^^ My personal view, its tough to display without clothes on. It usually gives a 3 color feel, head, neck and arms and also in my personal view the head looks a bit too large. Thats why when i display mine i will probably keep the clothes on look.

Looks like a pill bottle hand ready to pop the lid to me!

That is a perfect hand for the pills. Other good hand sets that are fitting for Travie are:

Tony Stark's (L&R grips are good for pills/gripping jacket)- https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hot-Toys-1...ion_Figures&hash=item4d1724cc76#ht_4741wt_931

T-1000's (L&R gun grip, L&R flat for clapping or holding neck wound)- https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hot-Toys-1...on_Figures&hash=item20dd8b1e5a#ht_59990wt_932

Colton's (L&R gun grip, righty pill hand)- https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hot-Toys-1...on_Figures&hash=item23344c786a#ht_2680wt_1012

Another recent fig has a L&R gripping that is the same as Coulton’s/Stark’s/Coulson’s pill/jacket grip hands but it’s not coming to me now.

Skin-tone-wise the T-1000 are the palest of that list and the best fit in that sense. The others have that HT Caucasian tan working

It's all about hiding the seam under the rigs brother. There aren't any suitable seamless (or for the most part seamless) bodies out there. The BL GOD body looks like the right choice but doesn't work in practice. I think that of all the available options it boils down to HT BL or BW Carlito arms. Any way you slice it to make those build ups as close to perfect as possible, you'd have to get the arms & body repainted for a color match with the sculpt.
 
Yeah-it's hard way to be close to perfection :( But it's possible ;)

Who's using the Blitzway Al Pacino bodies? Are these the same as the Carlito body?

Unless chili and Ray have something crazy in store...no matter what arms you have exposed will always look like ****. The shirtless look while great in theory...will never look as good unfortunately :(

I think the shirtless still looks great! Robbie has done a great job with his. It is what it is though, a 1/6 figure with a hottoys base body that hasn't evolved much. The bodies more than anything are what's keeping the hobby from getting much more interesting.
 
guys, i got the ultimate way to display the shirtless look ray and I concocted over the hoilday break.. pics upcoming..

:panic: :rock

Are they not both Pacino bodies?? :lol :wink1:

Robbie definitely tackled this the best so far. The Carlito arms lack a little texture but are a better fit IMO; the color is better (although no stock color is great) and they're not as shredded as the BL
 
Mike is going to post what we did over the holidays. pretty flawless solution for the arms that came from a body I originally shrugged off as unusuable, however it was not an easy fix and involves modding the RM chest piece.

But it looks kind of perfect.

Can't wait to see that gonna hold off making a decision till all the options are out there :)
 
First kill, I realize it was left handed in the movie, trying to track down a left shooting hand

alright dudes here is travis with enter bay bruce lee arms, stripped the top layer off and the skin tones matched pretty darn close. had to do some serious mods to the arm connections to get them to work with the chest piece, but the result is beautiful
