Which body suits Tom Welling head best?

[Kal El Klarc]

Is that the all rubber body? How is the articulation?

 

[carthut]

it's rubber arms but the hole body is plastic articulation is same like those HT rubber bodies

 

[Kal El Klarc]

I don't have any so I do not really know what they are like, or what this one looks like but from pics what I can see looks great

Damnit now I am torn between my original idea of making him supes/clark kent(pending glasses) my second idea of making him two different characters or my more recent idea of casting him as a different yet also(presumably) well known super hero

i used a playhouse body on mine

very nice custom. mine is slowly coming along but the main pieces for him (jacket and pants) are still in backorder so for right now mine just has the t-shirt and boots

 

[fanger54]

is it just my welling head or are they all very dark in skin tones... mine is almost Hindu colored in tone. its a big wtf for me since i dont own anything from hottoys , my whole collection consist of custom heads and bodies and none are that dark in skin tone

Those arms look great! Really big! Where did you get it?

it looks kind of dark yea, but it's actually just about the same color as my HT Reeve Superman

headplay wont put out anymore of the heads, but they have sold some to online stores and thus leaving headplay themself out of stock

 

[ShadowX81]

Got any links?

Yes, lol. I have one of those older BBI muscle bodies that came with a Arnold looking head I'm going to try him on. Already have some jeans (I believe their DID Jeans that were too big for HT bodies but fit perfect on the BBI) and boots I had in my parts box so this bash is only costing me $36.00 with the shipping. Don't know if I'll need a red jacket yet, but we'll see.

 

[Gipetto0812]

nice! I will say that the blue shirt is a bit darker in hand. I was thinking it was going to be a blue like he had in the show but it vame looking a bit darker than expeced

here's a pic of what it looks like:

I'd say it's a bit darker than that though in hand

More Royal Blue then Navy, Navy is almost black. If it's too dark I soak it in Ritz color remover, might lighten it up. I've use it before with good results. Depend on the material.
