    The extra breast sets are included. Talk about a good deal guys, you get an athletic female body and you get to pick the breast size! Sorry ladies, I just couldn't resist.

Trying to find the right balance between functionality and appearance was a little tricky but I'm very happy with the designs.
      Any pictures of how they look bent? Or a standing side-view?

        Unfortunately no. Being as this is a wax prototype the ability to pose it and make it stand correctly is somewhat difficult. It's also fragile and I found that out the hard way when I broke one the arms during an inspection. Once it gets to the point that I have an actual factory made prototype I'll post plenty of pics.

            Amen! These will be way too good to pass up for customizing.

            Hey Craig! Will they have a lot of playability? I think that there are going to be a lot of kids that will want some of these for their own, especially little girls.

            They may not care about the three different sizes of boobs, or the extra hands (those will probably be lost first if their parents aren't careful! LOL!)

            The things they will care about will be playability and durability, seeing as how kids can be very rough with their toys.

              I honestly can't say for sure what the level of playability will be with these bodies until I have an actual production piece in hand. Some of the joint mechanisms are pretty small and you've already mentioned the hands being lost easily. Also, and this is very important, the figures I'll be producing are in no way shape or form intended to be kids toys, they are adult collectibles. This is how I'm marketing them, and this is the direction I want to go in. That's not to say the blank bodies won't be durable, but I don't recommend using them for a child's toy.

                      Craig,

                      I made my nephew a Captain America on your Z body. They are very durable and have great posebility. I made my Daughter a Batman Brave and the bold on your body as well. No problems.

                          How long will the hair be on these bad girls?

                          Personally, I like LONG hair, as its more versatile than short hair.

                            The plan for now is that the figures will have long, straight hair.

                              Are curlers included?
                              I remember the days when Princess Leia came with free set of combs. Aaaah, just what a young lad wanted.....
