okay, so i am a total noob at customizing newer 25th ann joes.
i've done my fair share of kitbashing over the years, but now that the new RAH line is one hold, there are still a lot of figures i want to have in my collection, that won't see the light of day until after the summer. so, anyway, i've heard, and it looks to be possible...but how easy is it to pop a star wars figure's head onto a joe body?

They aren't just straight swaps. Star Wars neck balls (insert bad joke here) are larger than the ones sculpted for Joes so you'll need to use some sculpey or hot glue to fill in the hole on the Star War head or dremmel out the hole on the Joe head to fit the Star War body.
Hasbro loves to make customizing and kitbashing difficult for us fans. Evident in the fact that not even the neck balls/holes are the same in the same toy line.
