After the back changes, David's transforming body was represented by a fake foam rubber torso, used in combination with a new facial appliance including more lupine teeth, a brow piece, hairpieces, and facial hair, as well as hand and arm appliances. The torso included an internal bone structure cast into the foam skin, as well as shoulder blades that were inclined at an angle. "That was the goofiest-looking stage," Baker admitted, "which fortunately went by pretty quickly. The face was still relatively human, but it had this thick, dark mane from the neck on back. It sort of reminded me of the 'goons' characters in the old Popeye cartoons. This make-up would be pretty together by lunchtime. David had the big rib cage and back on, hand appliances that only left him some use of his thumbs, the fur mane, the face and teeth and that's how he went to lunch. I have this hysterical memory of him trying to eat fish and chips all through all that and having a hard time of it."
