      This is a great kit. Now you just need a T1 torso for the slimmer look.

          Personally, I would like to see a bigger chest piece!

            I agree! But I still think the "buffed up" arms and legs are a GREAT idea!

              Has there been any interest from different properties owners to license the new body to make figures of their characters? I thought we might have seen a few licensed characters get the new body treatment by now (if that is an option?).

                Unfortunately no, but the body is definitely available to any companies that want to use it.

                  I'll definitely invest in this upgrade kit. And while I'm appreciative and excited about these, what would really get me fired up would be better neck articulation. Right now, 1/9 scale is just swivel, no tilt. We really need that to get at realistic poses.

                    I've already got something on the drawing board for that but it would use a ball and socket design similar to what NECA has on their 1/9 scale figures.

                      I'm looking forward to seeing what you've come up with!

                        The neck modification is something I am really looking forward to, as well.

                          I would definitely swap Superman or any flying character onto a body with the neck modification.

                          Even Batman, looking up, or down at Gotham from a building would be a cool pose.

                                Yes, I'm actually waiting on some samples now. Assuming they're approved, production will begin shortly after.
