Well you need a guy with a gun to encourage the runners to run faster and give their best performance at the olympics.  :lol:

Ok Cheng, here we go. First a sideshot wearing the cap normally.



Now I reverse the cap. It cannot actually snap down onto the head properly, just as hair cannot be snapped on properly.


A shot of how it looks from the front when it is on backwards, only half-way covering the eyes:


The inside of the cap:


Now, if we do tilt it far enough down to cover the face, this is how it looks from the back:


And now a sideshot of the two fat guys, who seem to have gotten in an argument about who is stronger. ;)


Hope those pics help. :wave:

I dont mind the fat clickies much, could always use other clickies in sportswear for it. All clickies in athletic wear seem to be thin, these guys could be used for clickies that want to get back into shape.  :)

thanks for those extra photos bb! ;)
ahh...too bad, the swimming cap is too short...its quite difficult to core underneath to let it be fulled further down her face and at least hide the rim of the rear of her head.
..and...too bad the weight thrower is just as fat as the lifter :P no olympics for me...maybe just buy the judokas for their belts ;D

looking at the sideview shot of the swimmer's cap, reversed, it can cover to just above the mouth but have to trim the head(a desperate last resort which i'm against of course) :P :o :D :P if i cant core/recess it further....so i'll custom a masked WWF wrestler with the weight lifter's body someday if Fi?ures doesnt launch one ;)

Can the legs of the gymnasts move independently?
I thought they were the same as swim suit klickies but I've seen an eBay advert where the gymnast is on the balance beam-one leg on the beam and one leg in the air.  :hmm:

No, they aren't made to move independently. It must have been a custom. It sure would be nice if they could!
