Then just get him to have another Standard Gremlin. his main selling point is all his accessories. You can make him the annoying gremlin with the puppet, the "brooding gremlin" that bashes in the head of the annoying puppet Gremlin with a mallet, a poker playing gremlin, etc.
As much as I love this, I think I'm cool with the Flasher Gremlin I already have

BioShock figures with broken parts, Alien Warriors with broken knee joints, city hunter Predator with broken left wrist joint, Godzilla 94 with a head that pops off, Godzilla 2014 with one end of the bendy wire protruding out from the plastic, the rest are just bad paint apps, paint chirps, mold marks and other minor flaws. As much as I like their new stuff, I always let it pass for fear of having another broken figure at the end.
I've had major issues with qc and poor paint apps, weird decisions (the dainty way their Predators hold the throwing disc; reusing netted Predator bodies for Kenner/comic homages and then just not painting the netting or making new body molds, which I think they may finally have now; the outright refusal to make Harrigan from Predator 2 or Dillon from Alien 3), some bad sculpts here and there (Kyle Reese and a couple of their 7" 'Big Chap' Alien figures), the mess that was their diecast Hunter Killer tank, Randy's obnoxious fratboy twitter behavior, the cancellation of the Greta Gremlin figure some years back (I really hope she stays uncancelled this time and doesn't break in my hands when and if I finally get her). I want to like their stuff. I really do. But they make it really difficult. I want to be excited about their upcoming Parker figure, since he's my favorite Alien franchise character, but all the pics I've seen of the proto and pre-prod figures, he just looks like a generic black guy and not Yaphet Kotto, and I refuse to buy that sight unseen, since he and Brett are apparently online-only exclusives.
