Hot Toys- new True-Type (Caucasian with narrowed shoulder)

[Cap'n Cook]

Yeh, true.

Tried kidding myself.

 

[Morbo]

I got one yesterday for putting Indy on. He looks so much better on this body than either the Pro or regular TT.

Hot from oven! Here's my Leon upgraded with new narrow shoulder TT
Note: I need to use his original neck post. The one come with packed body is bigger and I can't put his head on.

Left is on original TT Right on new TT

 

[Reinhardt]

wow, the difference while subtle, is still huge. looks much much better!!

 

[KBA]

I love this new body. Looks great on anything put on it. Just glad I don't have many figures to upgrade

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Such an improvement on that Leon! Here are the Joker shots as requested by lforigno:

 

[KBA]

Look really amazing snake

All you'd need from the DX is the coat

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Thanks buddy!!

The coat and possibly the shoes, think the DX ones are slightly more weathered.

 

[lforigno]

thanks buddy turned out great, but you are gonna have to get rid of that coat once the DX version comes out. Also what did you use to weather some of the purple coat? thanks

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Cheers man. Yes, for sure. After comparing to the proto DX pics, the coat does look better shaped.

Good eye! I just rubbed some dust into the lapel, cuff and hem areas of the coat, from the top of my cabinet.

If you send me $5.00 I can send you some.

Post pics please!

 

[Morbo]

Indy on the narrow TT body. the sideshow jacket still sucks though.

 

[FLOSI]

He looks good though! Not as square up top as he looks with a standard TT. Thank you for the pics too BTW.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

Indy definitely looks better on the narrow shoulders TT than the standard! Looks great, Morbo!

 

[samueljd]

Indy looks great on the narrow body. His shirt and jacket hang much better.

I just got one of these off ebay, and I wavered between the regular and this narrow shoulders version. I finally decided on the narrow shoulders cos from what I've seen, it looks the most natural under clothes. The regular version looks unnaturally wide-shouldered to me.

So what do you guys think? Has the regular shoulders version had its day? Are people only going for narrow shoulders or the slim version now?

I think the size of the head is a big factor. I just tried an older Sideshow head on a slim body the other day and it looked like a bobble head. The standard body made it look the right proportion.

The new slim shouldered version goes on sale soon!

This is the only thread where my question kinda fits, so here it goes: will DiD clothes (especially barack obama's clothes) fit on a Truetype (regular and narrow) ?
