" Laughing Charlie " is my all metal 1/6th Skeleton . I got him for Christmas last year , I am so behind on so many projects ... I got Laughing Charlie a Sword and a Shield , and hope to fit him into many other future scenarios . He is surprisingly easy to pose , and stands very well , likely down to his weight . You can remove the top of his Skull which holds a removeable brain . His jaw is also moveable , and can be posed open or closed . I like him quite a lot , a very fun if a little expensive figure .

I’m really really liking the look of Charlie the laughing skeleton. The Sword and a Shield suits him perfectly. I think it’s really gross cool that you can remove the top of his Skull which holds a removeable brain. Can I ask how much did he cost you Chip?

Very nice. My first thought, with the sword and shield, was Jason and the Argonauts.
I didn't know that a metal skeleton, that was poseable, was ever made. Great stuff.

Think it was something close to £100 Alex , sounds a lot , but think of the work that must go into them , there are plastic jointed versions out there , but they are prone to breakages . I couldn`t find many listed on eBay , and all were £100 plus . Monkey Depot has them @ $69 , which is a steal , but shipping will make them over £100 for us in the U.K I would think .
