The moment I got the Resolute Scarlett figure, I knew I had to make her my default version of the character. However, the head was hideous and I felt it needed to be replaced. While originally I was going to use the 25th Anniversary head which would have had the iconic ponytail look, I felt the ROC Armored Scarlett head sculpt was better. Hope you like it and Happy New Year!

Much better! I had used the same head swap for the 25th version, but her grenade kept getting in the way.

The 25th version has slightly restricted articulation compared to the Resolute version, at least imo...

Looks great - but allow me to make a suggestion to get that 'iconic ponytail look' you mentioned.
Try blackrazor1s great idea from the easy kitbashes thread: I've done it several times and it's really easy. Just use hot/boiling water on the heads to get thee glue malleable and peel back the 'wig' portion. Then a bit of superglue to attach (you may need an x-acto knife to cut away a bit an have the pieces connect flush but nothing major). |
