So what's the mod list on this? Snip threads holding hood piece in place is a given... What else?

well THIS happened... grumble... not a big deal... but ugh.
Really how did that happen. The fact you have the hood off leads to believe it wasn't from that..was it?

LOL!!! hood off was no problem... I pulled the head off to put the hood back on, and the helmet came off the supports... might mod the helmet a bit, and put a chin in there... just a thought.
I can't speak for what everyone else has done but I personally..
1. Cut the threads that attached the shawl to the back, shoulders and front chest
2. snipped the threads on the two edges of the hood, including the bottom of hood
3. Stripped the figure down to the TT
Resemble
1. tucked the shirt into the cargo pants as deep as I can to rid of sagging material around the belt and hips
2. Made sure to pull the tunic as low as I can get so it didn't bunch up around the waist
3. I also noticed that the cuffs of the pants were riding high over the extended leg posts so I made sure I pulled them down over so they covered the leg posts
Water treatment: Sprayed water all over the robes including the inner robes, ringed it out smooth and then I sprayed water all over the hood and shawl to get rid of the tacky feeling when I futz with his hood
Even after every part of the robe was smooth and wrinkle free, I put the robes back on but still made sure to pull the pants down securely onto the boots and still futzed with the tunic, tugging and pulling it so it didn't ride up or bunch out while I was putting the belt back on.
It's whatever any of us feel they choose or want to do, it's their figure and their decision, these are the steps I took and I am more than pleased with the results.

Hey rhboyd since you have the helmet off could you possibly take a pic of the inside of the helmet for future reference?

sure thing! here you go!
Ah that's what it looks like underneath. So they took the mesh in the visor and covered it up with a plastic cover

Id love to see this mod if you do it! The hollow helmet with no chin is the only thing that Im really not digging on the figure (don't get me wrong, I love the figure and am happy to have it, just feel the bottom of his helmet shouldn't just be an empty hole lol)

Perfect.
Thank you, Guyver!

Anyone planning to add a chin to the helmet, use black sugru. For those that don't know, it's a very moldable putty that turns into hard rubber once cured in 24 hours. Available at lowes and even Amazon.

He will look totally different in VIII. If you liked him in VII then you have to get the VII version. Maybe this isn't the definitive version of the VII Ren but it may be.

What does "definitive" version even mean?
There was only one version of Kylo Ren on Episode 7: this one is the one and only version.
It's not like IronMan, where we're getting multiple versions of the character from a single movie.
