I guess I can't realy take credit for this, I'll call this my sister's first custom figure. she took the coat and tightened it up with a couple seams on the sewing machine. She crimped it at the side seam that was already there and did a new stich from the arm pits to the waist to tighten it up a little, and then did a new stitch down the front on each side to lock the colar down and keep it from being all flappy.... anyways, maybe you can tell what I'm talking about by the photos:

Yeah, that does look better. But in all honesty, straight out of the box it's the best piece of fabric coat work I've ever seen in 18th scale. I'm happy with mine as is.

Bah, everyone should just make a fuzzy bondage bear suit so you can have Fury's Furry Adventures. Joking
In all seriousness she did a great job on modding that.

I agree, it's one of the best soft goods coats I've seen production wise for this scale, but as you can see it could have been perfected just a tad bit more... would one of you guys mind taking a photo of the stock version?

It's a TRU exclusive.
Kinda wishing now I could make these mods myself.
