time for me to share mine! I ended up just going for the Tuco head, which is awesome! and ended up combining rainman and iminime outfits for Angel Eyes. It was tough to pick which parts I liked better cause they were both terrific outfits, but this is what I decided on.

also, as per Ray's great suggestion, I put Tuco on an Enterbay scarface body, and modded the neck and feet to fit. I love the result in terms of body build and height!

Nice set up brother. Rainman' Tuco outfit is slimmer than this one so it works really well on the BW bod. That looks great! Perfect height for the bandito :clap. I like your mix & match with Angel Eyes too. I'm surprised you favored Iminime's jacket though. That's my biggest gripe with the AE set.

What was needed to be done to the neck and feet?
 
My poncho futzing skills are right where I need them to be :lol Thanks buddy :hi5:

:lol

Looking forward to what you do with Tuco. I'm gonna port AE over to a narrow TT and see how he looks next. I might just leave Tuco as is for now.display.

If tomorrow turns out to be the soaker + hurricane that they're predicting, I'll have a lot of time to get to the bottom of these guys. Praying for rain :pray:
 
Having owned both AE's, I think the Iminime jacket is way better. The RM one was almost felt - it looked very inaccurate.

I never saw it in person but I see what you mean about the material. In pics it looks weathered but now that you mention it, it does kind of look like that soft felt type thing like the DX11 coat. Strictly going off pics I favored RM's mostly for the cut and the accurate black buttons. Iminine's is about 1/2" too short and a smidge too fitted. Because of that it strikes me more as a suit jacket (blazer) than the coat like jacket that appeared on screen
 
Are the bodies cheap ones with Wall street killer? I'm crossing my fingers for better quality bodies for upcoming releases like Breaking Bad and The last of Us.
 
I agree about the fitted look and length. The buttons are correctable. It is also easy enough to rumple up the look and make it look a little less fitted. That scarf tho...my opinion of the two Angel Eyes:
Iminime:
+Better paint work
+Wayyyyy better accessories (especially watch, holster, belt, and gun)
+Jacket is better, especially if you give it some weathering.
+/- Headsculpt is open to interpretation. I like both, but sometimes I see more LCV in Rainman's.
-Scarf is awful. Way too big.
-Poor sculpted boots. Will be getting replacements.
-Shirt is designed to be closed at the top, which is inaccurate. LCV usually has an open, exposed upper chest (like Tyler Durden), especially during the final duel scene. Unfortunately, the head is necked, the shirt is clasped and it is difficult to simulate this look properly. To be fair, the RM figure had the same problem.

The three of these figures could really do with some weathering, especially to the shirts and jackets.

The bodies are solid. They're one of the more recent versions of the KO so they are very similar to an official Narrow in proportions, and the joints are way better than the oldies, so the hold poses perfectly. Really no need to swap unless you're looking to make Tuco shorter

The scarf is a bit big and hard to manage. I don't know if I'm in the minority but I'm a bigger fan of sculpted than "real" footwear. I really like Iminime's AE boots
 
yep, the material on the RM AE is quite innacurate, thats why I went with the iminime. there are better things about each, but overall i prefered the feel of the iminime, as well as the way the lapels sit flatter.

I prefer the RM real leather boots, unfortunately mine are starting to crack a bit, but still overall a better look, with much better spurs than Iminime.

I am also a +1 for RMs sculpt. It is a way stronger likeness, but Iminime's paint and skin tone is way better, which again makes it a toss up. Im gonna be selling my second version with the parts I chose not to use, and even that looks great as a total package, so its all just a win/win and Im really happy that iminime gave me the opportunity to concoct my perfect Angel Eyes!
 
Here are some pics of mine, I love them both but Tuco is my favorite!
