Re-Paints, Artist Proofs etc...
The production version of Gemini is only 5.5" tall so really doesn't fit in with the rest of the range, So collector Fred Winkler bought both the Taurus and Virgo figures from the range and asked
Tina Sherratt to repaint them as a full sized (8") Gemini pair. Tina also had to fill in the original zodiac signs on the arms because on the originals they are sculpted in, she also added glitter to make them match the rest of the figures in the range. It's just a shame that it was decided that the production piece of Gemini would be a different scale to the rest of the range.
