I'm Going to work on a RA Patriot has my first ever custom. I have a BCA Patriot figure... And I would like to use the head... however I don't know how to take it off the BCA Body and how to add it to a RA Body.
The Only body I have is the Hilbilly Jim Body... I Know its the Super Heavyweight torso but meh... I think it should work out.

I would not suggest doing that while it works to an extent the hollowing part is difficult to get right
all BCA's are attached via a peg on the body you need to work on it slowly to remove it without breaking the peg off twist and pull however it should not come easily if it does then it broke
what I suggest is to use the Patriot as a model and work with any other head and some Two part Epoxy (Tamiya makes a good one that can be found at various online shops)
I suggest Doug Basham that one produces a very good result for Patriot
Good Luck

hence the reason I said NOT to take the head off
now it will take some surgery I suggest a tool in the shape of a hook (I found one in a Awl set) now the peg is in two parts you have to get between the two halves hook them and pry them out

I wouldn't bother anymore with the patriot head since it didn't work. just use an angle head and modd it and paint it. that should hopefully work.

IMO the Hillbilly Jim body would be great for a Shane Douglas custom I think someone used the body before and it looked GREAT...Either use the OSFTM Douglas head or maybe a Matt Morgan
