BODY
My favoured trooper body is the Soldier Story S2. I would try other HT bodies but the cost is prohibitive. Anyway...as mentioned, the S2 body is wider in the hips and chest, and probably has broader shoulders. The joints are not as tight as HT but tight enough to hold any pose and have some ratcheting action.

Is this the Soldier Story S2 figure body your talking about?

Looks right. The ones I use are often parajumper bodies but I think the S2 designation is what matters.

Thats the SS 2.5. The shoulders are narrower and the arms not as bulky- probably a better choice than the 2.0 body for a Stormy.

Edit: forgot to add, the upper torso is soft plastic on the 2.5.

Upper torso and neck are also soft on the S2s.

Unless of course, I've been buying 2.5s labeled as S2s.

they must be 2.5s, the 2.0 had the bulky shoulders and hard plastic torso.

Excellent info! We'll have to amend the customizing notes.

Dumb question, what Stormie is the single one, the short or tall version?

I would like to know this as well.

Tall.

 

[slynger]

Tall.

Thanks buddy.

 

[Lejuan]

No probs - the height difference is shown in the specs.

I thought of that after the fact.

Both my troopers had paint defects on the helmet. I decided to live with one of them, but exchange the other. Sideshow offered an insulting $20 credit to keep the other. Sort of a disappointing conclusion to an otherwise great figure.

Someday, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to answer a dumb question. But until that day, consider my answer a gift.

Is it something FullMetalHippie's rub of toothpaste will fix?
