Need some help to fit Avengers Assemble Black Widow head in a combo body I made.
Resuming I'm trying to make an Arctic Cover Girl. Everything is ready minus fitting the head because the jacket gets in the way. Torso is a ROC Scarlett on suit and the vest is the POC Arctic Destro one. As you can imagine the hair gets in the way. I tried boiling the head, hair dryer but even folding the hair which was the initial idea seems to solve the issue. I also didn't want to trim down the original hair (yes this is a one piece head) because its my only BW head and if I screw up... Trmming down the jacket is a solution but i do not see much to trim since I like the mold as it is. Thanks

If you're unwilling to trim from either head or jacket/collar I don't see much of a way to get that to work, since those are two pretty sizeable things that cannot share the same physical space. That's a pretty big collar, maybe you could lop it off and let the hair take the space? [Maybe glue the collar back on lower on the back, below the hair.]

The jacket in question is probably to big. If possible try getting ahold of a Star Wars Talon Karrde figure. He comes wearing a jacket that works great for an arctic or regular Cover Girl and he is relatively easy to come by.

Thanks.
I will have that vest in mind. Its not really what I wanted but may have to be the solution. I'm also going to try and work on this vest. I think the hood part is removable I saw something which looked like a glued section while painting it. Maybe if I remove it I can work something out. Meanwhile I also saw the Winter Combat Cap. America vest. Dam I sold that figure a while back because I never had use for any of its parts. Maybe the vest is too wide for this figure but only with one in hands. If anyone has this vest or the Talon Karrde one PM me. Really didn't want to spend $10 or more for just a vest. Thanks

Tried that tonight, and yes, the fur-lined hood is glued onto a raised piece on the main jacket body. Removing it still leaves that raised piece, but it is far less bulky than when it has the fur-lined hood on top of it.
