My refurb project

A while back, I purchased a retro-fit Charlie McCarthy to see how it was built. To my amazement, the eyes were not spheres or even half-spheres, but cylinders. I thought that was quite clever. There are springs in the back of the cylinders for self-centering. I am refurbishing the figure because it was in sad shape when it arrived. The control post was loose (since re-attached), and the eye sockets have a rather heavy (and scary) outline (yet to be corrected with a new paint job). I'll likely repaint the cylinder eyes and perhaps use plastic irises recently purchased on Ebay.
