So, when I first started getting into 8 inch Mego style figures... I bought a deluxe Type S body to utilize in my Conan custom.
Only to find that the flesh is super pale compared to the head they sell for their Barbarian stuff. SO I ended up shelving it. Until I got my hands on a ZICA body.
Fast forward a couple of years, and as my collection and custom works grew, I'd always bought the deluxe body with the double jointed knees and elbows though because I figured, "hey...more joints more posability."
but I got curious and bought the red regular Type S for my Devil figure since he'll be wearing a suit anyway and I gotta say... I kind of prefer the regular body over the deluxe.
The deluxe joints just seem a lot more...floppy. Sure I wish the shoulders were a bit bigger on the regular, but I don't think the upgrades are necessary anymore.
What do you guys think?
