    That is awesome, good job. He is movie accurate, unlike Hasbro. I like the staff its awesome. I like how you colored his things blue.

    First off, thank you so much for all the great replies!

    I've had several requests on a neck-mod tutorial. I FINALLY got a few days off in a row at work, so I'm pleased to be able to share this very easy mod with you guys and gals. And......GO! Pictures are in order with the steps.

    STEP ONE:
    Remove these pieces from the Fallen. Everything simply pops right off except the red clear part that attaches his head. I had to dremel that a bit to get it off. Note the piece with clear plastic is from his back.


    STEP TWO:
    Using the ball-joint tool on my dremel, I simply created a round socket inside the Fallen's torso. Took about 10 seconds.


    PARTS:
    Here's the three parts that make the neck. Head, awesome loop ball-joint from a spare Movie Towline, and a rubber knee-wrap from a 3.75" WWE figure.

    STEP THREE:
    This cool joint simply CLICKS right into place in the Fallens head! It didn't even need any work! It's tight, and it actually seems like it's "supposed" to be like this! I was so glad to have something on hand that worked so well and easily! He can look any direction possible.

    STEP FOUR:
    Just put the knee-wrap over the ball joint...it's rubber and it looks like a cool hose on the neck:

    STEP FIVE:
    Just simply click the neck into the torso!



    Overall an easy mod if you have the tools. You can't tell it was even customized once together. It blends totally well, and the rubber neck cover combined with that cool joint allows him infinite neck movement!

    Good luck!
