A quick two. Using the SS Boba Fett's left hand and lighted stand. Boy, photobucket really downgrades the image quality. There's no noise in the originals.

The SS hands fit well eh?

Kinda. The fist doesn't look out of scale (other than the difference in color between the ESB gloves and ROTJ gloves). The rest of the hands are HUGE. Out of scale, even on the SS (hence the rifle thing I mentioned in my mini-review).

You have to remove the SS wrist posts and swap them with the Medicom posts. Then they fit perfectly.
 
Awesome!!! thanks man!!.....it that jangos head straight to bobas body, or were there mods that had to be done?.....ide like to believe that you can just take jangos head and put it on boba without no mods, sadly thats more than likely what i'll have to do...i hope not though. lol
Nah, you can just switch the heads. I would suggest getting a new, medicom body (regular size) as it's more stable.
 
I absolutely have no idea how to post pictures on threads. lol
Getting the SSC Fett so i can give his blaster pistol holster, cape, shin tools, and EE-3 blaster rifle. hopefully they are compatible.

The SSC blaster pistol holster is nice, but is missing the 'lip' toward the front. You'll be fine with it , but the Marmit holster is the correct shape.
The SSC EE-3 has nice, sharp details...but is odd. There's lots of very inaccurate details...but will still look nice. I'm going to customize it.
The Marmit cape, is also the best, for color. You can see what I'm doing with mine here; https://sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69954&page=4
 
Here's mine, I have had him since he was released and I think he's awesome. I much prefer the ROTJ colour scheme. I bought the SS ESB fabric sash from TA and placed it over the Medi moulded one as I couldn't bring myself to cut the Medi one off.

I think he looks cool but any suggestions / tips as to what to use for two the right side arm hoses would be greatly appreciated.
 
I recently purchased a ESB medi for 70$. Unboxed it yesterday, and man! the figures body was completely in shambles. fortunately, i have prior experience in repairing medicom bodies to an extant, so that wasn't really a problem. hope i can get a new body soon.
 
Just buy one of the new bodies and you won't have any problems SS has em.

70$ is a good deal for one with a crushed body.
 
I was never a huge fan of the medicom fett but after seeing pics of what people do with the SSC parts to improve slight flaws on the medicom version I may have to look into picking one up.

The shoulder on my ESB Medi Fett just crumbled a few weeks ago & I'm now in the process of replacing it with a Slim TT. However, these guys have the RAH Massive 2 bodies for $29:

It's listed under "Male Nude Figures - Miscellaneous Manufacturers." While it requires drilling the holes in the forearms to accommodate the old, larger wrist pegs, all the pictures I've seen of folks who've used it on their Medi Fetts end up with better scaled & better looking figures than before.
