Make sure to get my good side, lads!
Jalkow has created this scurvy-looking scoundrel for a contest at Forbiddencove, but was kind enough to share it with us nonetheless! The red crowbars make for a very shaggy beard and the minifig torsos create a nice raised-eyebrow effect. Looks like he’s already planning his next looting!
