One of my favorites, but the only downside is that it's very small compared to the more recent 1/6 offerings (last I checked AoU/CW Cap dwarfs him). A newer body would be nice, but I doubt the existing leather jacket would fit.
 
I have an extra body and was hoping to us it to display the Schmitt head. The problem is, the ball joint on the body is way bigger than the socket in the neck. Is there any way to make this work without altering/damaging the Schmitt head?

Out of all the three HT CA movie villain figures, the Red Skull is the best.

swapping the neck plug would be the best bet. otherwise get another red skull body (which I am coincidentally selling on the forums [emoji1] )

I was looking at plugs on eBay but none of them say what size socket they fit. You have any idea what I should be looking for?

the plug that comes with the Johann Schmidt head and the red skull head fits hot toys slim bodies I believe. so using any regular or generic plug might work on Schmidt, BUT it might be a struggle to swap the bigger plug with the smaller one the head comes with. I don't think it's impossible though.

Yeah, that's what I was afraid of. I saw plenty of plugs on eBay but non of them specify the size of the socket...

Red Skull is a phenominal figure. Both headsculpts are excellent. You will be after some secondary wardrobes for the other sculpt Soon. Both looks are great on the shelf.

Congats!
 
Both sculpts are excellent indeed. I went with the Johann Schmidt one on mine because even though the character is called Red Skull, the detail and the likeness to Weaving in the Schmidt sculpt is too incredible to not display.
