Generally speaking it is the torso that needs tweaked. Marauder John always recommends running a blade around the inside the opening of the torso.

The Marauder products are designed to work across all builds. They are definitely more cross compatible from start to finish than the Hasbro figures inside the Joe lineup. Original 25th Joe heads are tiny and won't work very well at all with later figures. Legs and arms are all over the place. Many mods need to be done to get some things to fit remotely correct when piecing together Hasbro figures. Obviously there are some male vs female differences in the MTF product line, but if you want thicker thighs you can use male legs on a female waist. Customizing is an art more than a science. There are lots of ways to do things. Endless possibilities exist if you do not limit yourself to just popping and swapping. Not that there is anything wrong with that level of customizing - but there are limits as to what pops and swaps. I hope you find some enjoyment in the MTF line...

In my experience that hasn't been a problem. You only really need to file or shave just a hair's width off the interior of the socket to get a noticeable improvement on connecting/disconnecting the waist, and this won't have a major impact on "good" tightness, nor will it cause the waist to become disconnected accidentally. I prefer using a file rather than a blade, as it's a little easier to control.

I wasn't aware of MTF back when all the good parts in all the good colors were available, so yeah, I do disconnect and try on other parts to see what it looks like. I did that the other day and the shotgun shells I super glued popped off the web gear. Too bad the super glue didn't weld the pieces together.

Same here. Do they restock frequently? I have some new recipes in mind, but almost all of them rely on one part or another that isn't available at the moment in the colors I need. ::sigh::

How the heck did I get my Night ParaTrooper & Blue Trooper 2.0 before you?
Got them last Saturday 13th Aug 22, when I is on the West Coast. 🤯

We will know in about 24 hours.
If we do, I predict: Bug Hunt Elite Ops Trooper “Crimson” Troopers Camo Ninja

Ever since my first order, I've been watching and doesn't seem like many things are restocked or often. I had to order an entire body to get the pants I wanted, and even then in person the color was different from on screen. Maybe my monitor's color settings are off.
