Black Beauty & JWA Geronimo

The Green Hornet's Black Beauty was based on a 1966 Chrysler Imperial which was customized by Dean Jeffries.  The Black Beauty being built for the Green Hornet series resulted in some insiders calling ABC the 2-car network, referring to this car and the Batmobile.  The model is 1/32 scale like the Aurora Batmobile.  It does not come with figures just as the other car did not.

A rather recent acquire.  The body was changed to orange and the soft vinyl accessories were changed to yellow although the hard plastic accessories remained dark brown.  Still not sure I really like orange and yellow, but I have so many of the JWA figures now, I though I might as well have this one, too.  Still haven't bought any kids or anyone with a lever in their back.  Just sayin.  I have also not purchased a JWA Fighting Eagle.  Lime green gear just really does not look that good in my opinion.
I know the shield is supposed to have 5 feathers.  This is the one that come with the figure.  I may have to do a general shield upgrade at a later date.
