The Scarlett is equally awesome. I understand the idea of matching the vintage ARAH figure, I just hate that those gloves don't have the modern hand articulation.
Speaking of hands, you use the MTF hand sculpt for most of these customs. Do you have to add any hot glue or anything to make them fit in the Joe arm sockets? The MTF arrow-tab is skinnier than normal Joe hands.

I know what you mean about Scarlett's gloves. I think that she is good enough for now, but I'll definitely look to improve her arms and legs when I find the right parts. I also was not sure about the head since I'm used to Scarlett wearing a ponytail. However, I recently rewatched the old Marvel animated commercials and She was wearing her hair loose in those. I like the head now
The MTF hands work pretty well. I have had to cut down the lenght. The pins are longer than Hasbro's. For some arms, I added a dab of hot glue in the wrist socket to tighten it up.
