    12 inch FTC Clark Kent VS 12 inch Mego Superman Question

    Could the clothes and glasses of the 12 inch FTC Clark Kent fit on the original 12 inch Mego Superman? I was pondering if I could customize a 12 inch Clark Kent from the Christopher Reeve Superman figure. Inquiring mind wants to know,

    The glasses probably won’t work well as the Reeves Superman head doesn’t have exposed ears.

    The FTC 12” body is the smaller one (used on vintage KISS, comic style Superman) as opposed to the really muscular body (used on magnetic Batman, Buck Rogers) so the clothes would probably fit if the Reeves body is the smaller one.
    Expectation is the death of discovery.

      Wouldn't there be an issue with the clothes because FTC's are 12" and Mego is 12.5"? Or was that just the Parkdale figures that were 12.5"?

        FTC repro’ed the production Mego body, so it’s theoretically the same, but there definitely could be some shrinkage.

        I have a set of the FTC 12” Kiss figures and I didn’t notice much size difference between those and my Mego originals. There could be, however. I didn’t measure them or anything.
