograms and force echos from the movie.

Out of sheer curiosity, I googled "translucent action figure" on ebay and got quite a few results. The most interesting things I saw were:

1. Marvel Legends Wonderman cast in translucent "Ionic" purple.

2. A few Hero Mashers marvel characters cast in translucent colors

3. An Alex Ross style Martian Manhunter cast in clear plastic.

4. Several Ghostbuster Slimer figures.

5. A spirit of Yoda vinyl bank that I actually kind of want to get now.

But of them, the Wonderman is probably the coolest looking one.

Beast Wars used a lot of translucent plastic, especially for the insectoid Predacons. IT worked well to capture the exoskeleton look a lot of those insects have. A lot of them do it in a very subtle way where the translucent aspect is only noticeable when really backlit

I have these. The green and blue things are from a dollar store and have shit articulation, but they look cool.
>>
Seems like a lot of collectors get tired of them but I really like all the "Emperor's Wrath" Vader figures. Very scene specific but can look really cool when displayed properly.

Speaking of Vaders, one that really comes to mind is the POTJ Dagobah Vader. Everything is translucent, including his (plastic!) cape, has really nice glowing red eyes, and his head comes off and a section of the helmet breaks away to reveal Luke's face like in Empire. One of Hasbro's all-time best figures IMO.

Kaiyodo Dokuroman skeleton from Japan. They're 1:18, have 19 POA and retail for the equivalent of 3 dollars in Japan. You can still get them on Rakuten Toysanta for a slight markup + int'l shipping fee (6 or 7 dollars).

Keep in mind when purchasing online that the clear-hands Blastarr is a variant, the normal one just has blue gloves. Make sure you know what you're getting.

Also, I have this Blastarr and I love how they molded his biceps in clear and painted a grey gradient over them, it looks so fucking good.
