I started a thread here [http://x.co/J7mQ] asking about the difference between the Food Fight with the solid Red shirt vs. the Stripped shirt. While I put that item to bed, I in turn raised another question...should I replace my CPO?

Here's the deal, the brand new one I got is Revision A, with the stripped shirt...the original one I have is Revision B with the solid shirt. The original is pretty damaged and actually has paint in parts made to look like it's not a hole.

My anal side says use the new one...make everything perfect. My "it must stay classic" side says don't touch it.

So, I'm putting it out there for advice...what to you guys think I should do? Rev.b.full.jpg is mine, rev.a.full.png is my potential replacement.

looks to me like the colors are off on the reproduction take a pic with both in the same frame.


If, the colors are that far off, I would throw the crappy reproduction away.

even if they are not off, I still don't think your overlay is bad enough to replace.

th overlays are different. Probably changes in the red shirt and striped shirt run..
reproduction, the pies are yellow instead of white.
reproduction icre cream is the same color as the cone. Original is different.
reproduction shoes are black and white. original is red and white.

take a look at pheonix overlay pic. Looks to me like your reproduction is lacking colors

Nah, mine is the Phoeniz Arcade one. The mixture might not look right, but it is in fact a perfect match of the revision a version.

You can't quite see the damage on mine, but it isn't in the best of shape. As I said, pats of it are painted on, plus it is cracked completely along the glass.

I just don't know if I should restore it with the wrong image.
