Zoot Suit Riot.

Got a tip to share? Have a question about the hobby? Need input on parts or weapons? Have great idea for a custom figure or vehicle? Too lazy to do it, or just want to share the idea with others? All that and more goes in here.

does anybody have a recommendation for zoot-suit-type waist/legs?

a little beefy is ok.

by White Line Nightmare

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is Headman.

Maybe you could mod a Jedi or ninja skirt for the longer suit coat look?

by MJTanner

JvsC Dr. Mindbender upper legs and Headman's lower legs? Might look a little weird though.

by Cap

Headman's legs are indeed classic Zoot suit. I had some old photographs of my Da's brothers and such in some.

But where are you going to find that great hat with the long pheasant feaher?

When you have it together, please show this, because that would scream.

by joemichaels70

hm. nope.

while i would agree that the headman shoes may be zoot, the tucked/bloused pants are not -- and i'm looking for the equivalent pants more than the coat (don't need) or the shoes...

i hate to say it, but i might have to go with tunnel rat, or sculpt some meself...

Remember thsoe DICE robot figures from a couple of years back. One came with a perfect Zoot suit hat. It was the blue and silver bot with the Sankeyes esque mask.

I had wanted to make a zootsuiter as well but could never get the right parts.. but that hat would be perfect.

What about desert humvee Duke for the waist? Going to try that out myself for a custom
