    Retro Action heads on Hasbro 9" bodies?

    Is it true they fit? I can't remeber who told me they were in scale, are they?

    I wanted to do a Two Face and Luthor custom.

    Anybody tried this ? Pictures?

    Have not heard that. It would be cool if they did. I am not big fan of the Hasbro 9 inchers, although I do have most of them. I'll have to visit the 'ol storage and compare.

        I checked a Pic a member sent me and it looks okay. I am planning on using Clark Kents suit for Luthor . The only adjustment I'll have to do is put shoulderpads in the jacket to shorten the apperance of the neck.

          Hmmm, from what I've heard it'll look like crap

              Hey, just saying. But think about it: an 8" head on a 9" body? The head will look way too small. I've tried it the other way around once and it doesn't work either

                From the pic I got It will work when I build up the shoulder pads in Clark Kents suit.
                Luthor looks very young anyway. We'll see in a few days.

                  I think the retro heads work fine on the 9"body, one just needs to get creative with the hands and clothing. Unfortunately, the retro clothes don't fit the Hasbro 9" body nor do the hands. In Dave's custom, I thIink he is going for the Business Suit "Lex" which should work. One suggestion Dave, if you have an extra FC Toad use the padding from that if you are using an extra Hasbro 9" Bruce Wayne suit for Lex.

                  By the way, the mego type 2 hand will fit into the Hasbro 9" body.
