Anyone swap a Hasbro head onto a different body?

[JustinLuck]

I have a few Hasbro 12" that I would like to transplant their heads onto new bodies if it is possible. But I haven't really found any that might work okay with the strange head neck attachment (reminds me of Medicom's). I am guessing it takes serious modification to look right.

good question to ask, as I've been wanting to make my Hasbro Count Dooku into a better looking fig

you can put Hasbro heads onto the Dragon bodies you just need to open up the neck opening a bit. I have transplanted the Dooku head to a Dragon body and it looks great.

Yep Hewer is very correct the Hasbro heads will fit perfectly on the Dragon neck post once you remove some of the rubber from the bottom of the neck.

Do they not fit on other bodies? Usually if it fits on a Dragon it will fit just about anything else.

I think the problem is that there are so many different bodies. What I tend to do it cut the neck off totally. Then add a TT neck post. That way you get great head movement.

I put Hasbro's Dooku head on a Sideshow tall body, but had to add a little extension to get it to be tall enough. One of Hasbro's better efforts though.

Hasbro did well really I think. The dooku is grand.

I did Dooku and Biggs on a Dragon body, they look great.

great work unsung as always!

I'm tempted to do this with Dooku, but half of me wants to wait to see if Sideshow will do one and I can just fix their mistakes

 

[unsung hero]

They have said that he is coming, and that the headsculpt has already been done, so now it is just a matter of waiting!

Same here. Either way, it will require some modification to the neck.

Gipetto0812 - give it a crack mate you won't be dissapointed I did mine back in 05 and and was very very happy.

Great custom Hemble!!! Are those all the Hasbro clothes or did you swap them out with other clothes?
I think I'll just for Sideshows though since unsung just gave me the heads up on it. I feel like if I made a Dooku, then Sideshow's is released, I'd want to sell my custom which probably wouldn't sell for much due to SS releasing there's same reason why I haven't picked up Hasbro's Grievous yet. Waiting for SS to make him

Gipetto0812 - hey mate the outfit is all hasbro I just gave it a boil and wash to soften it up.

[Gipetto0812]

wow man definitely one of Hasbro's better attempts. I may pic it up if I can get him for a good price on eBay or Amazon.com

The Hasbro Dooku head on another body looks great. Hemble painted up a head for me and I swapped out the body and it looks just awesome next to the Sideshow figures. Thanks again Ron it still looks fantastic.
Some of the earlier Hasbro Star Wars Aliens also look great with a body swap to make them less doll like.
