    While drinking to work I was thinking...

    Any chance that the interchangeable, more muscular parts for the Type S body will resemble the original ZICA body? That would be really cool to be able to build your own, since the rights have been sold. Just make the arms, legs, and a similar chest. Diamond isn't doing anything with the body, and that's a shame.

        YOU STOLE MY OPENING LINE!!!!

        Anyway, like he said.

        And the torso on the ZICA original was VERY well detailed. Unless we start making our own, I think we are S.O.L.

            David was saying that there will be interchangeable, bigger arms, and chests, etc.
            So, I was thinking if they were styled after the ZICA body, you could create you own.

              Body modification pieces like more muscular torsos, legs and arms are on the drawing board. However, there are several other things that need to get done first before development starts on something like that.

                Hey Craig,
                That was one of the things I remember, because it was exciting. Being able to customize the Type S to the character that you are building.
                I'm just throwing the idea of the ZICA style parts out there, because that body was awesome in it's own right.
                It would be the ultimate ZICA / Cast-A-Way combo if you could Frankenstein the parts together like that!

                  There were some issues with the original ZICA body that I wanted to change but what we have in mind for a modification kit would be fairly similar.

                        That would be a cool idea for characters that a scrawny, or skinny, like the Vulture! Mine is already on a T1 body, but it would be more articulated with the Type S.
