Can't wait to see it.

We only put that head on for those images. It's not a permanent figure. Just for the one set of images.

Wow... I actually really like the CR head on the MoS figure. Lol

Thanks. I am going to take my MOS figure to work tomorrow and take some better images of the Reeve head on there.

Want to think Shortround and Emrea for their awesomely helpful tutorial on doing the cape mod. I finally modded mine tonight. However I didn't do the full mod. I just removed the piece underneath the suit and lowered the collar. I kept the original cape intact and didn't hollow out the collar. Anyway just wanted to say thanks to those guys for their detailed video tutorial

Here is WIP of a Franken/MOS figure. Originally, I was using a KP body with MOS head. It morphed into a KP body with MOS arms and head with enhancements to the butt and thighs. The best part is that I am more comfortable breaking down figures.

BUTT why? sorry couldnt resist......shoulders look to pinched, wich makes the arms short, legs are too thin...better off just chopping him at the thigh and calf, done right you can get hom down in height, if thats what you want, without losing the great look on this figure......the mos body isnt perfect, but its not bad,,, carvill is a big guy pretty much....

thanks for the comments. I'm not too sure about chopping up a spare figure that I probably spent too much for. As for the arms appearing too short, It doesn't appear so. Also, Cavil's arms in the movie appeared too short. You're right about the legs, especially if it is compared to the actual figure. The mod has greater neck articulation and because his chest is a bit smaller and the material softer than Hot Toys, greater articulation in that area. I will post pics demonstrating such later.

maybe try some thigh slip ons. i usualy glue mine if i need them, thing is the ht wont fit that body, not sure if the kp came with them? if not try heating the ht up and forming them on the thigh....good luck,,,if your happy thats all that matters...

 

[mightyq]

[mightyq]

It's possible that, in time, Cavill will be every bit as iconic for the current generation.
But for those of us who were around when Reeve first donned the tights, he will always be Superman.
Not putting down Cavill.
MOS was very entertaining. And i love the figure.

What kind of glue do you guys suggest for securing some of the waist elements to the suit? It looks like the point of one of the rubber stripes has pealed off a bit and I want to re-secure it, but I want to make sure the type of glue I use doesn't eat through the suit. Any suggestions? Thanks friends.
