Do you recall from where? Sounds like the bags I picked up from
Nobbies/Oriental Trading Co. I recently saw two of the figs were copied
from Anime ships I'd never seen except as models on eBay. On the other

copied from a Silent Death fig.

Square shoulders, two extended engines?

I figure any earplugs John carries are for giving out just prior to his
explaining something to someone who doesn't see 'what's obvious'.  ;->=
