Title: Do any G1 heads match up with other G1 bodies?
Post by: sunshine29102 on January 06, 2016, 01:16:37 PM: Hi!
I don't have a ton of G1 baits lying around nor did I see a tutorial or link anywhere, so I wanted to ask you fellow customizers...

I was wondering which G1 heads fit onto other G1 bodies (as if they were interchangeable, and wit hour overlap or uneven edges) . For example, a shy pose earth pony head on a collector pose body? Or a Glory head on a collector pose body... or any other possible combinations.

This thought popped into my head today while thinking about a custom, and I thought maybe it would be useful to know this sort of thing so we could possibly salvage more Baity ponies in the future.

Thanks, yall!

(She's the leftover result of a custom South-African Blossom commission from pinkkittywinks! Which required Windy's body with Sprinkles' head to make. Many South African ponies seem to have mismatched heads/bodies!)

Maybe the Posey and Quackers heads? Or any pony in a mold that's in a simple standing pose?

I made this one years ago in 2006, its a Fizzys head and a sitting ponies body (dont remember which ones). Ok to be fair, I had to do a tiny little bit of fixing the edges but it was a minor correction only :)

I can't remember which pony baits these were from, but the poses are Dancing Butterflies body with a Star Dancer head.
