Great job
The Bruce Lee body might seem small but I remember someone did it way back when the figure was released and it looked pretty good. Probably just need some ankle extensions to make him taller or completely swap the legs from another body which would be easy enough I think. Then modify the arms to accept the HT ones. It’s possible as I actually used the Hot Toys Joe Colton body when I did the body swap for my figure. But again, I just didn’t feel it was worth it in the end.
Also, wonderful job on the pants! I use Angelus paints all the time but never thought of using the aliquoted+Angelus neutral sealer. I will have to give that a try on my Hot Toys Winter Soldier figure. It’ll save me from having to send it off to get a real leather one made. I might need to Pm you for some tips when I try it out if you don’t mind.
very nice work
Thanks

So it would seem that I have goofed.
Purchased SSC Eric Draven, with the intention of later replacing the head with the one from HT.
Today, the HT sculpt arrived, and as you can see, my lack of attention to the neck situation has left me in a pickle.
What are my best options for getting the HT head on the SSC body? Halp!

Time to get a new body. You need a neckless body.
Very nice
, Yeah the clothes for this fig tends to disintegrate with age. Thankfully mine is still in good condition. I have applied about a gallon of 303 on it though. 
Either get a neckless body or go through the trouble or removing the neck on the HT head

Anyone got any advice. Someone is selling the shirt to this on eBay. They’ve cut it away from the body. Would the shirt if I purchased it be able to tuck under the existing black wrist wraps on my figure to make it appear seamless as it originally would appear?

The wrist wraps for the SS figure are part of the shirt. Are you asking about using the SS shirt for the HT figure? How were the wrist wraps done for the HT figure?

It’s the hot toys figure, hot toys shirt. Apparently the seller got it off with scissors. I’ve ripped mine and would like it replaced so was hoping with this I could replace but just want to be able to make it seamless so should it just tuck into the wrist wraps?

Picked one up cheap that was NIB but clothing peeling bad. I went ahead and pealed it all off and painted it with acrylic leather paint, after seeing it done on a video. For the price of the fig, I'm pleased with the results.

I think the tattered coat fits the character.
I found one at a ridiculously low price with the clothing destroyed. Used liquitex paint and sealed it with neutral Angelus leather paint. Acrylic paint alone with crack over time.
I could see a new figure to coincide with the 30th anniversary this year.

Totally. Plus, the universal disgust at the reboot has only served to boost interest and revive appreciation of the original.

I agree hoping HT does a artisan version for this and uses real leather for the clothes. And also include weapons like SS did for theirs.
