I cut a wedge right under the ball on the back of the neck. Now the edge of the scoket on the head can tuck under that to allow him to look up more.

I didn't like the blue and I managed to trade for a spare Zanzibar webgear. This time, I didn't relocate the holster. I cut a hole at the bottom so the pistol fits in lower.
I gave Mercer a backpack to make it look more like the vintage one. Red Dog has 25th Torch legs. I still want to replace the lowers so if someone has a spare set, please let me know. Group shot:

CAn you show me the wedge? Is this the fix for Recondo as well?

I'll see when I can get the camera again. I'm guessing it would be the same fix, but the thing is my Recondo was customized into Salvo so I never needed to fix him as I used a Star Wars head.
I did the same wedge for Burn Out though.

Nighthawk, seeing you successfully make some of the simple and much needed fixes to your Taurus finally prompted me to try them on mine. I rarely modify or "customize" my figures--but I'm going to start doing so more often now. Taurus/Bull is now my favorite figure out of the Marauders set. I was a bit blindsided by just how much I dig this figure.
I took a slightly different approach with the head/neck issue, though, deciding to carve out, little by little, some of the back portion of the "rim" where the neck ball enters the head hole, trying to get a nice angled slope from the rim to the back edge of the head. I want to get it to the point where he can actually look upward slightly. |

Here's another Marauder/Dreadnok set update.
At least his chest is a bit more covered now.
