This fellow began as a recast Marx pirate captain. He decided to shed the unsavory reputation of a pirate captain and, shaving his unkempt beard, became a secretive fellow. Spy, informer, gun-for-hire, no one is exactly sure what his profession is. Does he want a more genteel profession than pirate—or just one that is more lucrative?

While his outfit is inspired by Mr. Mercer of Pirates of the Caribbean, I deliberately chose muted colors and no lace so that he could blend into the crowd. And in a pinch, he can serve with the colonial militia.
Figure by Glencoe recasts from the original by Louis Marx and Co. Minor conversion, including shaving a beard and sculpting a longer waistcoat.
