    Marvel Famous Covers Origins

    I know I saw this discussed somewhere before, but I can't find the thread. Do Marvel's Famous Covers and Spider Man Origins outfits fit 8" Mego bodies? I know the Famous Covers are little bigger since they are 9", but the Origins are listed at 8". Just curious. Thanks.

    some people use them, but they are really loose.

      Actually, I found that the FC Spidergirl outfit fits perfectly on a male T2 Mego body, thus making a great Ben Reilly Spider-Man custom

        Oh, that reminds me, I still have to pick up a Spidergirl and Iron Man.. I know Wrath here used the Hawkeye outfit, since the fabric usually shrinks down a tad when put on the smaller bodies.

        I agree with Lonnie, they still won't be as tight as Mego outfits, but do offer some nice inexpensive variety.

          Hmmmm....

          You can probably take them in enough to fix the fit.

            I am thinking the same thing, just stitch them up a little in the back and the sleeves to make them tighter. I am working on this same concept with a few Playmates Kirks for different shirts, since they are a little bigger. I didn't want to spend a bunch of money on the Marvel figures if the outfits didn't work.

              I made this punisher using one of the spider-man origins outfits.
