Before i purchase the elite, i was wondering something. Does the elite jacket fit well onto the basic (2pack2) version of finlay?
Normally the gear would be interchngable from the elite to basic style for characters but finlays first figure used a more slimmer body (the swagger one) and im not sure if it will fit well or not. Does anyone have both and would be able to at least tell and maybe even show what it looks like?
Also, how easy is it to swap the heads of the two, do they look better swapped?
Thanks.

I'm sure it does, the santino elite is as thin as the basic

I'm sure it does, the santino elite is as thin as the basic But the Elite Flinlay uses the larger Sgt Slaughter torso. So the jacket might look large on the Basic styled figure. As for head swapping it'll be fairly easy to do. |

I have the Elite but I don't own the Basic figure otherwise I'd do it for ya.
However I can tell you that his Elite coat is made of the same hard plastic material as Elite 1 Undertaker & Edge coats are.

The skin tone is pretty off from the Elite to Basic. Elite is a bit more tan. To me, the head switch didn't look right.
As for the jacket, I didn't even bother to take it off of the Elite as I listed the figure on classifieds right away.

I saw a picture of Basic Finlay with the Elite Jacket on here a couple days ago, it looked real good.

However I can tell you that his Elite coat is made of the same hard plastic material as Elite 1 Undertaker & Edge coats are. Thanks anyway mate. Yeah im aware its that hard plastic, and thats the main reason im asking because i know that plastic tends to hold its shape pretty well and if its still contoured to the bulgier body of elite 4, it probably wont fit 'tight' enough around the basic. The skin tone is pretty off from the Elite to Basic. Elite is a bit more tan. To me, the head switch didn't look right. As for the jacket, I didn't even bother to take it off of the Elite as I listed the figure on classifieds right away. Really? Have you got a pic of the head switch? I saw a pic of an elite and basic side by side the other day and saw the elite was a little tanned but the head of the basic seemed to have a tone closer to the elite than the basic body. Its the tone difference that noticeable because i much prefer the basic scan than the elite. My basic finlay is wearing the jacket as we speak, looks awesome Cool! How does it fit? Does it fit tightly enough or is it loose? If you got pics that would be great. I saw a picture of Basic Finlay with the Elite Jacket on here a couple days ago, it looked real good. Thanks, might have to check back, must have missed it. |

I see nothing wrong with the Elite Finlay to begin with, other than a loose left ankle.  |

It fits fine, a tad loose, but overall pretty good

Here is a picture of it:  It is a little loose on the basic figure, but it still looks okay. Hope this helped! |

here is that elite finlay with basic head I saw the elite Finlay the other day and passed. Maybe I should have got it, cause that head swap looks great. |

Wow that headswap looks brilliant! The elite scan just doesnt quite look right to me and the elite is so much more accurate, im definitely going to get it and try for a swap.
Im thinkin of putting the jacket on the basic with the elite head and now that i know it fits pretty well, its a possibility unless i leave it on the elite. Thanks for all the answers and pics guys, really appreciate it.
RKOwned, you definitely helps, thanks a bundle!
Cooperstar, i agree, best finlay to date with the basic head and elite body! Thanks again!
