    A quick question about the S-body...

    Are the newer glove hands CTVT makes compatible with the type S forearms? I know the body comes with some hand options but I was hoping to use the new color hands from CTVT. I noticed that newer Distinctive Dummies customs are coming with an S body, and that the Van Helsing has black glove hands. I'd be curious to know where they came from.

    Unfortunately since the Fig Inc body isn't in perfect scale with the original type two, like the type S body, their posts are too small.
    A snippet of shrink tubing will do the trick to convert their posts and use their hands. The Types S hands can be painted or dyed very easily, I suspect that's how Martin got black hands for Van Helsing.

      Thanks Dave. That helps. I presume DD's heads are resin which makes the S-bodies optimal for attachment because of the screws?
