I just bought a Deluxe Aggression RVD to go along with my TNA deluxe impact figures, i got it in the mail today and after seeing it in person I realize that the head bothers me (its the 1 with the ponytail up in the air)
I have several RA RVD's and would like to know a few things, 1. will the RA head fit nicely on the DA body? and 2. i have never done a custom before or a fix-up so how would I transfer 1 head to another? help is much appreciated, sorry if this is in the wrong place, i figured it had to do with Jakks so i'd ask here

idk if the RA would fit good on the DA, but to exchange them all you do it pop the head off each of them and put whichever 1 you want onto the body, its easy to do

i always let the head/neck area sit in hot water before removing the head. Every time I didnt soak it, the neck broke. Hope I helped,

Yup the RA head will fit on the DA body, seen plenty of fix ups like that before on here and like mentioned above, either dip the head in hot water for about 20 seconds or so or heat it with a hairdryer and it should pop right off.

The ponytail can be removed but there's no peg or joint on it. You'd have to slice it off. Then glue it back on with it pointing downwards. That's what other collectors did.

The RA head imo would look too small on DA body but you could cut off the DA Ponytail and glue it back on pointing down, which is what i did/

I put the smirking scan RVD head on my DA6 RVD and it improved it 100%.

Play it safe with popping them heads, no use in busting a neck pin. Soak the figure in hot water, there will be no damage to the head or torso, it just gets real rubbery (goes back to normal once dry, miracles of plastic resilience, go figure...). If you feel it still is not rubbery enough, let it sit in the water 10-15 seconds more, and keep trying until it is bendy enough to just pop out very easily. Same process for popping them back on, let the head sit in hot water for a while so it doesn't give too much resistance. After a while, it gets fun.

I think you can see it well enough to tell, the first RA RVD scan looks fantastic on the DA RVD figs. **Edit** Here's another:
