Hey. So I was moving my figures around in my display and found an inconsistency with e55 neville. I remember noticing it at the time but as they were all like that, I intended just doing a fix-up.
Anyway the problem is that his legs from the swivel down are a different skintone.
Does anyone have any ideas on a possible leg swap? I can't find anyone with suitable height/skin/all-black boots.
Did anyone else have this problem?
Cheers.

I know that some people have used E53 Miz to do the swap and then just replaced the kickpads. All of them had this problem. The old Elite Neville (E42) was like that as well. It's because of the leg sleeves. They must've decided that moulding in black and painting skin tone was easier than painting black and moulding skin tone.

Cheers man, I mean it's a really cool figure but kinda wastes it too. |

My thing is that I feel that those legs in general are wayyyy too skinny. He should have slightly thicker legs to balance off that torso and bigger arms as well, Neville is pretty jacked.

Would e19 bryan work? I'm thinking of swapping legs and then replacing with neville's boots and kneepads.

I have both side-by-side and they look to be almost identical. I don't mind sacrificing that daniel bryan as I prefer his new one shown at SDCC anyway. I'm more reluctant as I've only ever head swapped before. Is it easy? |

Heat the lower legs for a few minutes. Then pop the legs off at the thigh cut. And then just pop them onto the other leg stems. Then just swap out the boots or knees down (whichever you’re more comfortable with) |
