Has anyone tried this, i have the Retaliation Firefly on the way and have some spare DG Shipwreck legs. I was wondering if the colors match or not. Pics if you have done it would be great.

Hmmm. I'd like to see this. I don't have the DG shipwreck, but if it worked I'd be willing to get one.

I am planning to change the lower legs of Ret Firefly with DG v1 grey Shipwreck lower legs, keeping the knees and feet of FF. Hoping this looks ok to give FF double knees joints, with as little paint as possible.

the knee part is connected to the lower part of FF legs. you would need to use the double knee joint and lower leg of SW and the upper leg of FF if you wanted the double knee joint or just use the whole SW legs |

You'd have to paint the legs and switch out the knee pieces. I tried this and if you just straight up transfer the lower legs, the legs will bend forward. Don't know what knee pieces to use, but this more or less what you have to deal with.

Oh ok, i'll figure it all out when my Retaliation Firefly arrives, i'll see if i can mod FF's knees over SW's knees as kneepads or something. I forgot the FF knees would be molded onto the lower leg.
