1/6 SooSoo Toys - 1/6 SST024: Blind Vigilante (Netflix Daredevil homemade suit)

[ScoobyDoo]

Just got mine in, looks amazing. Only 2 problems is the body (single bend arms need to go away, plus he looks a little bigger than the show, but I haven’t seen it in awhile so I may be remembering wrong) and no spare wrist pegs (I have plenty of spares, but more wouldn’t hurt).

Anyone got an idea for a body swap? Any specific body to use?

I want to photograph mine one more time and then I'll be trading him for Mezco One:12 stuff. (This was always the plan; I don't keep much of anything for long.)

Yeah the body is too bulky for DD, I suppose any slimmer/regular body can work. I used a JXToys body for my S1 kitbash, but it has single-jointed elbows.

Looks better! The stock body looks like The Rock lol.

I am brand new to the world of 3rd party figures. Can I get recommendations on the best place to pick this up?

Not place I’ve seen this available besides eBay is Ekia Hobbies.

And if you don't want to preorder, eBay is essentially the only option, and on eBay nine out of ten auctions are from China.

I took the plunge and did a body swap, and I think it looks much better! Will try to find a day to snap some pics haha

I did a body swap with a spare HT body I had, I think it turned out OK.

Next to the red DD figure!!!

Hey guys!

COMPLETELY new to the whole body-swap thing, so I'm hoping someone can offer some guidance...

1. would either of these be suitable as a more Charlie Cox-accurate body swap?

- 1/6 Male Action Figure Body MX02 2.0A Matt Improved Ver. for Caucasian

- 1/6 Scale Standard Male Body (Arm Muscles)

- New Type Standard Male 1/6 Scale Body

>>> Or is there something else? I want to keep costs right around these prices and definitely don't need seamless unless it's literally the only accurate-option

>>> are they TOO thin? I don't want to err too much to the opposite of the too-bulky stock body...

2. when swapping, do the clothes still "fit", or is there further work required so they don't look sloppy/"wrong"-sized?

Thank you!!

I used a COO Model bd009. The shirt needed to be taken in quite a bit. I’ll upload a picture when I get home later. Almost anything will be skinnier than the body they used.

Thank you so much, @Magnusstewardson - as I mentioned, this is all new territory for me, so I can't overstate how much it's appreciated! Charlie's got a bit of bulk to him, so to be honest the more I look at some of those awesomely-articulated examples I'm afraid they may swing too far the other way & make him look emaciated!

I also don't want to be stuck with a body I have no use for if that is the case... Hence my extreme appreciation for your input!
