I like that, but i'd like to see them make Sheva with a few outfits from the game. Her DLC stuff looked nice, the office attire was particularly amusing.

Now this figure is worth buying to me. I think the camo cloak looks cool.

This figure is badass. Loved this suit in the game.

Hey guys, need a little help from anyone with Hot Toys experience.

I'm planning to buy my first Hot Toys figure (which would be the Jill in the thread title of course) after I save up enough. And my question is: Would I be able to swap the blonde Jill head with that of the BSAA Jill's (I'm planning to spend the extra money to get the head off eBay - since I'm not that fond of her bleached look). I really know next to nothing about these figures, so any help/advice (even about Hot Toys figures or this figure overall) would be appreciated since they all seem to be rather expensive, I don't wanna go and break my first one or something.

I really wanted War Machine as my 1st, but at $250 to $300 plus - no way! So I settled for Jill (Battle Suit) at $175, since Jill (BSAA) is $250 plus also. And I'm liking that cloak.

Thanks in advance!

Personaly don't own any HT figures, I did pick up some HT IM parts for customizng, u pay more $$ per figure then almost any other company but the detail, quality and limited run factor is there, plus if u keep them moc or aleast hang onto the box, the item will hold it's value and normally double in the case of IM figures. I don't see why they wouldn't fit unless the hole support is smaller/larger. Headsculpts alone aren't cheap sometime if you're lucky you can snag em for 5-20$ but normally they're in the $50-100 range/head!

I'm actually pretty much able to buy this figure right now along with the head, but I think I've run into another issue I haven't even considered:

The issue would be the skin tones between the Battle Suit version and the BSAA version. Since Battle Suit is meant to be paler than BSAA due to Wesker's shenanigans. So does anyone own either of these figures? If so, I just wanna know if the tone differs slightly or greatly between the two. I really can't tell from the photos I've seen (and they're all high-res too ). Also, if nobody actually owns them and have a keen eye and can tell the difference, I'd appreciate any feedback!

If the difference is noticeable, then I'll just scrap the head swap idea and save myself the money (looking at $65 - $75 right now - ugh).

I could live with Jill's hair color if I had to - I guess.

Oh and @behindthemask - thanks for the help!
