We'll see.....

IMO, the best DC bodies to work with are the DC Collectibles Crime Syndicate Super Villains figures. They fit better with Legends scale figures than the other DCC/DCD lines and have Legends level articulation. They are basically boil/pop construction throughout too, which makes them super easy to work with (I think the pins cause issues primarily to being painted over, but they eventually pop out too). Only real issue with them is the sanding/sculpting needed to remove their details and symbols, etc. I used the Crime Syndicate figures to make Legends scale DC customs, and they worked very well; however, since the Grim Reaper body was introduced in the Ant-Man legends wave, Hasbro has filled the mid-build body type that the DCC figures were ideal for.
