They do it all the time. Toy Biz used the Evolution of Sting surfer Sting torso for their WCW line (Sting/Bagwell), ML (Cyclops) and then their TNA line (Jarrett/Styles) to name just a few figures from various lines over the years. Jarrett and Styles had totally different torsos in the TNA line though... Styles and I think Jarrett's first Toy Biz figures were the Sting torso with the lever in the back.

The TNA Jarrett had an action where you squeezed the legs together and he would swing his guitar. The crotch and torso were all one piece... Not that it really matters to your point that they re-used the same parts.

Yeah you're correct I though one of the two 2-Pack Jarrett figures had a different torso. But they both have the same one as the singles release with the squeezing legs.

Jared Leto sucks, good catch though Why do you think he sucks? I didn't enjoy his portrayal of the Joker character, he takes himself way too seriously as a "method actor", he has carried just about 0 successful films by himself, he's his own biggest fan, he's 45 and acts like a 20 year old hippie.

Keep this thread going guys, I enjoy seeing how companies have reused parts in different lines.

We can get a Bunny and a Panda but heaven for bid we get the Gobbledy Gooker. Not even as an SDCC exclusive...I call unfair!

It was a garbage movie, but that figure looks really cool.

I need a Cyclops and Buff Bagwell figure in the same scale right TF now. That is awesome. I think I grew up in the wrong toy era lol.
