Custom Leia body question

[Trooper_Nerd]

Hi folks, I'm looking to make a 1/6 custom Leia, but I'm struggling to find a petite body for her. All of the ones I've tried are far too leggy. Can anyone recommend a body type please. Doesn't need to be seamless as it will be clothed.

Many thanks!

Phicen is releasing small breast body, but no idea about how tall it will be.

Thanks very much. I'll keep my eyes open for this

Check out Pop Toys/Xing makes a semi-seamless and jointed body that comes with a small bust size. Most of these bodies are shorter in stature.

The 1/6 Nobushi body worked great for my custom Boushh Leia!

If cost isn’t an issue, and you’re very particular, you could get a Hot Toys female body.

There’s a Black Widow with black stains on it for a not exorbitant price on eBay.

You could probably get one cheaper if you parted out a Black Widow figure, but that’s a not insubstantial investment to make.

I wish Hot Toys still made just TrueType bodies like they used to.

I'd settle for a normal HT body that had something to cover the wrist gap on ROTJ Leia on her right hand lol. First "short sleeved" figure I've owned without any glove/wrist items.

Let us know when the FOD Leia arrives. I'd like to see if that works out.

Bumping this thread. Just about to pull the trigger on a Phicen S44 small-breasted body for Sideshow Boushh, but thought I'd better ask first if people think this is a suitable body? The height checks out with Bespin and Hoth Leia. Price wise it's the most suitable option out there for me.

I used the TBLeague S17B body for the slave Leia, had to shorten the body by 10 mm at the ankle and it’s not that hard to do

That looks good but is seamless body really required for a Boushh Leia?

I haven't checked Ebay for prices on regular female articulated bodies from Hot Toys but perhaps the price on the Phicen S44 is comparable or even better.

Your Slave Leia looks fantastic, Bob!

Thanks mate…

Yep, it basically comes down to price and… erm… cleavage size. Nothing really comparable for price on eBay UK atm and Toys Wonderland has a 15% sale on. Thank you for the reply btw!

Beautiful that. That looks very similar to the upcoming Mr. Toys one. I’ll take a look at the S17B (definitely the one I’ll consider for Slave Leia after seeing yours), but may just try out the S44 to see how well it works.

Good point regarding the boobs... Phicen's are usually outrageously huge.

Yeah I wish HT would still produce their TT line, as I recall it was well received, and perhaps introduce newer type bodies.

Yup, when I'd first gotten one, I was, um, surprised at how much larger they are in person and thought "Oh well I guess this isn't going to work out for this kitbash."

Thanks for the comparison! One nit about some of the P/TBL bodies is I think the wrists are a bit thick and wish they tapered more naturally, but it's not too overly distracting.

So, my Phicen S44A body arrived today. I replaced the stock Sideshow body on Boushh. Here's a couple of comparison pics with her next to Bespin Leia. The height seems just about right to me, I certainly can't tell the difference when they're side by side. The breast size is also spot-on. There's a suntan version of the S44, so I'm thinking she'd be a very good fit for the upcoming Mr. Toys Slave Leia.

Looks great and to scale but its almost a waste to hide the phicen body under all of that outfit.
