    Battling Rocky Balboa FistFighting Edition

    Got a couple of the FF bodies as free gifts from CTVT and got the Sly head and accessories in a trade. One homebrew head connector and c'est fini!

    The other body is going into a pot of brown dye and wait for an Ali set.

            Terrific idea. My only suggestion is that you may want to add a little slit for the button so the trunks don't need to ride low.

              I had considered that or even just making a new pair of trunks.

                Now this was what the FF idea was made for!

                That's a perfect idea for this figure.

                    It was a little tricky adding a Mego 2.0 head to a traditional style FF body. I couldn't use the adapters that work by opening up the body and the torso is a brittle plastic that wouldn't allow the warm water stretched neck hole treatment. Plus the FF mechanism is very close to the neck hole so anything used had to be almost zero intrusion into the cavity.

                      such an obvious modification I am sure Mego is hitting themselves right now.
