Nick Fury's alternate body

[Solscud007]

Many of the Force Awakens torsos and legs prints are rather bland. They don't seem to pop as they are supposed to be Star Wars uniforms. Well looking at General Hux from the Kylo Ren Shuttle set 75104, his torso and legs look like they could be an alternate body for Nick Fury.

And here he is with Nick Fury's head.

Huh, General Hux's Coat sure looks really good on Nick Fury. I even like this version better than the official one.

That actually looks really good. Would you mind swapping the black gloves for Fury's hands and posting a picture? I'd do it myself but I don't have Hux yet.

That looks really good. Very interesting idea. My only qualms is the belt buckle thing looks a bit too large.

It just stands outs little bit to me. Otherwise, I would definitely do this with my own!

Yeah it is a bit big. But in some versions of Nick Fury he does have a metallic buckle. I don't mind it that much. The printing of the jacket edge on Hux body looks more accurate as Fury's iconic trench coat. Looking at Fury's body printing, the jacket curves up which looks odd.

Thanks! That looks great. I'll get around to Bricklinking Hux eventually.

I really like the upper body, especially the black shirt, but the lower body seems off to me. The black pants make the whole thing look like a uniform, which makes sense, that's what Hux had, but it's not what Fury wears. Also, the bottom edge of the new jacket clearly is designed to represent cloth, not leather.

On the whole, it's a quality substitution, but for now I'll stick with the original parts.

To each his own. The gray bothers me on the official Nick Fury as well as the length of the trenchcoat printing. When i think of how Fury looks, he is in all black. Like this picture below. The jacket should go past the knees. But the official one does not.
