    Try getting cheap Lion Rock soldiers on ebay. ones with ripped uniforms and no other items. They are the same size.

      I'm surprised that no one has ever made a repro 7 inch body.

          Thank you guys, yes, I was told the CTVT 6 inch bodies are the ones to go with, they will be 7 inch with the head. unfortunately they only have the brown body one available, but they do have the flesh toned one available if you buy it clothes for an extra 4 bucks... I guess beggers can't be choosers lol

            Thank you. I've been considering making custom Teen Titans in the Filmation style. Ordered both the '6 inch brown male body' and 'boy outfit with 6 inch body' last week. If CTVT's lightening fast shipping holds out, I wouldn't be surprised to have them as soon as tomorrow. I have a original naked Kid Flash to compare.
            I keep requesting 6 inch bodies from CTVT with my orders. If only someone would offer a 9 inch Mego variations (male and female).
            Thank you bobws, for your tip on incomplete Lion Rock soldiers. I don't seem to consider this when I'm shopping around. It's nice to have good info, driven home with reminders like this.

              CTVT bodies are smaller then the Lion Rock. Here is an example - Robin is a Lion Rock body with a youth head and Billy Batson is a CTVT Bud Bundy body with an Aqualad head.

                What do y'all think? i think the teen body is too short anyways. Standing next to an adult figure the Teen Titans look more like preteens, around 11,12 years old.
                To really look like teen i think they should be about 7 and 1/2 inches tall.
                That's why for my Titans i made them all in 8" size to match Robin. Well Beast Boy i made both sizes as he was younger.
                Not to mention it's easy getting bodies for the full size figures.

                  What do I think? I think it's too late to cancel my order, and that makes me angry. Very angry. Cyclops no like smaller variation in scale! Cyclops smash! Cyclops destroy! Arrrrggh! Cyclops rage!...Did I turn green there for a minute? No? Not even a little? No? Really? Ok.

                    The Head on that Robin is Huge compaired to Billy.
                    Also , arn't those Boots and Gloves for 8inch ?.... They look really big on that Body too.
                    I think CTVT Teen Bodies are great for Scale.

                      I used to use them for teens, but I find that the plain Marvel Legends bodies like Angel or Black Panther work better and give me a better range of posing. They match up perfect with CTVT's teen body.
