WWF LJN Andre the Giant, Series 3 (1986), Loose

Description: I'm finally diving into the LJN crate... I could never find this Andre in stores as a kid; he was given to me as a (second-hand) gift when a childhood friend moved away because he knew how much I wanted this figure. Andre saw lots of action, but escaped with relatively mild paint loss (see photos) as far as LJNs go. There's a mystery chunk taken out of his right fist - that's how he came to me, no idea what happened, but I kinda like that mystery. I forgot about it until after I took the pictures, but if you zoom in, you'll see it. Nothing egregious, but it looks like someone chewed his pinky off. A Note On My LJNs: These guys have been in a crate for 30-some years, and when I started pulling them out in order to sell them, they were rather tacky to the touch (happily, they still have that weird chemical rubber LJN stink that I remember - though it's also possible that I've poisoned myself just by smelling them), so every LJN figure I list gets a cursory cleaning (ArmorAll Multipurpose, a toothbrush, a lightly damp cloth, and a dry cloth), which brightens them up nicely without damaging the paint and mitigates the tackiness by a lot. You may want to give that another go, but they've been cleaned up a bit. No re-painting or anything like that.
