Wow, I really like the shape of that torso.
Is there any more information available about it?

Jeffajab · #3 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 08:30

Yeah, looks good. They should start working on "muscle" bodies too...

mgbb · #4 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 08:43

Arm options - This is something new!

dedguy · #5 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 08:59

I like this sudden arms race (har har) in body dev.

da Bronx Commando · #6 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 16:54

I'd like to see more pics of this one! Looks kind of like the Blitzway body.

MediumMack · #7 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 17:31

Look like a PERFECT intermediate between the standard articulated body, and the muscle body. This is the most excited I have been for a body in...well, ever I guess. Looks excellent, and hopefully will be very affordable too.

pukingdog · #8 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 17:58

So far so good.

dragonsleeper · #9 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 18:13

Interchangeable arms are great

The normal arms is too skinny. Also the muscular arm sleeves, while a good idea, should have just been incorporated from the get go (kinda like HT Prince Dastan nude) instead of becoming optional parts. That way, ZCWO can sculpt body hairs on them.

How does being optional prevent ZCWO from sculpting body hair on the arm?

Also, the arms are not sleeves. They are completely separate pieces that you can attach onto the body.

You're right, I didn't pay attention to the interchangeable joint text. I thought it was rubber/silicone sleeves. Sorry, my bad. This is super great then.

crusader1xxx · #13 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 19:33

Looks very familiar, very familiar....

That depends on how interchangable they are. If they snap in place, it could be just another easy thing to snap and break.

There are enough bodies with joint problems, including some of the better brands.

I think that's because it looks like an ACE torso. Almost exactly. And I like ACE bodies.

If that's the case it's no wonder I like it. I've been drawn to the ACE bodies since I first saw them.

pvtAsa · #16 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 20:37

I think it looks like Hottoys body. trigger hand is not good and so big!

96ekhatch · #17 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 20:55

Lol. It looks like frankenstein.....

Pretty cool concept though!

rollotomasi · #18 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 21:27

Looks promising... muscle arms would probably need to be beefed up more since its designed to be for show.
I see the torso design being more similar to HT's Slim.

cdn_rhino · #19 (**permalink**) 11-21-2011, 21:56

Check this out. The shoulder joint is different, but the body looks like ACE. Shoulder looks like HT or Barrack Sergeant.

dedguy · #20 (**permalink**) 11-22-2011, 04:02

I don't know how it looks like an Ace body? The shoulder construction is the type I think Hot Toys popularized but has since become standard on mostly all modern bodies.

justin_g · #21 (**permalink**) 11-22-2011, 06:41

Looks very similar to a Hot Toys slim body to me...

What female body with interchangeable arms are we talking about here?

I am very much in favour of sculpted arms because they look great even when covered with clothing. This body looks promising to me.

actionfiguremovies · #23 (**permalink**) 11-22-2011, 07:22

The shoulder joint looks like the notoriously breaking shoulder joint from Medicom. Hopefully this one will be stronger.

We'll see, huh?

Like I said it also looks like every other modern body on the market including the newer Sideshow bodies, Hot Toys, Soldier Story, ACI, Barracks Sergeant, Triad, ThreeA, etc. There's probably some newer that do as well that I'm not aware of. The 1/6 body landscape has become so good I stopped paying attention since almost all new bodies are good.

masamune · #25 (**permalink**) 11-26-2011, 10:08

Right now Kaustic is the way to go if you want a cool looking muscle body that resembles the Hot toys Terminator-T800, but you will not have to pay a hundred and sixty dollars (that's the average price on E-bay). That prototype do not look cool in my opinion. I wouldn't give twenty dollars for it.

dedguy · #26 (**permalink**) 11-26-2011, 10:21

The kaustic body is kinda weird proportionally and a bit small. It also has some weird sculpting, in particular the veins bug me in where and how they're used.

gunm · #27 (**permalink**) 11-26-2011, 10:56

Interesting...

I think Masamune meant the bulkier KP02 body which i think is going to be a hit.
I totally agree with you on the KP01, and the hips...!

dedguy · #29 (**permalink**) 11-26-2011, 12:38

Ah yeah, their new new body does look way better.

Before ZCWO there was just ZC and the female body with the interchangable arms is their "Eve" Body.
However they aren't really meant to be interchangable, they are removable so you can swap between their different upper torso covers.

But why ZC never realised their market potential and released any 'optional' arms is beyond me.
I think if ZCWO did realease Eve body upgrade 'seamless' arm kits that would sell out in no time because they have sold so many Eves and still use that same body on their current figures.

Personally, I think it's a great idea that's not been explored.
Broken elbow? or Damaged seamless skin? - Not a problem, just remove old arm and replace with new.
