A very interesting thread, many good points. I've taken notes :)

Couple of questions:-

Do you want P4 AND Michael versions?
Do you want the Michael version to follow his form exactly even if it looks as though he is wearing a bra?
Where a figure only shows the head and hands are you really concerned about how the rest is put together. I have various options:-

Standard conforming
Parent the head
Construct in similar manner to the P4 casual figures

Each gives an identical visual result but I accept perceptions will vary. What are your views?

Again my thanks for a very informative discussion.
