    Here is a 360 turnaround of the new adult male EMCE body.
    Oh man, from the looks of it in the turnaround, it's going to have swiveling ankles? I hate those. I much prefer the way Mego did the ankles so that they only turn with the rest of the leg in relation to the hip's orientation... pretty much like a real leg. Swiveling ankles just look weird to me and I just don't like their function.

        I'm afraid he's right... Hope you can edit it, we were love to see new pics comes out.

        Take your time, thanks for trying to make new Male body.

          Well, I admit that it does need a certain amount of tweaking, but since Doc is a genius at this sort of stuff, the end result will be excellent!

              The more I look at these new bodies of Doc's, the more ideas I'm getting for customs. Especially the female bodies - they look MUCH better than what Mego originally came up with.

It shall be life."

                Better Female Chest articulation so you can make Midriff showing Characters with no Ball Joint.

                  Looking at the prototype of the male teen figure (?), the forearms aren't bulky enough, and the legs look awfully skinny, while the torso is massive.

                  Still, it's not October yet, so we have a while to wait while the tweaking is done.

                      Well, looking at the picture, I can't enlarge it but so much. It could be that the perspective is off a bit.

                          Really doesn't look as Mego-y as other bodies. The musculature is way off.

                          The hip articulation is much improved, but I like Castaway's torso better.

                          I will reserve final judgement until I have both in hand. But am excited o see what's coming.

                            I'll get behind anything that doesn't have rubber bands. It is pretty much what kept me from customizing in this scale at all.

                              I just want to let everyone here know that I have been working on the male, female, and teen bodies in 3D for four months now.
                              These bodies are going to the factory for tooling in July and I expect to have production done by October - hopefully in time to
                              show at New York Comicon. The bodies will retail for $5.00 each and I am not asking anyone to give me any money before the
                              bodies are in stock and ready to ship.
                              Hey Doc - just wondering if everything is still on track for these new bodies being available in October?

                                Me too - planning on buying a few of 'em, especially the female bodies!
