1/6 Need help

[bebe13junior]

I need help trying to figure out how I can get this Tony Stark Mark V head sculpt onto this body. It doesn?t seem to fit at all. What are your guys suggestions?

The body is a TTM skinny knock off.

What did you do with the neck piece from the first photo? It seems to have disappeared. If those are two different bodies, then you need to find a neck piece to use. Something like this:

Putting neckless sculpts on a no-neck body is a PITA. Most of the neck pieces you find for sale are wide and bare unpainted plastic that don't look good next to the head.

The length can also be an issue. TFA Captain America has a longer neck adapter, but finding one cheap can be difficult.

I still have the neck adaptor and yes it seems to not be long enough. I guess I?ll have to give up on it for now. I don?t want to spend $50 on a longer neck piece haha.

It was either onesixthkit or giantoy that were selling entire sets of necks.

How about $20?

And you?d think that would work?

It should. The Captain America necks are the longest I?ve seen.

The Stark head already has a ball joint inside of it, you have to remove that first.

If you don?t want to buy a longer neck piece you can always remove the socket inside the head and stick it on the neck joint. Then, reglue the socket on the head a little less deep than where it was initially. I have done this before and it works pretty well.

Sometimes if I need a longer neck, I just shove some tacky (not sure what it's called exactly but it's like the reusable 3M wall tack) in the base of the neck. It fills the void and still allows you to turn the head and sit mostly in place....works best when cover by a collar or clothing of course.

Also, could make your own neck back using sculpey or some polymer clay equivalent.
