    Hey guys! Need some help with photos

    I've put Darkseid on a Famous Covers Thor body- loved how it turned out- but can't get the pics posted!!! If someone can go to my Facebook page (Darryl Love from Ennis TX), look on my wall, and post those 3 pics, I'll owe you one! Thanks fellas!!

      Thanks for posting this, buddy! I'd like to make the head sit a little lower, and add a cape when I find some matching fabric.

        I thought about this, but wasn't sure it would fit. Thank goodness for soft plastic and spandex!

          Exactly! I had to cut out the padding without tearing the seams, and put the suit on the FC body very carefully. The boots fit just fine, but I had to put on smaller hands to make the gloves fit.

                If they make Solomon Grundy, I'll try this with him.

                  Looks pretty good on the FC body.

                          You're idea was perfect!
                          Except I kept the padding in the Darkseid figure and transferred the suit, boots and gloves to the 9" Famous Covers figure.
                          I didn't use the Thor figure, I used the Captain America sized one.
                          I had to remove the hands because they didn't fit inside the gloves and I packed them with clay.

                          I had to also properly readjust the skirt and belt because the blue part went up and his gray parts of his butt were hanging out.

                          This is my result. Thanks again for the idea!!
                          As seen standing next to my Superman. I love the new Superman costume (that is about it). The rest of the original Superman I kept (the head). That Mattel Superman head does not do it for me. It just looks wrong. I can't picture anything else being Superman (I think I may be stuck/hooked on the original head) so I also put the Mattel Superman costume on my new beefy 8 inch body, because Superman needs to be beefy.

                          Here they both are...

                            Looks good, pal! And I feel the same way about Mego's Superman sculpt. But I love this line! I now have 8 factory made DC villains and 3 heroes that Mego never made, and more to come.

                              That turned out really well! Great job.
                              If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.
