depends entirely on what arms to what body. can you be more specific on what you're attempting to do?
the short answer, however, is likely very hard.

Need to ask Scifi67 how to do this. He did it for his RocknRoll V2. I'm looking at doing the same thing......

I want the swap the arms on the muscle pro with the old wide shoulder true type.
Its not hard, but the pro might be rendered useless. The problem being is that the pro doesnt have screws like the HT TT. You have to crack the body open. So its hard to put back together. If breaking the pro body is not an issue, you just have open the TT and unscrew the shoulder joints and put the Pro muscle arms on. Ill try to post pics of the swap tomorrow. I left the body at work.

That stinks. Might you be able to glue the pro back together?
Actually, yes you can. If you are carefull when you crack it open.

Does anyone know whether the new HT TT Advanced bodies have Short Neck Syndrome when wearing uniforms? I tried putting an ACI military sweater on an ACE body w/ HT's Jack Krauser head to bash a custom Beach Head, but the neck disappears under the sweater. It looks like others have swapped out the Pro body for a TT 19 muscular and have had good results. I'd just hate to invest the $$ into a TT body if the figure looks neckless. Thanks!

Insufferable S.O.B.
It prolly will.
The holes in the SS heads are drilled deeper, so the SS long necks are needed. I always grab a few for future use when I see them go up. You can use some plyers to pull the head plunger down a bit to look better on the short necks. Use some epoxy to fill the space.
I would use a advance over a muscle body as well.

Please do.
I got my snake eyes' muscle armed pro body. It's cool and all but the abdomen is loose so it flops back and forth.
Here are the pics of the moded HT Captain America First Avenger body, with RnR's arms.

Nice pics otm. Do the ht arms fit well into the pro?
I don't think so because the pro has a slot for the ball joint to fit perfectly into, which would be missing on the TT. To be honest I didnt try it. come to think of it, I dont know if the pro has that kind of "ball" slot inside for all the arms or just the muscle ones.
BTW, I would suggest trying to make the ball on the peg smaller. Somebody else did that and they said it had better movement. I will probably do that myself. I just noticed that when I move the left arm, the neck moves as well.

After seeing his original transplant I went for it too, I moved RnR arms to a TT advance body and it came out great.

Need some advice here folks. I have a MIB RnR, and I can't decide if I want to part it out, or trade it. Any money I make from parting it out is going to go towards a Dusty or a Viper (of any condition really, MIB or not). I just can't decide what I want to do.
