I'm looking to make a custom Mattel Alberto Del Rio. What is the best head to use?
Also, since TRU was having a sale I got an extra Mr. Perfect and Cowboy Bob Orton. I was thinking of throwing Orton's legs on Perfect and trying to make Bret Hart. Are there any problems that might arise from that before I start?
Update:
So I scrapper the Del Rio idea since I figure we will get a figure of him soon enough.
I started the leg swap for my Bret Hart custom. I got the legs off the bodies but now I can't get Orton's legs on Perfect's body or Perfect's Legs on Orton's body. How do I put the legs back on. I really need help!

Did you heat them before putting them back on?
What joint are you swapping them out from? Thigh or knee?
Heat is the key, I like a cup of fresh from my microwave after 1:30 water.

You have to heat the thigh part making them really soft. But don't heat the hip pieces (the part with the stems) Then put one side of the thigh on the hip and just keep twisting the thigh around the stem until it works its way around the stem

Check out this head, I always thought it would be cool for a Del Rio custom: cgi.EBAY LINK NOT ALLOWED/WWE-NUNZIO-SMACKDOWN-TNA-RAW-WRESTLING-ACTION-FIGURE-/250822176486?pt=UK_ToysGames_ActionFigures_ActionFigures_JN&hash=item3a662aaee6 |

If I change my mind I'll use it. Thanks. |
