Amazing... I bought a crossover figure to paint up as the phantom only a few days ago and now you do this. Good thing co's come with several heads.

Man that mini looks nice. Wow.  :-*

Hopefully this will be chunkier than the last Phantom miniature I bought.

Funny.. I was always told that the Phantom wasn't very well known outside of Scandinavia in Europe.

He isn't really. I've always liked him though.

In Spain he is, or maybe "he was" is more accurate.
Their comic books where published since 40s, and he was very popular until 80s, they where publisehd as El Hombre Enmascarado.

By the way one of the usual Phantom artist is a spaniard, Joan Boix, http://www.schapter.org/wiki/Joan_Boix
but since 60s it's frequent to find comic book agents hiring spanish artist to draw comic books published in northen europe.
Another example would be the Modesty Blaise comics done by Romero
