I've had a eureka moment tonight. For a long time I've been wondering how to get a DX10 head onto this lightweight truetype that I've been using on my Harley (using a lighter truetype so as to avoid putting too much stress on the fragile Tamiya bike):



As you might be able to tell that's a NECA headsculpt above and although a very good low end sculpt it doesn't quite gel with my high end stuff - the DX10 head being a natural replacement.

So for ages I've been looking around at other lightweight bodies that could fit a DX10 head on them, with no success. It really does seem like the only body the DX10 head fits is the DX10 body. And I've just realised tonight, all I need is the upper torso sheath and internal neck adapter from a DX10. I was recently experimenting putting one of the upper torsos of an MMS117 body on top of the body of a smaller truetype to beef it up (which has become the new body for my movie poster T1) - I don't know why I didn't make the connection to my Harley figure until now.

But that's it, I'm finally going to have my Harley figure looking like a DX10 but having necessary lightness and added poseability. Of course its gonna mean spending more money though.

Can't wait to see it a-dev

That neca head is spot on pity it isn't better quality

Quality aside I'm not as fond of it as I used to be. I like the overall head shape, the hair and the fact its a sculpted neck. The face looks a bit funny from the front though. Then of course there's the sand-paper skin.

I did a test run of my plan last night and it should work. The figure ends up a little bit heavier but I think the bike can take it. The extra poseability is the greatest advantage, it allows for either the movie poster pose or actual realistic bike-riding with both hands on handlebars. And now I'll have a figure that doesn't look artificially bulked up as it was before with bubblewrap. Can't wait to get the parts.
 
And now you have the bug your wallet is going to take a mighty hit.

All joking aside I love the DX10 and the only problem that I have with him is he is a little on the young looking side but with the shades on he is pure win.
 
Trying out some new lights.
