My last day of summer vacation is tomorrow....so I spent this next to the last day working on my figs, changing up how I display them and I finished up some fix-ups and also also took some photos of a few that I have already done....enjoy:
I retooled this Hogan fix-up, I plan to make an Elite Hogan when I get a couple of Legend Texas Tornado figs
credit to Ralph for this one....I did nothing except take the photo, but it looks great doesn't it?
This is how I chose to display a quick-fix Macho Man
Probably my best Mattel fix-up to date: LOD
Probably my WORST Mattel fix-up to date: Jerry 'The King' Lawler...I can't paint worth a damn!...this was a left over Hacksaw Legends fig that I really threw together quickly-trouble is that is looks like it!
Token Andre fix-up.....until the new Mattel fig is available
Biker Taker......easy fix-up that looks great without a lot of effort
Here is a new one: Virgil...again made up of left over parts/accessories...the Hasbro head is a bit small, but it works for me.
vintage British Bulldog.....always like the beaded-hair version better
2 different Piper fix-ups.....I like the second one better as it is the EG fig w/ the better head scan and bigger body
A personal fave.....Sycho Sid
Dusty Rhodes without the polka-dots....NWA style!
Hey-Yo.....
Chris Benoit
I always had trouble making a Mattel Sting....first I used a Fit Finlay Basic body painted black, but the head was too big.....then I got the idea to do this:
this fig is actually a Luke Gallows fig w/a Sting head and a leather-like trench coat on it:
This is NOT a Mattel, but a old WWF fig I found at a flea market for $1....it was trashed, missing paint, etc.....I thought it cleaned up pretty well and was worth a look.
and here is my most recent pickup, which I got in a trade and then fixed-up a little......a Jesus beard CM Punk Elite:
Here is a link to some of my recent Jakks fix-ups, including a Wahoo which I just recently did, probably one of my best fix-ups ever:
