C52 Popeye The Sailor

C52 Popeye The Sailor -Mould (2 5/8" figures). Three Figures. Popeye, Wimpy, Olive Oyl. Also A29 in earlier Home Foundry Catalog.

These are a semi-flat set from the C-52 Popeye The Sailor mould available from Rapaport in the 1930's. The set is available as bare metal, or primered. To paint the set as shown you can download the painting guide below that includes the Vallejo paint colors I used to paint the examples. Simply click the download link. Note the Primered models are more expensive due to the time required for additional cleaning of flash on the model rather than the cost of the primer! All models are shipped USPS Priority Mail at the flat rate of $11.00 per order, which is pretty much my cost of shipping. I do not charge extra for the box or materials to wrap your order. Generally all orders ship within 2-3 days of purchase as I do keep a small quantity of models poured and prepped. If it is going to be longer then 2-3 days I will reach out to you and let you know the timeline. Shipping & Return Policy Here.

When ordering from this page you will receive all three models from this mould. The models in the images below are from the same mould as the models you will receive. 

Painting Suggestions You will need Adobe Reader to view this download This sheet provides painting suggestions for the Popeye The Sailor models using Vallejo Model Paint Colors. You can use these suggestions to paint the models like the image at the top of the page or modify the colors to suit your own taste! if you do let me know the colors you used in the comments section below! Note: While the colors for Popeye, Wimpy and Olive Oyl have changed quite a bit over the decades, based on my research, I have selected the Vallejo colors that most closely match the original Fleischer-style colors set.
