    CTVT skinny bodies???

    Has anyone used them or own them? I'm thinking they might work for some customs I want to do and thinking somebody here can give me a rough idea of their quality

    I like them. I restrung mine with tighter shock cord and I do this with all bodies. Out of bag they are great too. The neck is small so you might need to adjust the neck plug of a head accordingly.

      SeattleEd, I'm curious if you were able to figure out how to re-string them so the feet don't touch: I'm particularly wondering about the angle of the striking at the hips. Kindly post a pic or let me know your thoughts. I really love the look of these bodies.

        Same here! I wonder if any of these methods would work for the skinny bodies:

        2 methods here:


        1 method here:
        A few people suggested I should re-string my MEGO Dr Zaius to help bring his legs together. So in this video I show you how to re-string a vintage type 1 MEG...


        I hate the way their feet are so close to each other so the figure barely can stand on its own.

          The legs are a real problem; I have a couple of customs I want to use this body for, and those legs are a big hurdle. May try the floral tape trick; if I place it right, it shouldn't show through the material (I can imagine the questions it would raise of General Immortus was showing off a set of pantie lines).

            wonder if tool dip would work as well, its rubbery and should provide the needed friction
