I ordered the Lara Croft torso and head from Stocos store. Now I need to procure some bare arms for her. I don't collect anything other than Joe unless I happen upon something online or at the store that will suit my needs so I am not as familiar with what female figures are available. I thought about RET Lady Jaye arms repainted but I would like to get flesh colored arms if possible. Anyone have any good ideas for arms?

Looks like a pretty good start.

Too bad the Mary jane figure from Hasbro is so high in price now, that figure actually had completely bare arms.
if only someone would cast them.

Don't forget the Mara Jade coming out has bare arms. I want many many of her.


Guess I should make sure, she's not the 6" line is she, I hope I am not excited for nothing.

Nope, she's 4".

I wonder if I can work my cross-line pollination magic and get a Joe pelvis on there. That tank top torso is great, and it would be shameful to leave it stuck to a t-crotch.

I just said the same thing in a different thread. I don't think it will be too difficult.

It'll probably just be a matter of getting the right pelvis. Renegades Scarlett/Retaliation LJ are the forerunners, but it's a pretty big sacrifice to make.

Yeah I found Mary Jane and Mara Jade (both MJ, weird) since my post but since Mary Jane is so expensive and Mara Jade was a pre-order I opted to go ahead with the Elektra figure. Plus I kind of liked the Elektra head as an alternate style Jinx.

That Mara Jade head sculpt is really nice though. I like the ScarJo head for all the Cover Girl customs but it still looks like ScarJo. This might be an even better head for Cover Girl.

I have a set of dyed RoC CG legs I may be convinced to part with.

Not much time for customizing lately, but I did manage to continue on my two commissioned Jedi:

Rachi Sitra: soft goods an sculpted clothing. Sleeve test, which I will definitely need to redo. This really won't do :)




Ven Zallow: sculpted the belt and the chest belt. Placed magnets in the shoulder and shoulder pad. That way Ven can have his shoulder armour on with or without his cloak.

I have a bunch of neodymium magnets, which I got off eBay some time ago. This one's 4mm x 1mm., but I also have 3mm, 2mm and 1mm.

The client requested removable shoulder armour which could also be place on top of his Jedi cloak.
