The Mattel Darkseid is a regular Mattel 8" body. The bulk comes from padding in the clothing. I don't think a Muscle body would work with the bootsComment

True. The best thing I have come up with is to use Famous Covers boots, boiling them to soften them up in conjunction with shaving the width of the foot on the muscle body.Comment

Or you could go with a Brock Body - with the Mattel DS padded pants - Might give you the size you are looking for."Where Does He Get Those Wonderful Toys?"Comment

Although there isn't much use for them other than Grey, Red and Green Hulks, of all the bodies they produce they are their best produced bodies.Comment

I have purchased a couple of the flesh colored muscle bodies. They are indeed the same as the Hulk and Thing bodies.
IMO, they are prime to be redone with the snap off boots and gloves similar to the 66 line. It would be a great improvement for FTC to jump on.
