Hey 16k: thanks for posting the comparisons. As a newbie collector heading towards customizing, this is very helpful.

16K, thanks for the pictures. Is the ss buck the big buck or small?

 

[Mooncat]

These out now I had a pre-order in with Triad but heard nothing ?

Looking at the Omega next to Superman (which I dont have) Im guessing that Supes is in scale height wise with a standard truetype 38 ?

In that pic the Omega looks to be a good few mm taller ??

Is that an accurate assumption ?

If that the case then the Female Omega for use on a BSG Six custom would be improved, which is what I originally bought her (and him for)

Ohh FFS brain fart Im thinking of the EVO please excuse me everyone

This looks great for a taller character (assuming 6ft = HT TT body) - where can I buy one? I live in the UK, any suggestions? Thanks

Thanks 16K, this really helps out on knowing what to use and whats out on the market for projects. I too want to know what Buck body was used> Big or nromal?

HT heads fit on Omega bodies, right?

 

[Grange Wallis]

Any chance of a Nude photo to see the bodies muscularity?

Despite trying to go for an open chest look they still have the line round the neck, personally If I was going try to go this route, id have a gone for a removeable cover chest (similar to the CY girl)

or say this is the neck post no changing it and done a solid one, not a line on what looks like an over extruded neck

Worrying thing is, this doesnt look like it has a removable neck post

These out now I had a pre-order in with Triad but heard nothing ?

There are whole heap of pre-orders arriving 30th April - if your order included any of those then Triad will hold your order back till they arrive in the absence of a request from yourself.

Cheers!

And for those wondering about the posing possibilities...

the EVO and EVA bodies they have coming out look much better

i have several of these bodies too and it's my favorite second only to the hot toys truetype. it's a very solid body all around imho

the neck post is removeable. it's made of a soft pvc unlike the hot toys style where you plug it over the ball. you can pry it off and there's a dragon type post underneath the neckjoint so you can use the older sideshow or dragon heads with the neck on there. the hole on the hot toys newer heads and the sideshow prometheus heads are a little bigger, but it's easy to attach it. i just use some tape, wrap the knob and pop the heads on

i actually like this double jointed neck much more than the single sculpted look. it looks natural and you have that double tilt so the adam's apple is not always straight ahead all the time, even when your head is turned. i always thought that was pretty weird. the neck transition looks better than the hot toys or prometheus necks for sure

i love their handsculpts. too bad they dont release these separate otherwise i'd buy a ton of them

The articulation on these looks awesome, but the body size is huge. The height is somewhere between a TT and the DC Direct body. These would be great for tall figures and superheroes.

 

[**16k**]

Actually, they're not much taller than SS! IMHO, what makes them so tall is that long neck! But their poseability is great!

 

[Morbach]

yeah this is very helpful for those trying to get into customizing and need direction on what bodies to get

Is there any way to shorten the neck for customized heads?

Hi Russ!
The Triad Omegas so tall I was looking to use the Omega body for the Doctor Who REVENGE OF THE CYBERMEN customs (whenever those finish up), so they will be on a taller body than the SS body I'll be using for my 4th Doctor and tower over him a bit (and I used the SS body since the 4th Doc is tall and I wanted him taller than regular characters whom I'd put on Dragon bodies).
I still have yet to get one though.

Vikki suggested them to me for them and sent me these size comparison pics to see for myself.
