New NAKED SNAKE pics
Here is the custom body I used for both MGS3 figures. It is a Medicom MGS4 OLD SNAKE body with muscle parts attached to it, plus some extra custom muscle parts. It is basically the same height as a Hot Toys body.
Comparison with standard Medicom body.

Re: BIG BOSS and MGS3 Naked Snake Custom (Updated NEW PICS)
Those are excellent customs!
How's the body holding up?
I want to switch over to a more durable body without losing too much articulation...

Re: BIG BOSS and MGS3 Naked Snake Custom (Updated NEW PICS)
If you're referring to the Hot Toys body, they are hands down the best, excellent articulation, joints are always tight, and the durability is far beyond the medicom bodies.
Also my rebuilt Medicom bodies are holding up fine, one base is from an MGS4 Old Snake and the other base is from the Red Spectacles Kerberos Figure.
They are very different than the original 301Massive bodies that came with the MGS3 Snakes. For some reason the original MGS3 Snake bodies come fresh out of the box with massive cracks in the shoulder joints. One of my shoulders ended up breaking off. Just very bad QC on those.

Re: BIG BOSS and MGS3 Naked Snake Custom (Updated NEW PICS)
Thanks for the info.
This is gonna be a n00b question, but can you fit Snake's head onto a HT Body? Or any other body thats durable?

Re: BIG BOSS and MGS3 Naked Snake Custom (Updated NEW PICS)
Hot Toys Truetype body is bigger than the Medicom's (which is the 301) so outfit may not fit.
You can change heads, but may require some modifications (glue, putty) to make them fit as neck joints from different 1/6 companies are usually different.
