Too bad I still don't have the Borgnine orignal helmet, that would have gone nice with that!
Thank you all for the wonderful comments - YES, I am grinning ear to ear and I can't stop. I've been trying to watch old episodes of airwolf but my 3 month year old daughter doesn't seem to like it very much. :unsure
Oh my! Well, if you did sleep with it, you could just tell people you spent the night with a beautiful lady.
That is indeed a once in a lifetime score. Given the age of the piece, I am very surprised at how good a condition it is in. It sounds like somebody at Universal wanted to keep that thing in good shape after the show went off the air given that they knew how special it was.
BTW, is there any way you could do some color chip research on it? Reason I ask is the Airwolf paintjobs is one of the more elusive ones to pin down, given how Universal seemed to like darkening the footage in post production to give it more of a black coloring. I've heard it is somewhat close to an Anthracite Gray metallic with perhaps a slightly darker clear coat on it, but I have yet to see any good enough pictures to use for color matching.
it's impossible to get good pictures to match the actual airwolf - because many scenes were shot in the desert, the paint started to fade and turn a greenish color....and of course the film temperature, post darkening and filters on the cameras..etc. etc. However, thie phantom Grey was the original color
as much as I would love to chip off paint on the miniature and bring it to the store :unsure- I think it would be easier if I just told you the paint used for airwolf was Dupont Phantom Grey Metallic #5031K I believe they changed the name to Dupont Phantom Grey - Effect but the number is still the same #5031K. Isn't that easier than a color analysis? :thumbsup

Supposedly, the Lady was originally painted a dark olive drab for the pilot and the first few episodes. She was later painted a charcoal gray because the studio thought that it looked better.

Works for me! Besides, knowing that the color tended to fade to a greenish shade explains a lot as well as later on it did seem to have a slightly funky greenish tint to it. :thumbsup
BTW, wasn't that the same color used on the season 1 Airwolf helmets as well?
I don't want to marry him, I just would like to have it. :lolWill you marry me? That's just beautiful...and huge!
