I made a Hulk Hogan custom a few weeks ago and was so happy with the final product I figured I'd venture into making a few more customs that I considered to be relatively easy. I know a Hillbilly Jim would be best for Sid and I plan on going out to find 1 tomorrow, but would Jim also be good for Goldberg or is the body too tall?
I did a comparison between my Hillbilly Jim and Stone Cold legends figures and it seems like if I turned Jim into Goldberg it would tower over Austin, any better suggestions or ways to make him shorter?

goldberg, maybe a batista body... but its a bit toooo ripped... jim body.. but swap out the legs....

Jim would be good for both but u'll need to give Sid bigger boots & Goldberg smaller boots, I'd use Austin legs for Goldberg, can't think of good legs for Sid ATM

But Austin has that huge tat on his leg.
I'll use Austin body and many part swaps though for the Goldberg.

tats can easily be wiped out with 100% acetone which any hardware store will carry.
Jim's body is great but it's too tall for Goldberg
With some head switching here and there, Jim can make Diesel, Sid, and Bruiser Brody

I made a Sid, I used the Jim body and upper legs, Mr. Perfect lower legs, Sgt. Slaughter boots, and a classic SS Sid head. Mine came out pretty good, when I finish a few of my others I will post a group shot. Hope it helped a lil.

I made Sid with a Hillbilly Jim body and I swapped out the lower legs with Undertaker lower legs and boots and gave him bigger kneepads. BTW I didn't have a spare elite Taker or Kane so I have to use a basic Taker. I needed to trim the joint a bit so it would fit into the slot of the upper leg. I also painted the lower legs white so it looks like hes wearing tall white socks. Came out looking great. I think the best part choices for Goldberg would be Goldberg head, Hillbilly Jim body, Legends 1 Austin lower legs (acetone off the tattoo), Undertaker hands. That's what I eventually plan on doing. I also plan on eventually trying to use a Legends 1 Austin for a Kurt Angle custom.
