      Currently there are no plans to have more suits made.

        I really like the reshaped shoulders. Would be something else if you guys released a new neck piece to go with the new limbs!

          A new neck piece was on the drawing board but that might change in favor of developing a Type S version 2.0, which would be a completely new body.

            Not that there is anything wrong with the current body, but I vote for this!

            I would like to see the hips be a little slimmer.

                how about a female S-type??? we need one for the females that's compatible for Mego and FTC

                Yvonne is great, but you can't swap a Mego or FTC head onto one

                  I second the request for a female S-type body. And then possible a teen one too. Kickstarter anybody?

                    The Type S 2.0 body would be completely redesigned and much more modern in both appearance and articulation. As for the compatibility issue with the Yvonne body and MEGO/FTC heads, another chest piece with the correct neck design is all that's needed for that.

                    Just to be clear though, neither of these projects are currently in the works. I've got my plate full with the 4" Captain Action line.

                          I received the new samples today and everything checked out fine. Production should start next week and the upgrade kits will hopefully be in stock before the end of the month.

                              Super excited about the upgrade kits!

                              By the way, someone else asked, but I saw no reply: will these upgrade kits be made available in clear and glow in the dark? Thanks in advance!

                                I didn't see the question before, sorry about that. Anyway, for now I'm just testing the waters with the Caucasian versions. If they do well it's possible that other colors will be offered at some point.
