    Muscular body type question

    Just wondering if a sleeveless torso jumpsuit would fit comfortably over a classic muscular body type torso.

    I'm pretty sure a regular full body suit pattern won't, unless the fabric used has got a heck of a lot of stretch to it to fit over the thicker arms and legs.

    I cannot definitively answer this, but I have tried to put a FTC torso jumpsuit over a full body suit on a Type S body. It fits, but it's snug and does not come all the way up the the neckline, which was a bummer for me. So I don't think it would fir on a classic muscular body. At least not one from FTC.

      Good to know. Thanks for the reply!

      As a follow-up question: Does any head fit well on a muscular type body? I'm trying to remember if the Hulk and Thing heads had thicker neck "stoppers" or were all the necks and torso "head holes" a standard size for the 8-inch line?

        Good question. I’m not 100% sure, but they may have been just a bit slightly thicker for the muscle bodies. I found an original mego Hulk head on ebay, the neck plug kind of looks thicker in the pic, tough to tell since the seller ruined it by painting it red.

        Its definitely bigger than the earlier type 1 neck plugs.
