Have you tried to put an old costume on this new body? I'm curious to see if they will fit well.Comment

I proceeded to remove the neck post from the new body. The head still fits fine but may feel a tiny bit looser. However, by removing the neck plug I made enough room to put a Mego head onto the Mattel body.
I put the EMCE Klingon head on the Mattel body. Its a bit tight. I can turn the head, but I needed to force it a little. I choose the Klingon head because it had a short neck plug. Heads with a longer neck plug will have to be cut down a little.
You can see the neck post in the upper right corner of the picture above. The hands and feet are also easy to swap out.
Here is the Klingon-Arrow all dressed up:
The neck plug on the Mattel bodies are that easy to remove?
That's FANTASTIC news, I'm completely excited again with this new line.

EXCELLENT job!! Good to know the Neckplug IS inter-changeable. My other concern was...would the Costume look baggy, but I can see that it fits GREAT! I'm happy now!
I still plan to try my switching just the "lower half" trick though...I like the bulked up Chest, Shoulders, & Biceps.sigpicComment

That's not a good thing. Hopefully, as the design changes for wave 2, they could fix it. Poseability is key to any action figure line.Comment

neck plug design is very reminiciant of MOTU figures. good to see that I can transfer him to a mego body too.Last edited by bizzaro megomauler; Jan 2, '10, 2:14 PM.Comment
