I read somewhere that Mattel might re-issue this figure with all metallic gold paint job on all his yellow parts – so imagine his gloves as also metallic ……or so they say! Don’t know about his cape, though…..

Got it, and man are those gloves tacky. What a mismatch. Might return if I can trade it for a pure yellow one (ah, who am I kidding?)

If the factory can churn out a fantastic BOOSTER GOLD figure with a great all-over metallic paint job, I think they can do the same metallic shade on Dr. Fate’s gloves, at least……
SOOOOO FATE DEMAAAANDS!!!

Well we won’t end up paying double I think cause down here at Hong Kong I got my Modern Dr. Fate, hes not much rare more like the classic is rare also I found Hawkgirl, 2 Paredemons, Gentlemen Ghost only but my local retailer got it early because Hong Kong is just down China, and China would ship it earlier for us =) I am happy of it and like the translucent spell accessories. but I have a few problems with the figure. Its not as light as the gold is on this picture =( and the cape makes the abdominal crunch, I’ll probably get Classic version and not open it.
I believe its more rare due to the fact that the guy was the best Dr. Fate I think.

A Couple of the Marvel Legends used a gold-yellow mix (eg. Phoenix) and that worked really well. On Shazam the yellow/gold thing worked alright, but on Dr.Fate here?…..nada.

I wish toy companies wouldn’t mix and match the gold and the yellow. If you are using yellow to represent gold, then I can accept that. But if you are using actual gold paint, then make his gloves and cape gold too. That’s just my 2 cents…

This would look better if the gloves were gold as well
