    I've tried the FTC suit and belt on a t2 body and have the same "riding up" issue, so not really sure it's the body.

      Yep! It's definitely the body causing this belt issue. I had a spare Doc Mego body and put the outfit and head on that and the belt lined up perfectly. Looks really good like this too, so I'll keep him in this body.

        you beat me to it Tom lol
        On another body, it does look better.
        hiding that trunks/shirt seam with the belt makes the fig look perfect.

          Amen Chad. My belt was riding way high on that FTC body too, so this was a nice alternative. With that fix, I feel like these are a perfect set of figures, thus far. Great batting average for FTC all things considered.

            I just got my first FTC Batman figure in today. The accessories are well made and I was suprised by the non-squishie head. I think they did a overall pretty darn good job.
            The body definately needs to be changed though. I'll be putting him on a T2 later tonight.

              As soon as my type-s bodies come in, I'll be doing an upgrade.

                Thats true! Good idea. I might have to do that as well.

                  It's much better on a T2. The body it comes on really isnt to bad, I'll use it for something eles. Maybe it will be corrected at the waist sometime in the future.

                      I popped my Batman open, turned the belt around, looped in a small transparent hairband to elongate it, flipped it back for the buckle to be out front, and lowered it down to the black shorts' line. now it's perfect...only live once...

                        What if the belt was replaced with either a Mego or Dr. Mego belt,..would this help or are they all the same length?

                          I just did it, and it goes a little lower. Just not enough.
