    I did a body comparison when the Spidey and Cap sets came out to see how other 12 inch bodies worked with the suits. I seem to recall the modern super articulated Joe body was a pretty good fit. That may have a bit more bicep for you.

      Those boots and helmet look like they would be great on an original Thor mego... do you know if they would fit that figure?

        These are 12" figures. Not mego scale.

                Nor are Jets fans.

                I have all of these obtained as Christmas gifts. It will be fun knowing I can open them Christmas morning along with some BBP goodness as well.

                  how does the new suits fit on the Playing mantis body? I was told the new body is a bit shorter than the playing mantis.

                    the new sets do fit the super articulated Joe bodies, I have my cap set displayed on a blond haired Joe. I picked up the Dr Evil and loki sets today at TRU. really cool. I was disappointed that the trident did not come in the basic set though.
                    they did not have Thor or I would have gotten that too. maybe next time. I noticed they did not have any Spidey or Cap sets either.....are they still shipping those or have they stopped while new product comes out?

                        oh - and now that I realize there is an antman, I want a puffy suit CA Hulk with a Wasp somewhere in the accessory tray.

                          OK, it's nice to know that these can work w/ the Playing Mantis body, as I have a PM Cap as Green Hornet. What about the add on hands and things? Are they easy swaps w/ the Playing Mantis body?

                            For the new accessory gloves/hands, you have to pull the hands from the old style bodies. They come out fairly easily if you warm them up a bit with some hot water. Then the gloves push on to the forearms and can be posed just fine.

                              the same works with the joe bodies although you might have to actually break the hand out, but once done the gloves hold on just fine with compression
