The Brooklyn Brawler, Steve Lombardi!base: Terry Funk head, hat & shirt: Jakks Brooklyn Brawler calves and boots: SC Steve Austin pants & elbow pads: DM Triple H Some WIPs awaiting their heads: Do NOT touch Ms. Elizabeth! Okay, its taken some work, but I'm finally out of the Jakks mindset that all managers are the same height (or taller) as the men they managed. After careful observation, I noted that the top of Elizabeth's head reached Macho's mouth in real life, so that's what I was going for. Knowing Mattel has a Ms. Elizabeth in the works, I wanted something to stand-in until that day arrives. The Doctor of Style, Slick! This is a Mattel body, albeit from the DCUC line. Once they release a few more suited bodies, I will probably switch over to a WWE Mattel body, until then, here's my Slickster! He is a hair shorter than real life compared to the Twin Towers here, but with his hat, he doesn't appear to be too short. I really like the skinny, scrawny body from the DCUC Clark Kent. And my favorite manager, "The Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart! I really wanted a real pipsqueak for Jimmy, and this fits the bill! The Jakks version while nice for what it is, is built like a giant tank. This one isn't! The top of his head reaches Earthquake's chin, which is about right. Jimmy Hart's base is another Mattel body, this one is from a Dark Knight Joker thug. Enjoy! Wars

Utterly fantastic! Really great work there. I think you got the scale just right. I also love the random people in the crowd, like the A-Team

Love these customs! Slick looks really great! Hart does too. Great Elizabeth place holder until Matty releases one. Very Nice work!

Very nice work. By any chance are you doing a Heenan or Dynamite Kid head in the future. If so let me know as I'd like to order them if you do

Those are some really good base figures. Great work as always, Warsman! +1
I wonder how a TDK Movie Masters Harvey Dent or Marvel Legends Prof. X body would work?

They look great. I love how you have Patterson guarding Miss Elizabeth from the filthy fans.

I really like the size comparison on both Slick and Jimmy Hart, the detail in there outfits look very nice and I'm glad someone created some great mangers back in the years.

Thanks for the comments, guys! Very nice work. By any chance are you doing a Heenan or Dynamite Kid head in the future. If so let me know as I'd like to order them if you do I am! Both are up next along with the young Davey Boy, as I have plans for them in my figure fed! Especially Heenan! Thanks man, glad someone noticed, heh heh. I wasn't going to use him as the Jakks figures are too tall for her to be compared to, so that's why I explained about her height and Macho's chin and all. Compared to Pat, yeah, she's tiny, compared to Savage, she's pretty much right on. Boy, I hope so! Are you reading this, MDT? Probably better than the thug, but I went with what I had on hand, lol. Hopfully we get some even distribution and Michael Cole isn't quite so hard to track down and complete. Thanks man!
