EASY modification to an already cool figure. I like this figure but really didn't like the feet and lower legs, so I just swapped them out for a commando SE lower legs. A little super glue to tighten the joints and it turns a good figure into a great figure. Funny how a little mod like this boosted this figure into my top three. Kind of gives me an idea of how the movie figure will look.

I like it. I think I will do the same today, once I get home and sleep before work tonight.
I always hated the legs. What the crap is around his ankles/ Is it like a bat belt for your ankles. This will fix that for me Thanks for sharing.

I hate these legs. If they were sculpted to look like the pouches of the original '85 figure, then I would have probably left them be. Being as they are, I felt the change necessary. I always liked Batman with the pouches on his belt and not the capsules. Same goes here.

Looks good. I turned my extra Snake Eyes ( the purpley one that came with the DVD pack) into a Devil's Due-esque Spirit, and I think I may steal this idea to differentiate him a bit further from the original.

Do you by any chance still have the original legs from before the swap?

As soon as I get the new 5 pack SE that happens to it. I HATE the legs on that mold, but everything else is perfect.

I never thought they'd make a Snake Eyes to dethrone the '82 commando version, but boy was I wrong. I still love the original look, but this version is just the dogs bollocks.
