    OK.., That's what I figured. I'm no stranger to 'mauling' retro bodies.

    (I'm the one who suggested here last year to pull off the arms and legs of the CVTV 1999 space-suited figures to remove that darn life support pack.. ...)

    Thanks much for the suggestion. I still have my first one that's ripped off, to use for a FC Johnny Storm custom.
    Peace.. Through Superior Firepower.

                    Yeah, I like that Aquaman head better than my old Johnny Storm sculpt. But the credit for this one goes to Brian Leitner...that Costume looks just like Mego could have made it.

                    Thanks again Brian, Dane

                        I know I'm a nerd, but I just LOVE having a Johnny Storm..!!

                        I love Brian's suit ~ Here I was buyin' up vintage megos when his looks super. I'll probably have him make me a red 70s suit as well.

                        Maybe it's only me.., but Arthur's head actually looks more 'Marvel' in expression than DC. Does that make any sense..?

                                    I love that head! I repainted it and made it into Hank Pym. Nice job!

                                        Spot on Johhny Storm! That Aquaman head is perfect, good thinking

                                            Another GREAT idea... I'm having a custom Ant-Man done, but will probably make my own mask-less YellowJacket with this head.
