1:18 Figure customizing question

Post by spect_spidey » Sun Mar 26, 2006 11:31 pm

I was wondering if anyone has tried to use the 21st Century USMC waist and legs on a 21st Century Japanese torso? Do they work together? If so does anyone have pics? What about the USMC heads, do they work on the Japanese torsos? The reason I ask is I was wanting to do some Sgt. Rock Easy Comapny & Sgt. Fury Howling Commandos customs and it looks like the Lt. Watanabe torso with Barman Belluchi waist/legs is gonna be the closest uniform match I can find for these unless someone out there has a few Vietnam Huey pilots or Vietnam Mutt drivers they would like to donate to the cause. :D

Nope, I've only switched heads on figures, but have not switched Japanese heads with Marines yet.

I Love the Sgt Rock & Easy idea mate though alas i don`t have any of the Marines or Japanese so cannot try.

Why not try it yourself with the Boil & Pop method? Then report back.

Someone has to make that first step sometime :D

Now you`ve suggested that having SGT Rock would be great & maybe if ever i pick Marines & Japanese up I may give this a go.
