You could try heeled boots for pegs, like these.

Although on second thought the calves on a male figure might be too thick.

Another option is hollow boots (without peg). Like the ones in this set:
https://www.machinegun-figures.com/classic-women-s-leather-suit-set-red-p-22818

But they may have the same problem.

What type of shoes are you looking for? Are they something that you can tell have a “foot” in them, like “high heels” where part of the foot is visible? Or shoes that completely conceal the foot? If the latter, you could get a pair of replacement feet that work with your male figure and “shave” parts of the foot down along the length and width until they “fit”. If the former, you may have a really hard time finding shoes that work.

I think Stryker's idea probably has the most potential, since finding 1/6 scale 'women's' shoes that fit a male figure's feet might not be possible. So the answer would be to either a) modify the male feet to fit into the female shoes, or b) modify female feet to fit onto the male body. The challenge with that would be to then make sure the figure could still be balanced properly while standing, though of course figure stands help with that, too.

Otherwise, I guess you could look around and see if there are some kind of doll's shoes that might be made larger than regular 1/6 scale action figure shoes.

Yeah, I looked at 1/4 shoes but they were way too long. I might have to end up shaving the feet down as y'all said, I might look into making my own. I am thinking about a 3D pen possibly but I have to get more info on that first. I am working with an array of different dolls and figures so I will keep looking.

Thanks again, you guys are great! I love this forum, it has so many cool ideas and info and of course, the members are so kind and accommodating!

Ok, this is a dumb newbie question that I should really know by now, but does anyone know if the 'generic' types of neck adapters/sockets (for male figures with attached necks) can fit onto Hot Toys necks and neck pegs?

This is the type I mean:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/173056689128?hash=item284afb83e8:g:3bgAAOSw6ShZSNw2

I ask because I was going through and putting together each of my Anakin figures today, and realised to my dismay that I'm missing the neck peg for one of my HT Ani's (I have two of the RotS Ani's, one is the original figure, the other is a reconstituted one I kitbashed). I had removed the neck adapter thingie from the inside of the neck when I was fixing the hair on the rooted-hair headsculpt, and I must have misplaced it. Very frustrating, as it's the specific HT one, which is now almost impossible to replace since it's not available parted-out. Just trying to figure out if a generic one will work or if it really has to be an HT one (if so, I'm screwed).

Good question. It would be difficult to track down with any precision, because I doubt that if there were significant variation between them, sellers would provide (or be able to provide) an indication of the difference. It may well be, however, that these are basically equivalent. If it looks about right and and price is ok, give it a try.

Thanks, I think it is indeed worth taking the chance in order to havea functional headsculpt!

S, when I get home (give me a few hours), I’ll check my Darth Stryker figure which is on an HT Anakin body, and I’ll be able to give you an answer.

Sky, that is the adapter (the one in your eBay link) that works with the Anakin body.

Thank you SO much for checking for me, that is incredibly helpful!

Does anyone know what Headsculpt/Body this is?

Not sure but it looks like a YMtoys one too me.

Just did a fast goggle pictureing. Maybe this one? The promos always look significantly different in paint than the actual products with YMtoys heads.

Thank you so much! looks like it is ^^
Now i just gotta figure out what body fits with it.

Based on the appearance of the waistline and arms the body in the first picture is a Tbleague S17B.
Hope that helps.

Thank you! i actually have 16A which is just the pale skin version, hope the skin tone is compatible enough haha.

Does anyone know if the Toy Biz 12" LOTR Special Edition Figures come apart? I have a Legolas and Aragorn and I want to use pieces of the outfits for other projects but although I used a hair dryer on the hands, it didn't come out and I am worried about breaking it.

Thanks

https://www.machinegun-figures.com/ has the LOTR figures parted out, the latest is the Elven Archer, so maybe you will find the other figures parted out there as well

Thanks so much.

Hey folks! Are there any companies or lines outside our usual selection (lookin at you barbie and co) that have clothing that fits the S38? I cant find the clothing thread (it is late, so maybe I'm tired and not seeing it) and as we know, those arent the easiest TBL bodies to clothe. I am not sure what I am looking for specifically other than some leads on what can work for it.

The clothing thread is here:
https://onesixthfigures.forumotion.com/t1403-clothing-tbleague-phicen-seamless-bodies-updated-part-xxviii-may-2022

Yes, the S38-S39 bodies would probably be the biggest challenge to clothe, given their larger curves and breasts. I don't think they feature in that particular topic, but here is one example, with a fairly simple dress from eBay.

You are very welcome. It helps that this dress is in a stretchier material, which would be helpful with other clothes too.

Bit of an odd question, but I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas of where I could source a 3D 'flame' that a figure could hold in their hands, something like this:





It doesn't need to actually glow or have an LED light in it, I'm mainly just looking for some plastic flames in a similar shape.  I've encountered 'fire' effects for use on diorama bases, but they all seem to be the wrong size or shape to hold in the hands like that.

I don’t know if this example specifically will work for you or not, but try searching eBay for “flame effects” or “fire effects” under the Toys and Hobbies/Action Figures category, and hopefully you might find something already available. If not, maybe search Google for “action figure 3D printing”? I know there are various individuals that do printing for 1:12 scale figures. Maybe they have something that would work for 1:6.

Mezco are releasing a Fantastic Four set. The Human Torch comes with the perfect accessories, but at a glance I couldn't find that on its own. Maybe it'll be parted out?

Thanks so much, everyone. Between all of these great suggestions, I'm sure I will find something useful!  I knew there had to be something usable from some of the Marvel figures, but since I'm not super familiar with that side of things, it was hard to know what terms to use in a search. This gives me a lot to go on. Really appreciate it.
