Add yourself some rib tape, and I think you got yourself a fine looking DDP.

DDP needs a longer neck peg. I was going to put the new head on the elite too, but he has no neck. I also cant get past not having boot tucked jeans, but if youre happy then thats all that matters.

I am trying to figure out how I can put this head on my DM Hitman, because then I think it will be the perfect Hitman. Oh and the skin tone match up much better with the naked eye. I don't know why it looks so out of scale or different colored in the photo. Seriously though I can't wait to find the HOF Sting so I can pop the new basic head and some larger arms (E30 Hawk or BaF Hitman) on it. I keep checking the target tracker knowing nothing has changed today, but still hoping. lol

Can anyone tell me how to fix legs that don't move out sideways? I've heard stories about this type of stuff mostly involving Elite 6 CM Punk figures. My old e6 had that problem, now my SES and E11 do. Anyway to fix it?

My old e6 had that problem, now my SES and E11 do. Anyway to fix it? Run the hips under hot water for a couple minutes and they will loosen up. Once you have heated them enough that the legs can move outwards and forwards leave the figure in either a splits or seated position for 24 hours and they will be fine.

I also cant get past not having boot tucked jeans, but if youre happy then thats all that matters. just stuff some cotton up there in the head, sits just fine after that. I also ended up using a different neck peg that was slightly longer as well on the finished product. As far as the tucked in jeans go, never been a fan and no idea how I could make them without painting, but I'm hoping Mattel will release a short haired DDP with proper attire still.

Work in progress. Of course Joe came with bad paint flaws and a loose wrist so decided to make his green shorts attire, fix the wrist, and paint over those god awful eyebrows

I wouldn't switch the shoulders. This way he would still be in scaled with people who are larger than him. I like to use larger shoulders on certain guys that may safe a torso with someone smaller this way. They have the illusion of still being larger.

Good lord that Jakks '98 Taker scan is bloody good. Wish Mattels was a bit better.
