 Post subject: Need help on making a SNAKE

well, kind of anyway. I picked up the Iron Man movie Iron Monger with plans to make a SNAKE out of it. The thing is perfect. Size, look, everything except one problem. IT CAN'T MOVE AT THE HIPS! So, I was wondering if anyone knew what figures are easily available that have large size ball joints that might work well for the hips?

Wait until wave 1.5 comes out and buy the better version? viewtopic.php?f=11&t=7197

I'd think you could cut that figure out and build a nice cockpit right there.

If you don't want to wait, I'd say any of the marvel-legends-type Hulk figures would probably do. Or just the larger Marvel Legends (Maestro from the Apocalypse series or Abomination from the Onslaught wave come to mind...and since they came with BAF parts, they probably aren't that hard to pick up cheap).

Heh, I actually plan on gutting the second figure as well. Hulk, eh? I'll have to look into one of those. I really don't get this figure though. He's got knee and ankle joints on both legs, yet his right hip is useless thanks to the action feature and his left leg only has this weird V-crotch style joint to it that makes it also pretty much useless.
