THIS IS THE WORST FIGURE EVER CREATED IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE. NO FIGURE WILL EVER SUCk AS HARD AS THIS ONE! Way to fail HT! :mad:
 
True types become smaller when you have to connect shoes to them that don't require feet
Eg. Tony Stark shoes that came with the Hot Toys suit.
That could account for the differing heights

Maybe so, but when you have the Narrow Shoulder TT (or even a normal TT) next to a Slim TT (both with standard feet) the Slim TT is about an inch shorter. Let's put it like this: Most of the people over at ToyWorld have been using Slim TT's to replace their old Medicom bodies. And you know Medicom figures (in general) are way shorter than True Types.

*EDIT

Ok here we go: From YOUR Left to Right - Slim TT, Narrow Shoulder TT & Regular TT

In this pic^^^ you can see even if the Slim TT had shoes (that the ankle post plugs into) it would still be considerably shorter than a Narrow Shoulder or Regular TT.

The giraffe neck actually looks quiet good when clothed
 
I think a significant cause of height difference on the Slim comes from the neck post that's included. When I swapped my Jack Sparrow onto a slim, the height difference from the regular TT was minimal compared to those shots, but I took the neck post from the orignal figure body. I didn't check the height but the neck is slimmer on the Slim TT also and it wouldn't work with the size of Jack's head so I stuck with the one that did and I'm guessing it must be taller as well as thicker to cause the minimal difference in heights. I imagine Joker on a Slim wouldn't be too much shorter than Joker on the regular and Narrow.

This is a perfect example of why I dislike the BR head's eyes, to get them looking where they are in this photo you have to tilt his head like this and it looks unnatural, I'm going to love the PERS.

Do you think it'd be possible to put PERS in the BR head.

Someone with enough sculpting/cutting skills can probably pull it off, but it's not going to be easy.

You have to cut away the hair and either add sculpt or be really goo with your cuts so you can make the hair go back as seemlessly as the DX head, you have to hollow the face and cut out the eyes a certain ammount to fit the gear.

It's also possible that where the PERS eyes line up may not match with the BR head when you try to put it in either, if the DX eyes are more open the iris may line up fine for those but not the BR.

To me, you'd be better off repainting the DX head to look like the BR than to try throwing the PERS into the BR head.
