Dark Phoenix got She Hulks hair, with a few sculpted strands to make it symmetrical, a heavy black wash then dry brushed in red.
How does the big Elektra hair look on the new She-Hulk? It never fit right on Dark Phoenix and hoping a swap might?
I already had this hollowed out to fit Dark Phoenix' head, and even then She-Hulks big noggin was a tight fit. It may look better if it's scooped out more to sit just slightly lower. Did a quick mockup in photoshop to see what it looks like in green too.

Oh wow - Medusa! That does not work at all. But thank you for helping me not destroy figures to find out!
What a bummer.
Hopefully this is okay to ask this here, I am working on putting together a few customs for my display (mostly FOX X-men stuff), can anyone recommend a better base body for this DOFP Storm? Preferably something that is all black and lower end cost wise. Currently using Dani Moonstar. Thanks! https://imgur.com/a/EumkCdw
Darkstar could work. She's pretty cheap but she does have the yellow bits about the same place as that figure. I don't know many more of those bodies that would be black and cheap though.

Would that blond hair black widow mcu figure work? Kind of has the same look with the tac vest and whatnot.
shrank my Select Cap because I love him too much to not include in my legends display
Cut a portion from the calves down and used the 80th legends Cap boots, cut off the belt to give him a shorter waist and put the 80th Cap belt over the area
final result was a little bit shorter than 80th Thor and now fudgable into legends
Asking for a friend who's building a custom - anyone have any experience swapping the lower bodies on the old suit buck (Everett Ross/Professor X/Chameleon etc?). He needs black pants on a different upper body and I suggested a boil and pop swap but wasn't sure if those bodies were poorly designed for that kind of parts swapping.

I don’t think that will work. If swapping at the waist, they’re pretty locked in, not meant to be taken apart. Might be better off swapping at the thigh cut and painting the hip joints and pelvis.
@normdapito Thanks, Norm. He'd been planning on painting the whole lower body of an Arcade base body (swapping the shoes from a different buck) and I thought there had to be a better option. Though now that I Think about it, it might be easier to swap the head, arms, and overlay onto an old Tony or Coulson body since the torso is white.

I've not tried it, but would heating the shoulder joints allow them to be popped out? That way you could swap the arms and jacket onto the body you want. (I'm presuming gray pants with black jacket?) I gather he's not planning on changing the shirt or anything.
@thor-el They're trying to do black pants with white shirt and jacket, so they are planning to paint Arcade - probably the simplest option but I always reckon swapping for parts that are the right color is a more permanent solution if the option is there. I just suggested the arm swap option as a possibility, too.

I'm not sure exactly what he's making, but the upcoming Fresh Monkey Fiction The Spy might be a better option.
