Yea the body does kind of suck you have to do a little work to get it looking better I padded the body,popped the neck out so it sits higher,used dullcoat on the helmet and added way more blood to the damged face and i have him looking pretty good all depends on the pose you put him

He looks much better in hand than he does in pictures. It comes down to the pose with this figure. Though the suit is a bit restrictive you can do some great stuff with him. You just have to get a little rough. Don’t worry he’s Daredevil. He can take it. Mine is completely unmodified and I think he looks great

I would. He's a great figure. Plus, who knows how long we'll have this version around jumping from rooftops..

oof Don’t remind me. I really hope they don’t cancel it, I feel like Jessica and this have been the strongest characters so fingers crossed they stick around. Even if it’s on Disney’s streaming service.

I agree. Those were always the best in my opinion. Although, after season 2 of both Fist n Cage, I really wanna see where they were going to go.

Nice subtle pose, looks like he's in anguish/losing a battle.
I wanted to post these mods I did to Daredevil.
It pissed me off for over a year I was trying to convince myself I was ok with this thing. With his skinny fat physique, neckless bobblehead and his utterly ridiculous Depends. But season 3 gave me some inspiration to look at him again for the first time in ages. That and TA parting out the thing, I'm thinking; how the hell are they getting the suit off?
So I just got over myself and went at the damn thing and pulled off the suit! Took a lot of patience and inching it little by little but it came off and also went back on OK. (with the exception of the waist being stretched that popped right back into original shape when I hit it with a hairdryer. All the mods I made, I can actually revert back to the original figure 100 percent if I ever needed to.
credit goes to Freak member Gipetto0812 who had the idea to put it on a HT Deadpool body.
In fact this is the only option, that body along with Daredevil is tight jointed and engineered specifically to hold poses with the resistance of the plastic bodysuit. But the thing is that I felt he was still not quite the right build for Daredevil. So what I did was I dremeled the arms and shoulders, traps and and back lats down to fit his physique more accurately.
Finally I swapped the knees and below with the daredevil legs to ensure his height went back down shorter as it should be and the ankles fit properly, and I opened the backs of the bodies to swap out the deadpool neck ball plug with the original daredevil ball plug. this raised his neck ball almost level with his traps, which made it just the perfect height when the suit was put back on. I was elated as that was my number one beef with the figure (his stumpy neck).
I also stuffed a bit of cotton in the front of his pants, it's not really needed though. I just thought there had to be a reason why HT gave him Depends. Spoiler alert... there's not.
All said and done I now love the figure. HT really needs to invest in more /better bodies and not cheap out and re use the same crap, and a fat suit for a figure like this is a terrible idea. He's going to inevitably look, well, fat.

Interesting, what did you dremel exactly? Specifically about the traps. I have never done anything like that before.
I'm thinking about doing this. I love the character but the figure's build is atrocious.

How’d the suit come off? Any stitching that needs to be cut?
No you just gotta pull it off, that’s it!

Pull it off? Can you be a little more specific please? I tried myself and it was damn near impossible without the risk of tearing.

Really want to do this but I have no experience in taking apart figures and modding lol. Also I don’t have a spare Deadpool body laying around.
