Anyone remember a President GW Bush paper model figure?

Does anyone remember a President GW Bush paper model. I think he was dressed as a cowboy with a gas pump handle in his hand. I had it but can't remember what it was called or who had it for download. I was looking on backup for it but can't seem to find it. Wanted to make a couple of customs out of it.

Thanks
Clif

The model you are looking for came from paperpino.net. I downloaded it in January 2009. I haven't found it on the site but Pino is a member here.

Here is my build of that kit. I did some customizing -- opened up the lattice of the oil well, made the nozzle 3-dimensional, and added the Wanted poster. It was fun to build.

Nice Peter! I thought I had a copy but have hunted through my backup disks and unfortunately I can't find my copy. Maybe I'll find a copy sometime. I like your upgrade.

Just for the record, my copy of this kit did not come from Optical Toys, but from a test version that I received directly (and with grateful thanks!) from Pino himself. It need a few minor adjustments. For example, you can see from my photo that the vertical tube for the pump cylinder lined up outside of the platform, and I added a small supporting block for it.
