In the Batman TV show Colonel Gumm works for Pinky Pinkston making stamps for her trading stamp company. On the side he printed counterfeit postage stamps and sells those on the collectable market.

In the comic book series based on the TV show, now General Gumm, he gave himself a promotion, is up to new adventures facing against Batman. One of his new tools is a weapon that looks like a flamethrower but sprays glue instead of flame. He has his henchmen organized on military lines and wearing military style clothing except that their clothing is the color of bubble gum, pink.

I am using Airfix USMC figures, first series, to convert them into some of GEN Gumms henchmen.

You gotta get some pink paint on those bad boys! (And clever conversion work, too. If you hadn't said anything, I'd never have realized they weren't just different poses.)

Clearly the minions' motto is "stick with General Gumm!"

Parzival, they have been spray painted pink, but detail painting is on hold while higher priority tasks are underway.

robert, quite so.
