Hot Toys MMS243 - 1/6th scale Captain America & Steve Rogers

[Brainiac]

Word in the shipping thread is these are starting to trickle in slowly. How many and how often I dunno.

interesting... arent the port workers doing a slowdown and not an outright strike.... I imagine they would have to get to SSC shipments at some point

On another topic I have my cap 2 pack and i. Also have the reeves body can anyone elaborate if when I cut away the excess on the superman reeves body what I will need to do to the cap headsculpt to make it fit. Since Hyatt who posted does not answe his pms until the year 2050 LOLA no joke seriously. But would be great if anyone can reckon how he got the headsculpt to sit inside the Christopher reeves superman body.

I had comments on the Reeve body on my Super Soldier Cap that the body was too small(It looks great in person, but manages to look too skinny on camera). You might be able to get Roadblock or Barney Ross as better substitutes. Your Reeve body will always fetch a good price, or work for other customs.
I am not sure if the Reeve body would work, even with the normal neck removed. But there's a relatively easy way to find out.

From SSC?

The Cap 2 packs and a handful of other things have started to trickle in to SSC, I confirmed that with them yesterday. So some of these will be going out soon. Don't know when though. They have only received a partial shipment so far.

Just got my notice for Cap but of course like the rest of you it'll arrive in the warehouse 5-7 weeks.

Go look at Hyatts Custom for cap using reeves body it will surprise you along with the stealth cap suit

According to Alter Ego, their STRIKE suit is coming soon, which means the next 3 weeks or so. But that's just for the single STRIKE suit. I hope the two pack comes in soon.

I got the 5-7 week notice from SSC only a week ago, so if that's the case that's odd, unless the STRIKE was planned to come out first

I spoke to them about my Spooktacular win today and they had this to say, "We’re receiving partial shipments of him right now, so you should hear from them after the orders are fulfilled. Yay!" Pretty much confirming what everyone else is saying.

Here.

Now this is what you call a masterpiece, the stock figure is garbage compared to this. However, not sure if it is just the angles the pictures are taken on but ironically the V shape isn't really noticeable except on the side shots. Just going by these pictures I think the V shape on mine is more noticeable but the trouble is removing the fat suit on the lower ab area makes the suit hang loose in that area so it doesn't have quite the same tight fit look as Hyatt's one. At first I thought he removed the fat suit but the ab area is sunken in and on the stock figure, it is as flat as a board, so not sure if he kept the fat suit on or not, but keeping it on would explain the lack of V shape in his pics, since the fat suit distorts the shape of the torso, regardless how big the body is on it.

How did he mod the neck of the Supes body

That's the million dollar question, we can get an idea from looking at these pics.

This figure continues to impress me! Def one of Hot Toy's best. I'm so happy with it that I'm not even thinking of modding it. I've modded many other figures, but I really feel as if it looks great as it is.

I am happy that you like it, but I am the total opposite I never mod any figures but I am so disappointed in this figure that I finding out ways to mod it to my liking. No way could I leave this stock with a torso like this.



No human being has a torso that straight, it just looks odd.

Yeah man it's just personal preference for me, I would rather be like you though and be content with the figure as it is because modding it is a pain in the ass.
