    Default Crimes against Blow Molds!

    Stopped in at a junk shop in Grand Forks today. They had an old TPI nativity that someone had repainted with a heavy green enamel paint, using a brush!

    yuck! The plastic was in pretty decent shape, but I didn't know how I'd ever get that paint off.

    They wanted $75 for it too. :121_reindeer:

    You should go back for it and get it. For $75.00 and a gallon or two of stripper, some KFP, you could bring that set back to life. As you know, TPI is history, their molds were gorgeous. Please go get it!!
