Found this pretty awesome mod on FB

Not terrible.

Very cool mod, sunnycrowe.

thanks for the pics sunnycrowe, that looks pretty good. I still don't know if I will risk any of these mods. I guess I'll have to see what I think once I have it in hand.

With you stuffing the ab padding into the chest, did you have any problems snapping the vest into place afterwards?

 

[sunnycrowe]

Cutting the inner blue vest is a Big No-No.... it disconnects the two sleeves from the stealth suit, and fuzzing is needed to shaft them back into the suit...

Firstly, the stealth suit is very very rigid.... any extra padding that u stuff on the chest, the padding will be compressed by the rigid suit, and you cant achieve a bigger chest look...... so u have to stuff a lot of padding inside to make the chest visibly bigger.... however it will be extremely difficult to zip the suit back on....

Therefore my stealth cap doesn't look as good as my Avengers cap.... the latter suit is not as rigid, n im able to stuff more padding inside the chest...

Avengers chest mod is by far my most successful yet...

The hair doesn't look as great in the other pictures, but the combination of the lighting and the contrast (light hair, dark outfit) in this shot really makes the figure pop (for me). Which just goes to show what an accurate hair color does for the figure.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

The hair looks too bleached blonde. Needs to be a different color. Aside from that it looks pretty realistic.

 

[sunnycrowe]

the hair looks too dry, as if he just showered and fresh... maybe some gel will do the trick.. im not sure... anyway it looks superb....

Hi all, this is what I mod to my captain

Show you the neck mod, is easy, no techniques required.

Use hair dryer to soften the neck & take the neck joint out

Pull out the joint

Fixing the joint to the neck directly

Plug to the body ball joint

Finish

That looks good. If it had come like that from HT I would have bought it.

 

[skooternb]

If you have a knife you can also just pop the base open.

It looks really good!

Bwahahaha... LMAO with all this terrible mods...

It´s funny to see people expending 200 hundred bucks on a figure and then ruin it.

There. Just need a set of Golden Age hands and my stealth Cap will be finished. Really like the gauntlets on him and it solves the frayed cuffs/short sleeve issue.
Sorry for the sideways pic. Not sure why it attaches that way. View attachment 162888

Looks really great!
And it's a clever little mod that doesn't affect the figure hugely but improves the look a lot.
Well done there.

Those gauntlets look good, where are those from?

Thanks User.

Gauntlets are from the first Avenger figure. Ordered the set from Toy Anxiety. Should have ordered the hands when they had them but Star Lord's fists will stand in for now.

Did my 2nd mod on the cap.... Cut the fat suit at lower abs and stuff the fat suit up his chest.....

Bigger chest and slimmer waist, downside is the lower ab feels hollow now, doesn't grab the steath suit as tight as before..

Which is the major problem I mentioned when doing this mod. Guess it is is an inevitable thing to do though because it looks like it is the only way to obtain the V shape as Hyatt's Reeve torso mod's does not even have the perfect V shape.

My only regret on my 1st mod, was to cut the underneath blue vest.... though it allows arms to rest better on the sides (rather than flare out wide like Reeves superman body), but the two sleeves at shoulder tends to drop out and reveal the fat suit/body underneath..... but a little fuzzing will do....

The shape of the torso looks quite good and the best one I have seen so far, but the body still looks too skinny, and not big like the prototype. Nevertheless, good job man way better than mine.

Cutting the inner blue vest is a Big No-No.... it disconnects the two sleeves from the stealth suit, and fuzzing is needed to shaft them back into the suit...

Ok that is three people now (including me) that have said not to do it.
