    Where is that body located? I've tired to find it so I can have them ready for my Cap set. Which body should I get for the Spider-Man set?

        I've heard people mention the Type S body. Can you tell me more about them and how much they are?

          Go here http://8inchsuperstore.com/ should be on home page and they run $10 each.

          I recently used one in my Danny Ketch Ghost Rider custom and I am hooked on them. I recently bought three more for other customs I have in the pipeline.

            It's right on Doc Mego site under bodies. To me it's better than the Type S...because of the big shoulders and swivel bicep's. Captain America HAS TO have big arms!

              Agreed, I too will be using Doc's buff body to display the updated Cap outfit. Steve Rogers will be displayed on a Type 'S' though...unless Doc gets his bandless bodies out before the Cap sets ship and then I will be using that for Steve.

                I'm a little surprised that Steve Rogers doesn't have a Tommy gun or a .45.

                      Well---that settles it, I vote EMCE a win over FTC...

                      ....as within only TWO upcoming release pics they've highly stoked my attention with new alter-egos and VERY Megoey modernesque variations alongside fine replicaesque pieces (whereas FTC has released quite a bit of sizzle along with their admittedly passable steak in their DC stable). No jumpstarting the line with Jarvis figures here in EMCE-land as far as I can see.

                      Seriously though, EMCE & Doc, great work done within a lot of apparent limitations handed down from "corporate".

                        EMCE will definitely be better just because their bodies will be much better than FTC....plus,it's MARVEL

                        The New Classic Cap looks amazing...

                          tell that to my 4 or 5 EMCE Trek figures with cracked open chests.

                            been away for a bit - is there any updates to when these will be coming out?

                              It's matter of time before the FTC Bodies start doing the same thing, but it doesn't matter to me,mine are going on S Type bodies .......

                                they won't do that because they are one piece construction.
