Okay, took a quick pic of the figure for you. So there is a paper clip around the jacket collar to keep it closer to the neck. The fat suit was not actually removed, but reversed, so the bulky part is now in the back hidden by the coat. I think it makes the front look way better around the waist and belt. Last I swapped the short ankle pegs to long pegs,which helps with the pant length of the jeans and arm length of this body. I think the height is pretty good and he doesn’t look too tall next to other figures.

Looks better proportioned with those minor changes, good job.

Exactly. Some quick changes help improve the look with little effort. Now to look through my parts bin and find a pair of decent gripping hands. Unfortunately, my Jack arrived with duplicate left hands and a missing right hand for holding the axe.

Small details makes big changes thats pretty bad of them. But it can be fixed easily with each figure we get multiple hands so that comes in.... handy lol. Proberly going to pose him with the other sculpt though. Love that crazy expression

Honestly love how this one has turned out. Its so close to the balloonman sculpt that i've always wanted. Pretty low of them to recast a custom piece, but i am happy to own it. Especialy for this price. As for the outfit it looks quality. Leaps and bounds better then their first release. Highly recommend for any fan

Looks awesome Grimmreapah! I wish one of these companies would create a Danny and trike, plus the Overlook hotel carpet to go with the Jack

Is the Present Toys Jack 2.0 still available anywhere?? I sold the original version to upgrade, but I can't find it anywhere. Is ebay the only place?

I think there are pre-orders for a second batch. Mainly on aliexpress. I think there are also a few sellers there that have them in stock but at a little higher price right now. Anyway definitely worth the upgrade

I got my 2.0 from a European retailer for a fair price. Had the 1.0 and an original Balloonman scult normal expression painted like the one 2.0 comes with.

Now if I have time I will open it, w will make a mix of 1.0, 2.0 , the old craftone and other custom parts (like the belt) to make an almost perfect one.

This pics are old. I made a fews modifications and Got a whisky bottle and typewriter

It was released a few months ago. Now it seems like its arriving a bit late in Europe.

I used a new fatsuit, the one it comes with made him have a huge stomach and was a bit strange. I made a new version using parts from other previous figures, craftone , present toys 1.0, custom belt and of course balloonman original sculpt painted by an artist.
