Description: PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION FOR THE ADVANCED ADVENTURE TEAM COLLECTOR WHO LIKES TO COLLECT THE ODD BALL VARIANTS LOT IS FOR 2 " BLUE EYE " SEA ADVENTURER HEADS.... AS MOST KNOW THE SEA ADVENTURER HAD BROWN EYES.... SO THESE HEADS WERE THE AMONG THE VERY FIRST TO BE USED MY HASBRO FOR THE THEN NEW 1970 ADVENTURE TEAM LINE ..... HASBRO WOULD NOT WASTE LEFT OVER STOCK AT THIS TIME...... THEY ACTUALLY USED LEFT OVER 1969 PAINTED HEADS ( 1967-1969 STYLE) . THEY WOULD FLOCK OVER THE PAINTED ON HAIR. MOST OF THE TIME THESE EARLY TRANSITIONAL HEADS WERE VERY SLOPPY , GUESSING IT WAS A LEARNING CURVE WITH TECHNIQUE AND FINDIND THE BEST ADHESIVE. ONLY AVAILABLE FOR THE VERY FIRST EXAMPLES OF THE LINE, THE ADVENTURE TEAM HEADS WERE THEN MADE FRESH WITH NO PAINTED ON HAIR AND IT WAS UNDERSTOOD THE RED HEAD SEA ADVENTURER WOULD HAVE BROWN EYES FROM THIS POINT FORWARD..... CONDITION IS POOR, YOU CAN SEE THE FLOCKING SHOWS THINNNING ON HAIR AND BEARS......WHICH IN SOME WAY IS COOL TO SEE THE PAINTED HAIR UNDERNEATH...... ONE HEAD SHOWS THE TYPICAL BLUE SPOTS THE 1967+ HEADS SEEM TO SUFFER....... THESE CAN BE TREATED WITH 10% BENZOYL PEROXIDE AND LEAVING OUT IN THE SUN..........BUT I WOULD LEAVE AS IT IS PART OF THE HISTORY OF THESE...... BOTH CAME IN FROM THE SAME ORIGINAL OWNER , BODIES WERE HEAVILY DAMAGED FROM PLAY WEAR SO THEY WERE USED FOR PARTS TO HELP OTHER JOES....... SIDE NOTE THE BODIES WERE ALSO LEFT OVER STOCK - PATENT NUMBER BODIES AND PAINTED RIVETS. SO TO RECAP, THIS LOT IS FOR THE 2 QUIRKY FIRST ISSUE / TRANSITIONAL HEADS SHOWN.....
