What do you think the best figure body for a business suit would be (newer sculpt)? I thought the A-Team Face figure would be good, but the figure didn't look that well put together....

Any suggestions?

pricey but I'd go with the SDCC Destro

Slayer designs studios made one...go swing by their site and if it isn't shown, shoot an e-mail to Dave..I'm sure he can help

I think the Face body is amazing... I've stockpiled it for various uses.

there's also the DC Infinite Heroes suit figure. You slap a different set of arms on it and it looks pretty good.

agree with PYD. The Face body rocks. Swap out the glove hands for flesh hands, and you're good, unless you're dead set on a tie, in which case you might need to sculpt the shirt shut and add one. but the figure is the best from the AT line. Blends in with Joes seemlessly.

Also a kit bash from Henry Jones and Last Crusade Indiana Jones w/tie makes for a good suit body. Henry's arms & suit jacket + LC Indy's torso. I was able to a few of each when WM was clearancing them out a couple years back.

I'll try to locate a couple of Face bodies as that would probably be a good "casual" look.

I'm interested in looking at the slayer design - but after going through the site, I could find it. Anyone have a pic of what it looks like? Also, if you order a body from them, does it come assembled? I'm not really that great at drilling my own holes etc. on figures.

Thanks guys !
